We are California and Texas State service providers. Our goal is to help individuals and families by improving relationships and overall outlook on life. Many people are struggling with anxiety and depression with increased frequency and intensity, but help is available. Jonah's House uses Evidenced Based Practices which have been clinically proven to reduce or eliminate the physical discomfort of anxiety and soothe the emotional impact of depression and trauma. We help build communication and coping skills to help individuals and families gain a closer connection to those they care about. We provide telehealth or in person sessions at our office at 136 S Halcyon in Arroyo Grande, California with a California or Texas State Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with individuals, couples, parent–child relationships, and families. I view each client within the context of their family system, recognizing that every family has unique strengths and challenges that shape how individuals understand themselves and the world. I help clients gain insight into these dynamics, identify their strengths, and use them to overcome difficulties and achieve their personal and relational goals.

I have specialized training in couples and family therapy, including Level 1 Clinical Training in the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), including Externship and Core Skills, as well as Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) Levels 1 and 2. As a certified Gottman Bringing Baby Home Educator, I emphasize the importance of maintaining strong partner connections during the transition to parenthood. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a brief, evidence-based approach that uses guided eye movements and imagery to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce emotional distress, and resolve trauma-related triggers.

I welcome clients of all ages and work with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship conflict, suicidal ideation, parenting challenges, stress management, social difficulties, and family distress. I am trained in teletherapy and offer both in-person and online services.
