About Lani
She brings 27 years of professional practice and decades more of work experience in public agencies and private practice. Much of her background includes work with people who have chronic mental health conditions, trauma histories, caregiving burdens, and those coping with chronic pain or serious illness. She has also supported people who identify as LGBTQQIP2SAA and veterans in various volunteer and service roles.
Lani’s style is active and directive when needed. She uses short-term methods alongside longer-term support when a situation calls for it. Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting, concrete skills for managing symptoms, and practical strategies for relationship and parenting concerns.
She trained at Chapman University, earning a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, and completed gerontology coursework at Sacramento State University. Those experiences inform her work with aging concerns and complex health-related stressors.
Lani welcomes conversations about starting therapy and helping people move toward more hopeful, manageable lives. To begin, a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to set up the first appointment.
