Affirming Therapy Of Orange County

About Us

" I provide individual, couples, and family therapy at my private practice on the Huntington Beach Hospital campus. Much of my work is with clients struggling with anxiety, dysphoria, or depression, or in their relationships with their romantic partners/spouses or their families-of-origin. I find strengths theyve forgotten they have that can be used to defeat their problems. I use Narrative and Cognitive-Behavioral therapies and when working with couples I use Emotion Focused Therapy. Research has shown that 70-75% of couples who undergo EFT become closer and more intimate and 90% of them show significant improvements. ", My style is warm, non-judgmental, kind, and attentive. When I am working with you, I am truly *with* you. I privilege humor and gratitude in my therapy and I attend not only to the psychological, needs of my clients but also to their physiological and spiritual needs. , I am well-connected in the community and can provide referrals to culturally competent professionals (pharmacists, physicians, psychiatrists, endocrinologists, etc.) when indicated. A portion of my fees is donated to amFAR (The American Foundation for AIDS Research).
