Support for Depression and Anxiety

Living with depression or anxiety can make everyday life feel overwhelming. You might find yourself exhausted, disconnected, or caught in constant cycles of worry and self-doubt. Even simple tasks can start to feel impossible. But you don’t have to face these struggles alone—healing begins when you reach out for support.

Therapy provides a compassionate space to better understand what you’re feeling and why. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, patterns, and life experiences that may be contributing to your depression or anxiety. Through evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion work, you’ll learn practical tools to help calm your mind, regulate your emotions, and begin to rebuild hope.

I am recently remarried, and in our blended family, we have four daughters. We live in Lake Havasu City and thoroughly enjoy the lake life and sunshine here in Arizona! We are often by the water or cruising in our boat, finding a cove to enjoy on the lake. One of our favorite family activities is packing a picnic dinner and enjoying a sunset cruise on the water. Four daughters, including one adult, two teens, and a toddler, definitely keep us on our toes, but we embrace all the challenges and triumphs that come with being a blended family. We love to spend time together, find fun activities in the community, cook and bake together, tend our garden, and are continuously learning new ways to respectfully express our differences. Life with four girls comes with many feelings and emotional situations, but also many opportunities to express love and understanding. Unfortunately, my first husband passed away in 2017 after losing his battle with alcoholism. My journey through this experience with my two eldest daughters was one of many life events that ignited my passion for helping others. Whether you are struggling with your mental health, addiction, grief and loss, domestic violence, relationships, life transitions, or simply seeking personal growth and self-development, I am here to help you reach your therapeutic goals and feel good about your direction in life.

I received my Bachelor's Degree in Human Services from California State University, Fullerton, and went on to receive my Master's in Counseling from CSUF as well. I have worked for several years in the mental health field and have been employed by various agencies in addition to health centers in college campus settings. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, families, and adolescents. I have an eclectic style that allows me to use an integrated approach and tailor my therapy to meet each client's individual needs. I enjoy the many aspects of the therapeutic process and look forward to helping you in your journey toward wellness.
