ABOUT ME

Wholehearted Commitment

From a young age, I knew I wanted to help others. After exploring various careers, I finally found my calling when I decided to become a child therapist and began my Master's program in counseling psychology with an emphasis in depth psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute. With 10 years experience working with children in both therapeutic and academic settings I utilize a child-centered approach grounded in family systems theory. Previously, I worked as a academic specialist at e3 Consulting supporting children with learning differences and as a behavior interventionist in the classroom supporting children with social-emotional and behavioral issues. I have also worked as a school counselor serving students within Oceanside Unified public schools.

I provide comprehensive, individualized treatment to help boost self-esteem, facilitate healing and growth. I offer positive parenting strategies and positive reinforcement systems to encourage children to adopt new behaviors. I work closely with your child and family in order to best meet your child's needs.
