About
As someone who has walked alongside countless individuals through trauma, self-doubt, and life's unexpected turns, I am passionate about helping people reclaim their strength, rewrite their narrative, and develop the tools needed to rise with clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 2 years of experience. I specialize in helping adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. I work with clients seeking clarity, emotional balance, and healthier coping skills, and I partner with them to build confidence, resilience, and a renewed sense of self.
I earned my Master’s in Nursing from West Coast University. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-focused. I draw from evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and trauma-informed care to help clients build insight, develop coping skills, and create lasting change.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to help you uncover your strengths, break old patterns, and build a meaningful, steady life.. When you’re ready, I would be honored to support you on your path to healing, growth, and long-term emotional well-being.

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.
Thriveworks psychologists in La Habra, CA provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.
Psychological treatment at Thriveworks La Habra is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.
The renowned psychologist Abraham Maslow once stated, “In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.” Humans tend to develop patterns of thinking and habits of behavior that might serve them well in the short-term, but may not contribute to sustainable well-being. For example, a child with a parent who is prone to unpredictable rages might start walking on eggshells to avoid being yelled at. The child might think that this constant state of anxiety might help them avoid distress, but all it really does is teach her to be fearful. And now she’s an anxious adult. Is it possible to unlearn a cognitive strategy that’s no longer adaptive? Absolutely.
The licensed psychologists at Thriveworks in La Habra, CA can work with people to understand why they think and act the way they do. Then they can help people find improved, healthier ways to operate that will facilitate better outcomes in life. It can be amazing what a little self-examination and professional insight will do. Psychologists at Thriveworks have the extensive training, experience, and compassion to help clients identify and manage their individual issues. The experience of therapy can be life-changing.
Many people are unclear about what differentiates a psychologist from a psychiatrist. For the purposes of Thriveworks therapy in La Habra, CA, it’s most important to know that psychiatrists can prescribe medication for mental health conditions and psychologists can’t. This is because psychiatrists are medical doctors (MDs) who graduated from medical school.
Clinical and counseling psychologists are experts in the field of psychology. They usually have doctorate degrees (PsyDs or PhDs) and practice psychotherapy (talk therapy). Clinical psychologists often focus on psychopathology.
In addition to psychologists and psychiatrists, Thriveworks in La Habra, CA has the following licensed mental health professionals on staff:
Psychologists can help people with a wide range of issues and conditions. A client does not need to be in crisis to seek out the services of an exceptional Thriveworks psychologist. Sometimes people just need someone to listen to them closely and provide insightful guidance into their experiences. But many people do approach a psychologist for the first time due to a specific issue like the following:
The psychologists at Thriveworks in La Habra, CA are all fully licensed and also accept most major forms of health insurance coverage. This means that Thriveworks clients receive premium care at affordable prices. It’s important that everyone who needs great mental health services has access.
Thriveworks psychologists can meet their clients in person at the modern office or virtually through online counseling sessions. Both modes of communication are of the same high quality. If you’d like additional information about therapy at Thriveworks, or you’d like to book an appointment that could take place as early as this week, give the office a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
