  Licensed marriage and family therapist in ca; certified supervisor

  Adolescents are my specialty. The goal in life isn't just to be happy. It's to feel the entire span of human emotions and be okay with it. By gaining this strength, we can stop reacting to the outside environment and sit with emotions as they come and go allowing us to remain centered and become who we truly are.I believe the therapeutic process should be interactive and I'm aggressive, while empathic, in my attempt to help people search for their truth. I'm interested in human connection. What makes you you? What do you think about? What hurts?* Certified EMDR practitioner * Certified Supervisor* Two weekly process groups for AdolescentsTuesdays 4:15-5:45Wednesdays 4:15-5:45 Show less
