I’m a straight-shooter and while being kind and empathetic I will still call you on your crap if that’s what needs to happen. I come into therapy as a real person and I don’t think therapy should be stale and overly clinical. I value being approachable and honest in sessions and in life. I truly believe in the power of therapy and if you put in the time, the effort, and the work during the therapy process, you will absolutely be transformed. I will meet you right where you are at in this moment. I’m willing to invest in you… are you ready to invest in yourself? I have been providing therapy services since 2010 and have served a wide range of clients of different ages, cultural backgrounds, and life experiences. I have experience working with children and adults, including those with substance abuse and severe mental health disorders. I received my undergraduate degree (B.A.) and graduate degree (M.S.) from California State University, Fresno. I received my training in county-contracted agencies in the Bay Area and Central Valley serving youth and families with severe mental health needs, involved in the juvenile justice system, and child protective services. I use a strengths-based and client-centered approach with every client. I am trauma-informed and utilize a variety of evidence-based practices and theoretical orientations to best serve my clients. We call that being “eclectic” here in the therapy world. Currently, I provide individual, family, and couples therapy for the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, relational issues, adjustment to life stressors, and parenting. When I am not seeing clients I am collecting more plants, enjoying the goodness of the Central Valley, planning my next vacation, grabbing a delicious slice of pizza, and cooking a few family recipes here and there. I am a proud lifetime clinical member of the California Association of Marriage & Family Therapists. https://goldenowlfts.com/main daily 1.0 2024-06-06 https://goldenowlfts.com/404 daily 0.75 2020-06-29 https://goldenowlfts.com/privacypolicy daily 0.75 2024-06-06 https://goldenowlfts.com/termsandconditions daily 0.75 2024-06-06 https://goldenowlfts.com/noticeofprivacypractices daily 0.75 2024-06-06
