Life is often filled with challenges which affect each of us in different ways. I believe that how we approach and overcome those challenges, help to shape us and allow us to experience life to the fullest. I began my Marriage and Family Psychotherapy practice here in Glendora out of a desire to use my life experience, education, and passion to help serve the health needs of our community and the surrounding cities. Through my experience in a variety of settings, I have discovered that building a supportive relationship through therapy creates a safe place to explore life struggles, understand difficult issues, learn new skills, enrich relationships, and work through situations in order to lead a more authentic life. Creating a safe and supportive environment, where you can feel comfortable, is essential to my practice. In that setting, we can collaborate on how best to understand your situation, identify your goals, and find solutions. I bring a varied theoretical approach, centered on forms of therapy including psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral, brief/solution focused, and ensuring sensitivity to cultural diversity. My services include counseling individuals, families, couples and groups. • Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image • Relationships • Anxiety • Depression • Premarital • Grief & Loss/ • Parenting • War Veterans and Family • Counseling for Men • Endometriosis, Interstitial Cystitis, Infertility • Older Adults • Group therapy: Ongoing Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Group

We specialize in servicing long term care facilities that serve this population. However, we also service in-home clients, helping their parents cope with their children's behaviors, as well as school settings for kids who have a difficult time and exhibit behavioral problems. Our services primarily consist of assessing the problem, coming up with a workable behavioral plan, implementing that plan, and teaching all of the people involved how to run the plan. Formal training and presentations on Applied Behavior Analysis and developing behavioral strategies are also available. Our Executive Director is an author and well known in the San Fernando area who wrote the book "WHY WE BEHAVE" explaining why we have to behave to survive in this world and the more efficiently you behave, the more opportunities you have to succeed in whatever you are doing or want to do.

I see a variety of clients from ages 5 to 75. This includes people who have various life adjustment problems as well as those with personality and mood disorders. I treat children with play therapy for behavioral and other problems. Couples may require conjoint therapy for marital difficulties which may include other family members. And, of course, individual psychotherapy may be useful. I treat people who have suffered traumas caused by sexual, physical and emotional abuse which could result in depression, anxiety, social phobias, etc. I am able to assist people in overcoming self-defeating behavior which cause an inability to achieve goals in life. I use various types of therapy depending on the individual and types of problems he or she may be having. One very effective therapy technique is the utilization of inner voice dialogue with ways to conquer negative self-concepts. This may include bibleotherapy and worksheets depending on an individual's preference. Many first time patients are surprised to find that "talk therapy" can be so tension relieving. As a result, you may find yourself experiencing a lightening of moods and an enhanced sense of well-being. There's a great payoff in learning more about yourself.

Often psychotherapy is thought of as admitting failure - that you are unable to work out your own problems or just for crazy people. We are never taught the skills we need in relationships, how to process feelings about past events or make changes in our lives that will get us beyond a frustrating situation. Life and psychotherapy are processes. I feel that therapy is a process through which healing occurs and we discover meaning and purpose through which we become who we potentially are. There is no one right answer, there is only your answer that therapy can help you to discover. As a therapist I believe that deep inside every being is an innate wise core Self that can help one reach our potential. But often we are too distracted by our external environment to hear the voice of the Self or the Soul. In therapy it is important to address the whole person. I look for the potential in each person and help him or her to see it in as a beacon toward which to grow. Changing behavior is important, but I believe that change comes from the inside out. We need to believe in ourselves, our potential and find meaning and purpose in life that motivates us toward greater awareness, greater participation in life and greater appreciation of the opportunity life offers us for growth and fulfillment. I feel it is important to integrate spiritual beliefs into everyday life so that we act in relationships in a way that is consistent with what we believe and that we live our lives by the philosophy of our souls. This is important to our happiness and health and when we nurture our souls we contribute to the well being of family, friends, the workplace, society and our planet. Trauma, abuse and violence where trust and safety have been violated affect one’s ability to have and sustain relationships that are satisfying and nurturing. I work with victims of crime and abuse that is physical, sexual, verbal and emotional. This includes trauma recovery and healing. I also work with serious illness, death and dying and grief and bereavement. I work with all ages and address relationship problems within families, couples and groups in therapy. I have specialized experience, knowledge and training in “Spiritual Emergence / Emergency” in its many forms. I have a Transpersonal theoretical orientation, and work with creativity, intuition and spiritual experiences. I have training and knowledge in hypnosis, spirituality, parapsychology, consciousness, dreams, meditation, relaxation and visualization and Psychoneuroimmunology.

The Place Within offers skillful, affordable counseling and psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. At The Place Within, we believe that each person is gifted with the inner inclination, innate wisdom and natural ability for solving their own problems and creating more love, joy and satisfaction in their lives. However, everyone feels unsatisfied, unhappy, even lost at various times. We all face crisis of one type or another. While we can often move through these difficult times on our own, many of us find qualified, caring assistance and coaching helpful, perhaps even necessary, as an aid in wisely and courageously accessing our latent qualities and moving our one precious life toward what we are meant to be.

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

Relationships are essential to our overall health and well-being. Good connections develop and strengthen us, and are a source of encouragement and resilience in the face of life's difficulties and setbacks. Difficult connections are painful and can impair and even immobilize us. So it's important to attend to how we interact with others and find ways to improve the quality of our relational life. I focus on finding ways of developing healthier and more satisfying relationships with the significant people in your life. Whether it’s your spouse, partner, friend, co-worker, or a family member, they matter. Difficulty in any one of them can lead to anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck and confused. The solutions include understanding and improving your attachment style, personal boundaries, and developing skills for more effective communication, conflict resolution and problem solving. My approach integrates the psychological, relational, and spiritual dimensions of life that leads to making good choices for self-care and healthy connections.
