Life has a tendency to throw unexpected situations, problems, and experiences at us. During these times, it is wise to seek guidance for our personal lives, marriages, families, and professional situations. Together, we will examine your current life situation, what is achievable, and how to move forward. Characteristics of narcissism, controlling behaviors, and problematic situations can affect one's mental health significantly. I work both with the person who struggles with these problems as well as those who are in relationships with that person. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

I’m a bilingual LPC Associate and owner of Conejo Counseling. I work with young adults through the lifespan individually and with couples. I cover topics mostly related to depression, anxiety, stress, communication, sex and sexuality, and LGBTQIA+ topics. I aim to find where a client is and where they would like to go while exploring the various "rabbit holes" along the way. Like a GPS, without identifying where we are beginning it’s impossible to provide a way.

Most people work very hard on managing their personal lives and relationships, academic, or professional pursuits, and their various goals and interests. However, often things don’t go as planned, and we are faced with very challenging, even painful situations, and we could benefit from receiving additional support. Seeking help and support is a strength and an important step to change and growth. I believe that therapy should be highly collaborative, where we work together to evaluate life experiences, relationships, strengths, and areas you wish to develop.

I am truly honored when chosen to be someone's therapist. This is a hard decision to make and one that is not always easy. I have had the privilege to work with individual clients ages 12 to 80 years old. I enjoy helping teen clients navigate uncharted middle and high school territories and beyond. I also really love to work with adults in transition and those who are navigating through big decisions that can create anxiety. I have worked with female clients wading through the deep waters of depression and childhood trauma. I am also looking to work with older individuals 60 and up and how to help them with grief and medical trauma.

Life has a way of putting us in boxes and layering expectations on every facet of our identity. It’s tiring, it’s overwhelming, and it limits the joy we find in our day to day. You don’t have to subscribe to these roles that blunt you, though! The perfectionism, anxiety, depression and imposter syndrome don’t have to define you and you definitely don’t have to dismantle it alone. You’ll lead me through a trail that you’ve walked before and I’ll point out the landmarks that you’ve become numb to. I’ll point out new paths you could take, but you always have control in deciding whether you try a new way or not.

I enjoy working with adult individuals and couples in psychotherapy. Many of the individual clients I see are working through relationship issues (past or present), whether originating from family of origin, romance, friendships or the workplace. I frequently train individual and corporate clients in stress management practices. I have a master's degree in rehabilitation psychology, which informs my work with clients struggling with acute or chronic health conditions. I like to help clients become their own advocates in management of their medical conditions. I believe knowledge is power and a great antidote to fear and depression.

How do I know if I need career counseling?
Determining whether a career counselor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counseling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counselor.
Who can benefit from career counseling?
Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counseling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counseling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counselor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counseling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.
How long does career counseling typically last?
The length of career counseling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking. Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counseling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counselor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.
How to prepare for career counseling?
Clients can prepare for career counseling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counselor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counselor, particularly if the career counselor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counseling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
