Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Temecula, CA

Do you ever wonder if you, a loved one, or a friend have ADHD or Autism? You deserve a therapist who truly gets it and I am the one for you. Neurodiversity has been the heart of my work for most of my 40 years in practice. I spent 15 years at Kaiser, where I helped create and lead autism programs across Southern California. Today I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, and I focus on adults.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Sonoma County with six years of clinical experience working with young people and families. I've worked across a range of settings including intensive residential treatment, county behavioral health, and outpatient care, and I bring that breadth of experience into my private practice. I specialize in navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, family conflict, and life transitions.

Beginning therapy can be one of the hardest steps, especially when you have had to navigate mental health stigma, having your emotions dismissed, difficulty prioritizing your needs, or having years living a state of trauma, or survival mode.

I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. I have a deep passion for trauma work and rebuilding a sense of safety. I frequently work with clients who are overwhelmed with carrying high expectations, including BIPOC individuals.

Hi, I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with veterans, first responders, and people in high-stress or high-responsibility roles. I also provide care in English, Russian and Ukrainian languages.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a specialization in spirituality and depth psychology. At the heart of my work is a deep belief that healing begins with self-love and unconditional acceptance — for yourself, not just others. I've seen how harsh self-judgment holds people back, so I bring a compassionate, non-critical presence to every session. I also believe strongly in building graceful boundaries and healthy self-care routines as the foundation for a fulfilling life. Whatever has brought you here — grief, a difficult relationship, trauma, or simply a desire to know yourself better — I'm here to walk alongside you without judgment.

I'm a licensed psychologist working with adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, grief, significant life changes, or challenges with attention and focus. My goal is to offer a safe, affirming space to explore your life, your story, and what matters most to you — your experiences, your values, and where you hope to go. You are a complex, whole person made up of many parts — and there is room here for all of them.

What patterns keep repeating in your life, even when part of you wants something different? I work with infants, children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, with a particular focus on experiences that are hard to put into words: the quiet accumulation of feeling disconnected or unseen, questions around adoption and family origins, infertility, the emotional weight of becoming a parent, and the grief that comes when life takes an unexpected shape. A lot of what brings people to therapy is not a single event. It builds. I trained at UCLA and bring both clinical depth and genuine warmth to this work.

I am a LCSW. My background includes working in the prison system, medical social work, school social work and the foster care system. I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ people, veterans, trauma victims, first responders, and survivors of domestic abuse.
