“My change philosophy is guided by the idea that changes should be life-affirming, and allow you to represent yourself in the world in the ways you want to be seen.”

My clients are women who want to get clear about what they need to do, align their values and priorities, and take steps towards change. They want to do more in their own service, so they can give back to the world in significant and meaningful ways. They want to embrace their diversity and authenticity as their whole way of being, and they don’t want to be limited by the ideology of the generation, stress, dysfunctional family patterns, chronic anxiety, or abusive workplaces.

I‘ve struggled with authenticity—doing the things consistent with who I am and loving the body I’m in— and chances are, you have too. According to the Irish origin, my full name means Brave Little Rock, but I’ve always felt more like an “anxious pebble.” To believe I could be brave, I’ve spent my time connecting meaningfully, speaking my truth, and honoring my authenticity. It’s my honor to now be able to do that for you.

Therapy is only as meaningful as your willingness to bring your truths to the relationship and trusting that I can hear everything you have to say. When we work together, we’ll be productive. We’ll respect one another’s truths, knowledge, boundaries, and resilience. We’ll be willing to learn and unlearn, emphatically discuss into the taboo (sex, money, and cultural messages), and give permission to be authentic and listen to your intuition.

You’ll walk away from therapy sessions with things to do, skills to work on, and a clearer path toward the kind of life you want for yourself.

BACKGROUND & TRAINING

My therapy experience and style has been crafted from successfully treating adults and children with Anxiety Disorders (Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder), Obsessive Compulsive Disorders (OCD, Trichotillomania [hair-pulling]), Depressive Disorders (Major Depressive Disorder) in individual and family therapy, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

In partnership with local universities, I have been a Field Instructor and Liaison for the past 2+ years. When teaching graduate social work students, interns, and post-graduate therapists, I follow the Integrated Developmental Model to meet learning needs. Prior to teaching, I was in the field for 5 years providing mental health services, conducting crisis intervention, and being a frontline healthcare worker. Through employment at the County of Riverside, Kaiser, alongside law enforcement—in person and online— I have amassed enough learning opportunities to teach confidently, ethically, and in a culturally responsive way.

Great leadership makes the difference in both the classroom and the field. From my continuing education through Cornell University, I focus on bringing women to leadership positions and accentuating diversity in the therapist workforce.

SUPERVISION

I offer supervision that is modern and progressive, based in the view that in order to offer a service to our clients, we need to be able to honor our our own needs, advocate for ourselves in the same systems. Supervision is didactic and collaborative, and replicates the conditions that you will find in the field. If you’re interested in supervision services, please contact me.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
