About Me

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in California with over 10 years working with grief and loss. I have worked with many families who have experienced a peaceful acceptance of death and those that felt it was simply too soon. My bereavement experience has allowed me to work with families and individuals through the steps of grief. My experience allows those experiencing death and dying to identify that the stages are not linear and do not occur in one particular order.

My counseling techniques include cognitive behavior therapy, where I assist families and individuals with identifying their thoughts, feelings and behaviors in any given situation. I'm compassionate and display patience with my families and individual clients. My goal is to have a dialog and atmosphere that meets you were you are at in this journey of life and/or healing;as the goal is to obtain balance for your ultimate survival and strength.

One thing about this life and body is that we have been given natural processes to stimulate survival, but at times healthy extra support is needed. It takes courage to seek support and move toward healing. So let me say Congratulations, you have taken the first step. I look forward to working with you to identify your natural strengths.

It took me years to finally go to therapy and Im glad I did it! Lola helped me so much with anxiety due to years of trauma and helped me build better and healthier habits for my mind.

Lola was able to help me pinpoint important things about my character to help me move forward in some life changes. She gave me the boost I needed to make some important decisions and helped me figure out next steps towards my self-healing. Thank you for everything Lola!

Lola has been so helpful. She is compassionate, patient, and really takes the time to make you feel heard. I felt very comfortable with Lola from the beginning and I can’t thank Lola enough for all of the tools/resources she has given me. Thank you Lola!

Lola is great and I thank her for helping me through a tough time especially counseling during a pandemic. Times are definitely different, but she takes the time out to understand and break down what I’m going through and how to recognize it and work on it
