I was born in Romania and came to the USA in 2004. As a result, I’m adding a multicultural approach the great journey of the therapeutic process. I have a degree as a special education teacher and have worked for 10 years with a specialty in emotionally disabled children. I also worked as a licensed psychologist in the Romanian Army. Unfortunately, the psychology degree did not transfer in the USA, so I decided to go back to school, pursuing a clinical social work degree at USC. I enjoy working with adults, seniors and families on a variety of issues such as parenting, trauma, complex PTSD, and high functioning autism. My therapeutic approaches are rooted in Adlerian Psychology, CBT, and Positive Psychotherapy. I firmly believe that we all have an amazing set of personal strengths, however, life circumstances can hinder our ability to see and use them in an adaptive manner. I’m here to guide you in your personal growth and to help you discover your real wonderful you. It is not always easy work, but once you embark in the process of self-discovery, it is amazing and empowering. Our work together will allow you to be aware of your choices and your strengths. I am very dedicated, and I love what I’m doing. I consider it a privilege to be part of your life, your life story, and your future self.
