Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) Therapists in Modesto, CA

I have worked in the field of psychology for 26 years now in various capacities, including group homes for children and community mental health centers; I've acted as the Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool for many years, and also with people of all ages in private practice. My work in the last 5 years has focused more on trauma/EMDR and nervous system regulation (Polyvagal Theory with Stephen Porges) for adolescents and adults as well as parenting support with a speciality in parenting neurodivergent chilren. I have also spent time supervising both psychology trainees and marriage and family interns. I truly love what I do and am always adding to my professional skills over time.

I love helping people let go of the codependent/people-pleasing strategies that often arise in response to a difficult family member. Seeing my clients find more confidence and inner strength is why I do this work.

Caring-hearted, when painful experiences disrupt you, find peace. Helping Good-Hearted Confident People Recover from a Life Shock! If your life was disrupted by an unexpected experience and you cannot stop the cycles of self-doubt, sorrow or frustration, help is here. While you have achieved some success and happiness, a curve ball has changed your emotions. You wish for life to feel like a warm hug or uplifting event but instead you are exhausted from grief and perhaps, confusion. This leads to loneliness. You long to find peace.

Modesto sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its agricultural economy — the surrounding Stanislaus County produces almonds, milk, and poultry at nationally significant scale — with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of agricultural work, including seasonal income volatility and the physical and psychological demands of farm labor. The city has a large Hispanic population and a significant community of Punjabi Sikh agricultural workers and business owners, creating demand for bilingual and culturally informed therapists who understand immigration stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Memorial Medical Center and Doctors Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while California State University Stanislaus supplies clinical training to the local community. Modesto's relatively high rates of poverty and crime create a therapy landscape in which economic stress and community trauma are recurring clinical themes.
