Training and Experience
I have a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University and a Marriage and Family Therapy License #45031. I have a B.A. in Psychology from UC Riverside.
My training is grounded in archetypal and transpersonal psychology. I have complimentary formal trainings in Interpersonal Neurobiology, Expressive Arts, Psychedelic-assisted Psychotherapy, Child Therapy (Gestalt, Sandtray, Mindfulness for children, CBT), Yoga, and Shamanic healing (energy work). I bring mindfulness practices into our sessions to support you to deepen and understand your present-moment experience more fully, whereby gaining clarity of your inner world, increasing your intuition & self knowledge, and reducing anxiety. Many years of studying and practicing yoga have informed me of how to help support you to integrate the inherent health and wisdom of your body, mind, heart, and soul.
I have co-facilitated earth-honoring rituals to acknowledge changes in season and to honor and celebrate an individual's transitions in life. Bringing together all of these life experiences and practices, I have created an integrated way to support each person's unique process. As a child and family therapist, I’ve immensely enjoyed my work with individual & groups of children and collaborating with families in school-based programs and in private practice since 2002. I have clinical experience in a range of settings: health clinics, public school-based programs, and community mental health agencies. I am licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. My license number is MFC # 45031 and can be verified by visiting the California Board of Behavioral Sciences. Ketamine Therapy & Shamanic CounselingI offer Ketamine assisted therapy and Shamanic Counseling (both as an adjunct to psychotherapy if interested). Please see my website Elemental Wisdom for more information.
