Throughout my experience as a therapist, I have offered individual, group, and family therapy to culturally and economically diverse families in community based programs, treatment centers and schools.  Many of my clients were dealing with the struggles of gangs, substance abuse, and legal problems.  Through therapy, individuals learned how to set goals and consider consequences.  Families were better able to support one another through their challenges.
