I work with people navigating their evolving identity, self-worth, relationships, life purpose, and psychedelic integration.

Hi, I'm Aimie. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) with experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My background is unique in that it combines traditional psychotherapy with years of behavioral training, allowing me to understand not only why people think and feel the way they do, but also how those patterns show up in everyday life.
Throughout my career, I've worked extensively with individuals with anxiety, ADHD, autism, depression, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, perfectionism, and life transitions. I also have specialized training in couples therapy and have spent many years supporting children and families navigating neurodiversity.
I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation with someone who truly understands you. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, accepted, and empowered to make meaningful, lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Oceanside
Searching for therapists in Oceanside starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy in Oceanside for concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look at the specialties, therapy styles, and populations listed in their profiles. Details like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples therapy, or experience with specific concerns can help you decide who may be a strong fit.
In a mid-sized coastal city like Oceanside, your best match may be near Downtown, Mission Avenue, Oceanside Beach, or available virtually from elsewhere in California. Some people prefer an office setting, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling options. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how they communicate, structure sessions, and describe what working together may look like.
Therapy in Oceanside can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can compare therapists in Oceanside, review profiles, 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.
