From Stuck to Empowered
Therapy for women who feel burnt out, stuck, or dissatisfied—and who are ready to build confidence, take courageous action, and create the life and relationships they truly desire.
Working with Me
Many women come to therapy feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. They don’t want to stay stuck in the past—they want to feel more confident, more grounded, and ready to create meaningful change.
My philosophy is something I call gentle discipline—building a new relationship with yourself that is empowered, compassionate, and intentional. It’s not about rigid rules or extremes, but about balancing grace with grit, pairing self-compassion with self–tough love. Together, we’ll explore where you’ve been silencing your needs or overextending yourself and begin shifting into a life where you trust yourself, honor your needs, and feel proud of the choices you’re making.
In our sessions, this may mean working on daily life goals like building healthier routines, practicing self-care, or making yourself a priority. We might also look at how past patterns show up in your relationships and practice new ways of setting boundaries, strengthening your voice, and taking courageous steps. Just as important, we’ll look forward—asking what you truly want for your life and relationships, and helping you take the steps to make that vision real.
This isn’t about endlessly dissecting the past—it’s about reclaiming your present, quieting the inner critic, and creating the future you desire with clarity and confidence.
Some of My Core Values
Self-Trust and Inner-Knowing
Learning to trust yourself is the foundation of change. When you stop silencing your needs or overextending yourself, you create space for confidence, balance, and a life that feels true to you.
Clarity Through Action
Change doesn’t happen from overthinking—it happens when you take small, courageous steps. Together we focus on aligned action, so growth becomes something you live, not just talk about.
Connection is the Medicine
Real healing and empowerment don’t happen in isolation. Feeling seen, supported, and safe—both with yourself and in relationships—creates the strength to move forward.
Sessions and Options
60-minute session (online or in-person): $160
Sessions are tailored to what you most need in the moment. Some weeks we may focus on boundaries, relationships, or self-care; other weeks might be about taking courageous steps toward change. There’s no required commitment—you can pay as you go and decide the pace that feels right.
While my focus is on helping women feel more confident, empowered, and grounded in the present, I’m also EMDR trained and got EMDR-certified in 2021. I offer EMDR therapy if you want to work more directly with past trauma. EMDR can be a powerful option for clients who feel ready to release old experiences that continue to affect their lives today.
At this time, I am credentialed with Loma Linda Risk Management insurance. For all other providers, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.
Education & Credentials
I earned my Master’s degree in Marital and Family Therapy from Loma Linda University, and my bachelor’s in Social Sciences (with an emphasis in Psychology, Sociology, and Economics) from Cal State San Bernardino. I’m a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and a certified EMDR therapist through EMDRIA.
A little more about me…
Outside of therapy, you’ll often find me moving or creating—whether through CrossFit, pottery, gardening, yoga, or hiking with my dogs. I recharge in nature, love exploring new places, and value time with family and friends.
