Change your story,

and change your life

I began working with families in 1977 at San Diego Center for Children. It was a 24 hour staffing model where children and their families could receive family counseling. It was there that I learned the significance of family in everyone’s life. That was when I began my graduate work at San Diego State University in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling. I had already decided that I wanted to focus on how a family’s dynamics impact children’s lives. Thus began the journey of my lifetime: a “long and winding road.” It’s been a phenomenal journey to date and I’ve learned so much from the many families, couples, and children that have allowed me to help them on their journeys.
