About Bridget

Marriage Family Therapist

I received my Masters in Clinical Psychology at Pepperdine University and my Bachelors in Communication Studies at San Jose State University, Dean’s Scholar. For individual counseling, I specialize in trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, health issues, life direction, and spirituality. For couples, I use the Gottman Method to enhance communication, manage conflict, and build love maps. 

I use a collaborative approach with every client or couple I work with since everyone has different needs. With certifications in advanced hypnotherapy as well as training in EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), I enjoy going deep with clients to reveal unconscious beliefs, stories, and release stuck trauma in the body. Once you are free from shackles of past trauma, you can see your future with new insight and possibility, and create the life you want. Therapy is not always easy, but it can be powerfully transformative when you are ready for change. Taking one step at a time, we will do this together.

With 18 years background in natural health, I also bring a full body approach to therapy that explores diet, exercise, sleep, and mindfulness. Working with your body from releasing past trauma to proper nutrition, movement, and sleep is important for overall wellness. My goal is beyond helping you cope or survive, but to help you learn how to thrive.
