I strongly believe that every human being should have a safe, calm, and supportive space to process and heal in their own time and I commend you in making the first step towards your own unique journey of healing. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (CA 119971) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (CA 8920) who is under the supervision of Briana Smith, LMFT (CA 117210), I aim to provide therapeutic interventions focused on education, empowerment, and unconditional positive regard.
I received my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hope International University in Fullerton, California. I have extensive experience providing services in several different settings with different populations to include individuals, couples, families, and facilitating group therapy. I have worked with and provided therapeutic services to children, adolescents and adults in short-term and intensive residential treatment facilities and community mental health primarily focused on the treatment of Substance Abuse and or Co-Occurring Disorders.
I am an EMDR trained therapist specializing in trauma and stress related issues and am also a Reiki Master/Teacher who has experience supervising, training and mentoring other clinical team members including other psychotherapists and case managers. I also am bilingual and fluent in both English and Spanish.
