Peace and Harmony, I am licensed in Arizona with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, & trauma and abuse. In our world of constant change, we have to define our authentic self, forgive and heal from past trauma or issues, live in the present, and continue progress for the future. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, I provide comprehensive counseling, diagnosis, and treatment for clinical disorders, to everyday life situations.
I have 15 years of experience providing treatment services in psychiatric hospitals, outpatient mental health agencies, substance abuse treatment programs and correctional institutions.
I utilize evidence based therapeutic techniques in CBT and other therapeutic treatment modalities to help client's reach a level of acceptance and balance to be able to manage life without becoming overwhelmed by it. I encourage my clients to grow, heal, and develop to reach their optimal health and wellness using evidenced base interventions and apply a culturally sensitive integrated approach that embody, empathy, and respect., I encourage clients to increase their self-esteem, self-awareness, self-love, self-growth, and to foster healthy connections with others through positive healthy constructive change.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
