Therapists

Meredith obtained her master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from California State University, Long Beach. While studying there, she was trained in a variety of therapy methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy. She also interned with a supervisor trained in attachment-based and psychodynamic psychotherapy.

 Meredith has worked in a variety of counseling settings including the community-based JFCS of Long Beach, the Hebrew Academy Day School in Huntington Beach, and Alliance Psychology Group in Long Beach. 

 Meredith's specialization is in anxiety treatment  She understands the ways that  anxiety, stress, worry and negative thinking can impact life and relationships. She also knows how the right changes can open doors to a  higher quality of life. Her expertise is in guiding adults and teens who  struggle with anything from occasional worry and stress, to crippling  panic, OCD, or depression that often accompanies anxiety.

Meredith's  approach to therapy is to travel alongside you in  your journey to uncover how you may have gotten to this place,  learning healthier coping strategies, and understanding what might be  standing in your way to FLOURISHING.  She incorporates a strength-based approach with an attachment-based healing method that can address past and present emotional injuries. 

Meredith opened up her own psychotherapy practice in 2020 and has been expanding her practice to now include Associates, which she supervises.  She is excited to offer sessions at her new location in Los Alamitos.

 As  a therapist Audrey is passionate about bringing healing and hope to  teens, adults, couples, and families. Her goal is to help you work  through trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, anger, or the feeling of  being “stuck" so that you are able to move forward to become your best self. 
 

Trauma  is often at the root of many mental health issues. As an EMDR trained  therapist, Audrey sees traumatic wounds as roadblocks to peace and  happiness. She helps people to process their traumas so that they are  able to build safe, connected, and healthy relationships with themselves  and others. Additionally, Audrey is a culturally competent therapist in working with the unique needs of Law Enforcement, Military and Fire Service Professionals. 


Audrey's  approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that in each of us there  is a deep longing to be seen and heard by another person within a safe  place. Audry strives to provide that place within the therapeutic process.
