About My Clients

Positive Psychology Inc. is a team of compassionate social justice-oriented QTBIPOC and neurodivergent psychologists. Our focus is on enhancing your overall well-being, not just eliminating negativity. We maintain that certain "disorders" only indicate diversity and help you live authentically. We can help you tap into your ancestral or cultural knowledge to find solutions and resources. We take insurance to make treatment accessible.

My Background and Approach

We are guests of Kumeyaay land, now called San Diego, CA. We are providing therapy (trauma, anxiety, depression etc) and evaluations (ADHD and Autism, etc.) in person and via teletherapy to people in CA. We offer strength-based, client-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive therapy. Each clinician customizes care for each client.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

We believe that each person has the potential to grow and realize happiness at any age. Our ultimate focus in therapy is to increase fulfillment in our lives, not merely to eliminate negativity or "symptoms." Sometimes disorders (clusters of symptoms) describe your perfect uniqueness, and we can assist you in living your authentic life. Your reaction to events or ideologies is valid and healthy, and you may feel relieved by our aid in healing and growing from them. The source of joy and the journey to get in touch with it are unique to each person. We can find solutions and resources within yourself, or your ancestral or cultural collective knowledge.
