Do you feel like something is wrong with you? Do you wish it would all just stop and go away? Is your child acting out and you don't know why or what to do? If you have had any of these thoughts, then you're in the right place! My practice is based around what happened to us, not what is wrong with us. I am here to support & guide you in processing thoughts and feelings, reflect on experiences, learn new coping skills, and figure out next steps. I will listen, teach, brainstorm, guide and help you build tools to meet your goals.
I am pleased to meet you on your journey of self care and growth! If you have ever felt stuck or overwhelmed, you are not alone. I work with adults navigating life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma, grief/loss, family conflict, mood regulation, coaching, Christian counseling, cultural and systemic issues to name a few. Some areas I've worked in are healthcare, schools, adoptions, hospice etc. I will create a safe, supportive space as we do the work to obtain the type of life you want and reach your goals.
I believe the best work happens when you feel comfortable, understood, and supported. My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself—no pressure, no judgment, and no need to have everything figured out before you start. We’ll work together to explore what’s bringing you in, what matters most to you, and what you’d like to change or better understand.
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Each person is different, so our work will be tailored to your needs, your goals, and your pace. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, going through a transition, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, I’m here to help you move forward in a way that feels manageable and authentic.
What I Bring to Our Work
- A welcoming, nonjudgmental space
- Thoughtful listening and honest, compassionate feedback
- A balance of insight and practical tools you can use outside of sessions
- Support that’s personalized to you, not a preset formula
If you’re looking for someone who is easy to talk to, genuinely supportive, and invested in your growth, I’d be glad to work with you and see if we’re a good fit.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Vista
Searching for therapists in Vista starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches listed in each therapist’s profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. These details can help you understand whether a therapist’s training aligns with your needs.
Vista is a smaller North County city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger areas nearby. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you see a therapist licensed in California. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what a first session may be like.
Therapy in Vista can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can filter by location, specialty, virtual or in-person care, and availability, then review therapist profiles and book directly when you’re ready.
