Associate Marriage and Family TherapistI am an AMFT focused on working with older adolescents and emerging adults. Having spent decades as a manager and director in the marketing world, the MFT is my second career where I can apply my life experience to help young people at a pivotal time—when they need support, guidance, and someone who cares. I completed my practicum at Chapman University where I treated a diverse group of college students for social anxiety, depression, PTSD, LGBTQ+ and relationship issues, body dysmorphism, and depersonalization. Highlights:• Assisted Chapman students who were returning after two years away due to COVID-19. Social anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties were predominant.• Helped clients with an integrated approach of CBT, brief psychodynamic, exposure, and attachment-based therapies, and mindfulness practices.• Developed strong, trusting therapeutic relationships by being authentic, trusted, and caring.• Became proficient in case conceptualization, interventions, treatment planning, and case management.• Helped many clients experience meaningful improvement and reach their therapeutic goals.Education | CertificationsI graduated from Pacific Oaks College with Trauma Specialization, 4.0 GPAPassed the CA Law and Ethics Exam, July 2024Hold Certifications in: Suicide Risk Assessment and Intervention, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy for PTSD, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) CAMFT Member (pre-licensed)BBS Registration # 137418
