I had the opportunity to meet with Nancy during a point in my life where I couldn't keep up with or make sense of the loss and changes occurring around me. The pain and confusion took its toll on me. Nancy clarified for me the impact this had. How I had become familiar with pain and learn to expect and live with it. She helped me turn the corner to healing and joy. She validated and encouraged me. She was born to do this. I would recommend her to anyone needing help finding themselves again during a difficult time in their life.

Nancy is a blessing. She knows how to ask direct questions and tell the truth in love. Even when it was tough stuff to work on I knew it was with my best in mind. I miss her!

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    From an interactive, forward-moving, solution-focused perspective, my therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges while integrating complementary modalities and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. Having empathy, compassion, and understanding as a foundation of the client-therapist relationship, we work together to build on a client's strengths toward achieving the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing. In addition to being a prominent relationship therapist in Ventura County, I have presented at marriage conferences and to general audiences speaking on topics pertaining to relationship skill building (e.g. - boundaries, communication, conflict resolution, strengths/growth areas, family mapping) and basic life issues (e.g. - stress, anger, loneliness, grieving/loss). Additionally, I am an active training facilitator for the international Prepare-Enrich marriage counseling mentoring program.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you are just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
