Specialties
I am a counselor and art therapist currently working with private clients (children, adolescents and adults) in Huntington Beach, California. I help individuals who experience depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, social skill deficits, relationship conflict, and behavioral challenges grow, heal and make lasting change. Previously, my work with past clients has been in a variety of settings, including an after school counseling center, residential homeless shelter, private practice, and in outdoor settings using animal-assisted therapy as well as surf therapy. Working with diverse populations in various settings has allowed me to truly customize therapy sessions and provide holistic treatment to meet client needs and goals. I create a compassionate and relaxed yet transformative space for individuals to explore and heal through self-awareness, art, mindfulness, coping strategies, and behavior and lifestyle adjustments.
