Psychologist | Clinical
28494 Westinghouse Pl Suite 314 Valencia CA, 91355About
My therapeutic approach is to be active and directive, and to provide emotional support and practical feedback to help you effectively address personal life challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship distress, death, divorce, career issues, and adolescent adjustment, among others. I integrate effective methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client, although my focus tends to be within the cognitive behavioral therapy framework. With compassion, empathy and understanding, I work with each individual to help you build on your strengths and to attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing.
