Introduction

I received my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Santa Barbara in 2016 and am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #122460. In 2021, I completed Postpartum Support International’s Perinatal Mood Disorders training to assist mothers and fathers with postpartum anxiety, depression and mood disorders. I received clinical training at CALM Santa Barbara (2015), where I worked with children and families impacted by child abuse, sexual abuse and trauma. In addition, I completed my clinical training at Cottage Hospital's Psychiatric Nursing and Chemical Dependency Unit (2015), where I continue to work with severe and persistent mental illness and addiction as a case manager.
