Welcome to my Practice!
Thank you for considering me to work alongside you as you embark on a journey of personal growth, self awareness and transformation.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S), Registered Sandplay Practitioner (RSP) & SoulCollage® Facilitator. I offer a holistic, trauma informed approach to therapy that focuses on the underlying issues instead of just treating the surface symptoms.
My practice integrates Depth/Jungian Psychology, Attachment Theory, Sandplay Therapy, Play Therapy along with other forms of Expressive Arts Therapies that can facilitate unconscious material to come to the surface for processing at a pace that feels right for each client. All forms of Expressive Therapies are a complement to talk therapy and are suitable for all ages, including adults.
Currently I am working predominantly with teens and adults seeking personal growth, healing and empowerment of their inner child. I also offer play therapy supervision to therapists.
Please note I do not take any court ordered family cases, high conflict divorce cases or provide custody recommendations.
I have particular interest and experience in the following areas:
I have experience working with intact, divorced or separated families, military, blended, adoptive and foster families, immigrant and multicultural families, same sex couples, as well as single parents and children raised by their grandparents.
My practice is LGBTQ+ friendly.
Sessions can be in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
