Meet Camellia, MA, AMFT

Camellia obtained her undergraduate degree in Psychology from UCLA and her master’s degree in Couple and Family Therapy from Alliant International University, where she is also working towards her doctorate degree. She has a background in working with adolescents with behavioral and emotional issues, autism, crisis intervention, immigrants and refugees, and entire family issues.

Camellia is currently specializing in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and working towards becoming a certified EFT therapist. She uses EFT because it is the most research and evidenced based model in couple’s therapy. She appreciates EFT’s focus on stopping harmful patterns in relationships and helping couples express their underlying needs and wants. She believes that all couple’s argue, but the key to a successful relationship is learning how to argue in a more respectful and loving way.  

Camellia believes that the most important part of therapy is an honest and safe relationship between the therapist and client. She believes that everyone already has all the resources within them to make positive changes in their lives and that therapy is sometimes needed to access those.
