Meet Trinity

YOUR THERAPIST & CONFIDANT

Wife. Mom. Friend. Affirming Christian. These are just a few of the roles that make up who Trinity is. With a Master’s degree in Psychology from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and a Bachelor’s degree from Azusa Pacific University, Trinity combines her academic background with a genuine passion for helping others heal and grow.

Outside of the office, Trinity embraces the joys of everyday life. Whether she’s curled up with a good book, experimenting with a new baking recipe, or savoring her daily coffee (sometimes a bit too much!), she finds happiness in the little moments. Family time is precious to her, and she treasures the simple, meaningful connections with loved ones.

Trinity’s approach is deeply personal and compassionate, rooted in her own experiences and her commitment to affirming every individual’s journey. She’s here to support you with understanding and empathy, guiding you towards a more fulfilling and connected life.

In therapy, we can explore the underlying reasons why you may be holding yourself to such high standards. We can also challenge the negative beliefs and thought patterns that fuel your perfectionism.

  • Are you constantly putting others' needs before your own, leading to feelings of resentment and exhaustion? Therapy can help you break free from the people-pleasing cycle and learn to prioritize your own well-being.Through therapy, you'll develop healthier boundaries, improve your communication skills, and gain the confidence to say "no" without feeling guilty.

  • Faith-based counseling integrates spiritual and psychological principles to address mental health concerns. This approach can be particularly helpful for individuals who seek to reconcile their faith with their emotional struggles.

What is EMDR Therapy and How Can It Help You?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is a powerful treatment method designed to help individuals process and heal from trauma. Using bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess painful memories, reducing their emotional intensity and helping you find peace and clarity.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or unresolved trauma, EMDR can be the key to unlocking healing and moving forward in a healthier, more empowered way. The beauty of EMDR is its ability to target the root cause of emotional distress, allowing for deep healing without the need to relive painful experiences in detail.
