LONG Description
These are extraordinary times filled with grief, change, and uncertainty. Finding the right person to walk alongside you can provide a deep sense of connection, support, and guidance.
My treatment model is a compassionate and collaborative one, tailored to meet your individual need.
My experiences working with grief/loss, trauma, and transitions in therapeutic settings and academic teaching allow me to pull from a variety of learned modalities integrating somatics, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, earth-centered practices, and ritual.
I have a passion for working with individuals, couples, and exploring group processes, and have facilitated psychoeducation and support groups in many contexts for many years. I serve as an adjunct professor in the Counseling Psychology Department at Dominican University of California, where I developed and teach the Domestic Violence and Geriatrics and Long-term Care courses
in the graduate program.
What I offer is a holding space that is gentle, loving, and safe, helping you to establish attainable goals, identify obstacles, and bringing greater presence and joy to your journey. While I embrace a client-centered model, I will help you to identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, pushing you to make the changes you yearn for.
I look forward to taking this journey with you.
