Counseling in San Carlos, CA. Find the Right Therapist.

Specializing in trauma and anxiety resolution with adults, teens and children for over 22 years. Using effective approaches including EMDR and play therapy, I work with passion to help clients overcome their greatest struggles within a warm and supportive healing space.

We get it – trauma can be stubborn, affecting everything from our body to our relationships. Refuse to let the haunting of your past control your present or dictate your future. Let's kickstart your journey to healing and growth, one defiant and sassy step at a time!

I recognize how daunting it is to look for a therapist. My approach to the work is collaborative, warm and inquisitive mixed with good humor. I help clients find their way back to well-being with a renewed sense of resilience.

I work with you to develop a safe environment in which you can explore difficult emotions and life events. My goal is to guide you to understand past/present behaviors and feelings in order to create a life that more deeply resonates with you.

I am here to support you with an open mind and heart. Whether you are going through life struggles, mental health issues, or are looking for personal growth and development, we can work together to plan a course of therapy that meets your needs.

I aim to help patients talk honestly, with the goal of discovering the source of their suffering; that way, we can find the right path to a fulfilling life.
