Welcome to Santi Therapy (now offering telehealth)
When you have relationship issues or mental health needs, you deserve a professional therapist who has specialized qualifications, strong compassion, and practical tools. I strive to offer all of these to each of my clients.
So if you want to improve the quality of your marriage or other relationships, or if you are struggling with depression, anxiety, anger, grief, spiritual direction or trauma, I will offer my expertise and experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Life Coach, to help you recognize your own wisdom and natural strengths to overcome your issues.
I approach the therapy process with openness to understanding a person's unique strengths and challenges. This style allows me to individualize my treatment for each person through careful assessment of a client's life situation or psychological issue. Some issues are short-term (1-6 sessions) while others require medium to long-term therapy. I am pleased to design the therapeutic experience to accommodate your specific needs.
My passion in therapy is focused around helping my clients build healthy relationships. Through my graduate training as a Marriage and Family Therapist and my 20+ years of experience as a therapist for individuals, couples, and families, I have seen how vital strong relationships are to our mental well-being. I strive to help my clients develop a fuller and richer sense of themselves and their relationships with others. For clients who are Christian, I assist them in interpreting their life situations through their faith.
