LMHC

Female

My background spans over 25 years working with numerous populations and currently only working with Adults of all ages. My career has spanned over many years and a few states. Being from Massachusetts where I was born, raised and educated but have also spent much time in Arizona and in Alaska as a Licensed Professional Counselor I am still licensed in Massachusetts where I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I currently reside in Escondido CA and working via video services such as the Sondermind website.

My nature is open , honest and easy to talk with. I am genuine and down to earth, a mother of two adult daughters raised as a single mom with great family support. Recently I returned to AZ and then on to CA, where I feel more at peace but my roots run deep in Massachusetts. Over the past several years I have pursued a more holistic approach with herbal and alternative medicine options for managing the mental health world and symptoms of depression and anxiety which many of us live with regularly. Many times people avoid counseling for fear they will be directed to psychiatry and medications to manage the symptoms but is not always necessary. It is my belief that depression and anxiety can also be situational and may need to be processed through counseling to better understand what is triggering the symptoms. Please understand some diagnostics will need medication management which can also be assisted through counseling services and processing stresses that contribute to the symptoms in question.

Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, PTSD, and Grief are only a few diagnostics we are presented with at different times in our lives and can complicate the fragile balance we seek and interfere with our goals and expectations. Sometimes it is best to process what is happening in your world with someone outside your inner circle. By sharing your struggles with family and friends you can overwhelm those relationships and at times receive advice that may not suit your situation best. By sharing too much with those closest to us can overwhelm those in our inner circle which can result in further loosing the fragile balance and support in our lives.

I look forward to talking with you further and beginning to unravel your amazing story that makes you uniquely you!

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
