Embrace Your Wellness Journey

Warmest

Welcomes

As a mother, the journey of entering therapy is a profound act of self-care, one that ripples outward to benefit the entire family. For many mothers, the demands of raising children, managing a household, and often a career, can lead to a unique set of challenges, including burnout, anxiety, and a sense of losing one's identity while navigating a new one.

Therapy provides a dedicated and confidential space to explore these feelings without judgment. It offers a chance to unpack the complexities of motherhood—from the joys and triumphs to the moments of frustration and self-doubt. By seeking professional help, a mother can develop coping strategies, set healthy boundaries, and rediscover her own needs and desires.

This commitment to personal growth not only improves her own mental well-being but also models resilience and emotional intelligence for her children, creating a healthier and more emotionally supportive family environment.

Motherhood is a journey unlike any other. Let's talk about what that means for you.

About Myself and Practice

I am also on this journey of motherhood and raising two daughters. My husband and I are so blessed to call them ours. I have had a career committed to public service for the past 20 years within community practice, forensics and the front lines of crisis mental health. 

I am versed in CBT, Mindfulness based modalities, humanistic approaches and Motivational Interviewing. 

I hold a LCSW license #81438 with the California BBS. I have earned my clinical distinction with the American Board of Clinical Social Work as a Board Certified Diplomate (BCD) #61519. I have my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) #PSI151613 through Postpartum Support International. I graduated with my Masters in Social Work from the University of Nebraska Graduate College in 2011, Bachelors in Psychology from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 2008.

Our Services

  • I offer mobile therapy appointments for mothers on a case-by-case basis in the East Modesto, Riverbank and Escalon area. To help ensure your privacy, we will discuss and plan for any potential challenges related to technology and your home environment which could limit confidentiality. For instance, we will need to consider the presence of devices like Google Home, Amazon Alexa, security or other recording devices that may compromise the confidentiality of our session. We can work together to find ways to keep your sessions as confidential as possible. 

  • Thank you for your interest. I'm not accepting new telehealth clients at the moment, but please check back for future availability.

  • Thank you for your interest in therapy groups. My current schedule is full, and the groups are closed to new participants at this time. We encourage you to check back in February 2026 for information on our next round of group offerings. 

  • I appreciate your interest in having me as your clinical supervisor. I am currently at my maximum capacity and won't be able to accept a new supervisee until January 2026. My focus is on providing the best support to my current supervisees. I wish you the best in your search.
