Working with me is about discovering and building on your core strengths. My office is a safe place to dream, question, and grow. The reward IS worth the risk. My all time favorite vision quote: "Vision is greater than baggage." (S.R. Covey) *For example, gambling, pornography, drug or alcohol abuse. I specialize in making relationships, attitudes and habits focus like a laser beam on the life goal you're seeking. I'm trained by the California Office of Problem Gambling (OPG) to serve clients and families of clients with gambling addiction. (Funding for treatment is provided entirely by OPG).

I have been in private practice in south Orange County for 26 years. I specialize in children and adolescent therapy using play therapy, individual, and family therapy. I treat depression, anxiety, behavior problems, school problems, ADHD, and stress to name a few. I use a psychodynamic and attachment model that enables me to go beyond treating the symptoms to getting at the root cause of behavior. I firmly believe in working with the parents. If working individually with a child I believe that it is important to have periodic meetings with the parents to coach them in recommended changes, but also with them create a treatment plan and be able to follow up during treatment. My expertise in child development and attachment also enable me to work very effectively with adults who are experiencing depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, relationship problems in marriage, work, parenting, and significant relationships.

We all go through tough times in life and sometimes need a guiding hand to get through it.

I strive to help my clients create balance and develop healthy boundaries in their life so that they may find the peace and happiness they are striving for. I use an eclectic array of modalities to help my clients towards their goals. A few of the methods that I use are meditation and mindfulness, art therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, Hypnotherapy, narrative therapy and pet therapy (through the company of my trusty partner and certified therapy dog Rama). I offer my clients a holistic approach to therapy- taking a look at all of the factors in their life that may be contributing to their pain or struggles. One step at a time we can overcome these hurdles together. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

"Life isn't about finding yourself. It is about creating yourself" - George Bernard Shaw -Do you yearn for that special someone? -Do you feel lost and confused right now, not sure in which direction to go? -Do you find you rarely have time to do the things you want to do, leaving you feeling resentful or guilty? If you find that these questions are your questions, I can help. Often there are times in life where we seem to “hit walls.” Nothing we do seems to be right, negative thoughts and worries run rampant. Our loved ones complain about our behaviors or moods that we can’t seem to control. Feeling hopeless and overwhelmed, we panic, feel anxious, depressed, sad and hopeless. It’s common to want to run away, distract ourselves, just give up, or blame others. Every artist dips their brush in their own soul, and paints their own nature and creates their own picture. As a practical, interactive, solution-focused therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. With sensitivity and compassion, I help clients find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. What I tell my Clients is that if you do not define you, someone else will. Blending conventional and alternatives approaches, I draw on a variety of styles and techniques to incorporate what will be most helpful for each client. I work with each client to help them build on their strengths to identify and achieve life goals. Work on conflict resolution with a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, achieve the personal growth in all areas of your life. “Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself.” ~Carl Jung Why do people seek therapy? Some have to suddenly respond to unexpected changes in their lives, while others seek self-exploration and personal growth. When your old ways to cope are overwhelmed by guilt, doubt, anxiety, or despair, therapy can help. Coping skills are learned as are boundaries and my form of counseling can provide support, problem-solving skills, and new, improved enhanced coping for issues such as lack of confidence, relationship troubles, unresolved childhood issues, bereavement, spiritual conflicts, stress management, body image issues, and creative blocks. “Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself.” ~Carl Jung Our work together will provide new meaning to old problems. Move away from crisis today. If this resonates, I can help you find the joy in life you deserve.

It is essential for each of us to discover our own way of being. Frequently, in therapy, people often feel frustrated because they don't feel they have the ability to change their situation. It is not always easy to face our problems or seek another's help. The daily stresses of life can build until we feel completely overwhelmed with life. Many who first come to therapy report feeling lost, alone, or depressed and many feel confusion and hopelessness about the future. These feelings are very normal yet most people feel as if they are falling apart. It is important for each of us to allow ourselves the space to reflect upon our day to day life and our future. Therapy is just that opportunity. It allows us to work through some of the most difficult struggles life can impose on us in an atmosphere of acceptance and unconditional support. Competent therapists do not offer solutions or take sides. They help clients work out solutions according to individual values and lifestyles. Seeking professional assistance is a sign of courage and a willingness to deal with life's many changes

I love working with clients who feel like their hope is gone. By examining the root of their problems I work with them to create deep and lasting change.

They often require a wise and compassionate guide into a deeper journey that can't be done alone.

Understanding who I am, why I think, feel and behave the way I do - learning to change how I think, and change the rest of my life ahead - its time to get moving in this direction!

Do you attract healthy people into your life? Can you identify healthy and safe people from those who are not? I look forward to hearing from you and making the rest of your life the best part!
