I am a licensed psychologist in South Orange County, California, with more than 20 years of experience working with adults, couples, and teens, as well as marginalized and underserved populations.
My approach to psychotherapy is a combination of insight-oriented, psychodynamic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I find this to be highly effective in transforming self awareness into change. With my Catholic clients, I also utilize Church teachings, principles and faith practices and apply them to therapeutic techinques to bring about a more complete integration of body, mind and soul.
I specialize in pre-marital and couples therapy, grief counseling, anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, sexual and pornography addiction, and trauma.
The therapeutic relationship is dynamic and requires the full participation of client and therapist. I am fully engaged in the process and committed to helping facilitate the changes needed for each client to find deeper peace, more fulfilling relationships, and more lasting contentment.
I am a licensed psychologist in South Orange County, California, with more than 25 years of experience working with adults, couples, and teens, as well as marginalized and underserved populations. I specialize in pre-marital and couples therapy, grief counseling, sexual abuse, sexual and pornography addiction, trauma, anxiety, and depression. Although I was raised a Catholic, my true conversion started about 15 years ago after facing devastating personal trauma and adversity. My gradual transformation as a Catholic has rooted my clinical work in the application of both biblical truth and evidence based psychological practices, and a deep desire to share the healing power of God's Word, mercy, hope and love.
I currently have a private practice in Laguna Hills, California, as well as a grief ministry a local Catholic Church where I offer group and individual counseling services to parishioners in need.
