counseling for teens and young adults who want to heal, grow + know they’re loved
in-person therapy in Orange County, CA + virtual sessions for residents throughout California
I use quite a bit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but also see therapy as a relationship above all and believe that healing starts and ends in secure relationship that allows us to see our belovedness, face our brokenness, and become more of who we are meant to be.
My goal is to provide a place of rest where each client is safe and accepted, lovingly challenged, and empowered to take steps towards a more loving, fulfilling + free life. As a follower of Jesus, I trust God as the ultimate authority + source of wisdom.
Counseling with me often includes:
learning how to slow down + be mindful
exploring feelings and emotions
noticing + correcting unhelpful thought patterns
looking at core beliefs
seeing how things connect + make sense (ex. how the past connects to the present)
gently facing fears
owning and learning from mistakes
and collaborating with parents to create a healthier home + parent-child relationship
My education and training includes a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from UCSB, a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from CUI under Dr. John Townsend, and a Certificate on Foundations of Child + Adolescent Counseling from the American Counseling Association. I have been counseling young people for over 4 years.
I don’t want you to just survive. My goal is for you (or your teen) to be free and flourish. I'd be honored to be part of your or their journey. If you’re curious and want to see if we’re a good fit, please get in touch using the button below.
I specialize in helping hurting teens + young adults. My clients often come in with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and insecurities. They tend to be sensitive, over-thinkers, get 'stuck' in their heads, and/or struggle socially to some degree.
