Hi, it’s nice to meet you. My name is Whisper, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I’m part of Clear Mind Counseling’s San Diego therapy team, where I work with adolescents, teens, adults, families, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and life transitions.
I’ve had the privilege of supporting a diverse range of clients across nonprofit organizations, shelters, schools, and private practice. These experiences have shaped my clinical perspective and deepened my empathy, allowing me to meet each person with care, flexibility, and respect as they work toward their therapeutic goals.
I’m truly honored to be part of your journey toward healing. Beginning therapy can feel daunting and isolating, and it’s completely normal to experience fear, skepticism, or uncertainty when seeking change. I believe deeply that humans are wired for connection and that we’re not meant to navigate our struggles alone. My role is to help you feel supported, understood, and accompanied every step of the way.
In my work, I take a Humanistic approach, empowering clients to reconnect with their inherent strengths. I strive to create a therapeutic space grounded in empathy, intentionality, and collaboration — a place where clients feel safe to explore challenges, process pain, and move toward meaningful growth. Drawing from both clinical training and lived experience, my goal is to offer a steady, compassionate presence as you navigate your healing journey.
