As a very engaged and empathic therapist, I work with my clients to discover what they are wanting to achieve in therapy and what they've already tried that hasn't worked. Then together we come up with a strategy to work through where they might be stuck and construct a path forward. A combination of insight and values driven action typically leads to improvement for the conditions they present with. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health pr...

My treatment style is collaborative, and I strive to create an inviting space. I'm a therapist with Octave and E...
I have worked in the mental health industry for 20-plus years. I use Solution-focused Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy and find that using these modalities allows myself and the client to get to the bottom of their challenges and find their best self. My main goal is for the client to see how amazing they are and to not live or see life through a critical, distorted lens. Life can be a challenge but you are worth the work. I'm a therapist w...
I have significant experience working with older populations and gerontology. I practice from a Humanistic or Person-Centered perspective. This means I believe in the potential and inherent desire of people to grow and develop into their best selves. Many times - whether due to their childhood upbringing, relationships with caregivers and primary attachment figures, their culture, oppression, education/instruction, religious institutions, or beliefs about self - individuals are prevented from de...

I've worked with parents in the Sacramento area for 2 decades now, but as my own children have grown into young adults I have also made a shift into working with college students of any age. I'm not sure whether it's an openness to learning that extends to person growth, my ability to relate to the challenges of academia, or what exactly makes the relationship so successful, but I have found it to be mutually beneficial to the students I work with. I use an eclectic approach of mindfulness, psy...
