                     HEAL

​I graduated from Santa Clara University in 2009, with a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology with a Health Emphasis.  I have been licensed since 2016.  Specifically, I researched and wrote about issues pertaining to infertility, grief, and loss.  I also did research and wrote about adolescents diagnosed with conduct disorder.  Also, I have studied the importance of the mind/body connection and offer techniques to support Mindfulness techniques.  These are skills I use in my practice and my own life, today.

In addition to other areas, I specialize in infertility and how it impacts individuals, couples and families.  Also, I specialize in grief and loss issues, as they arise when we experience a multitude of different challenges in our life, including: a death of a loved one or pet, loss of a job or relationship, and an unwanted health diagnosis as well as other unexpected changes in one's life.  

I also have over 15 years of experience working with adolescents and families in the juvenile justice system.  Specifically, I have worked with young people who have dealt with bullying, child abuse, anxiety, depression, peer pressure and family related problems.  I am experienced in working with young people who have suffered from trauma, abuse, and have participated in self-harming behaviors.  

One area that I am very passionate about is helping clients to find their voice and to develop healthy boundaries in relationships.  I find that this area of my work has helped all of my clients and they leave our work feeling more confident, self-assured and lead happier lives.
