Professional Profile
I work with a diverse group of clients, including children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I am able to help individuals of all ages with a wide range of issues, including depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma. With children, I also help with ADHD, emotional and behavioral problems, while supporting parents in developing effective parenting skills. Bilingual in English and Spanish, I enjoy working with individuals from varied groups, including the LGBTQ community and those from differing ethnic backgrounds, helping them achieve their goals and reach their full potential.
Multi-State Practice & Family Therapy
Although I have relocated to Virginia, I remain fully licensed to practice in California and continue to see clients there. Additionally, I am PsyPact certified, which allows me to provide teletherapy services across a broad network of participating states.
This certification offers a unique advantage for family work: I am able to conduct integrated family therapy even when members are located in different states. This is a specialized capability, as psychologists physically located in California are restricted from practicing across state lines via PsyPact. This flexibility ensures continuity of care for families who are geographically separated or in transition.
Specialization & Approach
While my specialty is in working with children, having such a foundation deeply informs my work with adults. It allows me to fully understand and address the underlying dynamics stemming from childhood that often shape adult behaviors and emotions.
My therapeutic style is integrative, drawing from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), and family systems orientations. I tailor these approaches to meet the specific needs of each individual and family.
