About

I am a lifelong seeker of truth, wisdom, and the arts with an innate passion for human psychology. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and have more than 10 years of experience working in the field with a strong emphasis in health psychology, trauma-informed care, and a focus on human potential. I received my doctorate in clinical psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University in San Diego, California. My training and clinical experience covers a wide range from school-age children to older adults with various diagnosis including, but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma response, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, severe mental illness, chronic pain, chronic disease, and lifestyle choices.

Despite my formal schooling, I always had an innate, burning desire for understanding human nature and the laws of nature that govern us. I believe in the merging of eastern and western philosophy in reaching our true human potential; and therefore, use an integrated approach in my work comprised of existentialism, client-centered, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness amongst others.

I believe in the power of self-healing and that we are innately resilient. Sometimes we need guidance to awaken those aspects within ourselves. As a result, we will work on the mental blocks, self-defeating beliefs, and unhealthy patterns that have inhibited you from reaching your true potential in life.
