Therapist

My journey into mental health began with a deep interest in the intersection of human behavior and emotional resilience.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults going through life transitions and experiencing trauma. My current practice includes individual treatment helping adults with anxiety and depression, self-esteem/confidence, grief, trauma and life transitions! Finding a therapist with whom you connect with is important.

Over the past 14 years, I have worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, community clinics and public school settings. These experiences have shaped my belief that therapy is not a "one-size-fits-all" process, but rather a collaborative partnership built on trust and evidence-based strategies!

I hold a Master of Social Work from California State Long Beach as well as a Bachelor of Social Work from Azusa Pacific University..

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Fullerton

Searching for therapists in Fullerton starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare Fullerton therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist offers approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.

Fullerton is a smaller city, so local in-person availability may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping access to a therapist licensed in California. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you understand how a therapist structures sessions and communicates with the people they support.

Therapy in Fullerton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, review estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
