I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from San Diego State University in 1991 and have dedicated my career to supporting individuals with ADHD, bipolar disorder, and depression. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques, I tailor my care to each client’s needs. Together, we work toward building understanding, balance, and empowerment in a safe and welcoming environment.
My Clients
I chose a career in mental health because I am passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges with tools they can use every day. Whether addressing family concerns, managing attention difficulties, or simply providing a supportive space for someone to feel heard, I’m inspired by the unique needs and resilience of each person I meet. My goal is to guide clients toward meaningful change with a compassionate and practical approach.
