Our Mission
Our mission at Inspired Resolutions is to provide effective resources to families in the community struggling with the transitions and changes that come along with having teenagers.
We are dedicated to providing interventions, resources, and counseling that is up to date, relevant, and effective. We respond to the community’s needs. We are the foremost experts in helping your family find happiness.
About Us
Inspired Resolutions began in 2016 in response to the great need for more effective services specifically for families raising teenagers. Today we are faced with more complicated problems and solutions than ever before. Families and teens are exposed to and having to cope with issues that we could not have imagined even 10 years ago. The culture, struggles, and pressures change quickly and dramatically for families with teens. Our therapists are experts in helping with the difficulties brought about when raising teens. We have joined with community organizations like the With Hope Foundation (dedicated to educating about teen suicide), local schools, and the local teen courts to provide help to families with teens.
We not only provide paid services such as individual, family, and couples therapy but also believe that it is our responsibility to provide free services to the community. Our therapists are always willing to educate groups in the community and we provide free support groups such as "Hope for Parents With Difficult Teens."

Owner, Therapist, Supervisor
With nearly two decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to helping teens, families, and marriages navigate life’s most challenging moments. As the founder of Inspired Resolutions, my mission is to provide effective, compassionate, and results-driven therapy. I specialize in working with adolescents, parents, and couples, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, anger management, and family conflict.
My journey began as an addiction counselor at the Substance Abuse Foundation, where I witnessed firsthand the impact of substance abuse on young people. This led me to Shields for Families, working with middle and high school students in Compton and providing therapy in both schools and homes. Later, as a Drug Court therapist for the Central Justice Center, I collaborated with judges, probation officers, and legal professionals to support individuals in recovery.
In 2010, I transitioned into private practice with CIFT, where I worked closely with local schools and churches in Brea, Anaheim Hills, and Placentia. Over the years, I have developed a holistic approach to therapy, integrating mental health, physical wellness, and nutrition to help clients achieve long-term success. I firmly believe that addressing the mind, body, and spirit together creates the most profound and lasting change.
Beyond my work in private practice, I am a clinical supervisor, training and mentoring new therapists to provide high-quality care. I also run a free parent support group, which has been serving families for over 17 years, and I actively partner with the With Hope Foundation, providing suicide prevention training for schools.
In addition to in-person therapy, I have developed online courses to supplement treatment, covering topics such as anger management, parenting, ADHD, and resilience. My goal is to make therapeutic resources more accessible and effective for families in need.
If you are seeking support for yourself, your teen, or your family, I am here to help. Together, we can find the right path toward healing and growth.
Supervisor, Therapist
Having started out with a career in family law, I have built my clinical career around giving hope to broken families. In helping family’s with struggling teens I am the Inspired Resolutions specialist in helping the younger children who are often affected by the teen’s issue in the home. I have had the unique experience
consulting with elementary, middle and high school’s giving me important insight into helping families navigate their children’s school system. As a Drug Court therapist, I have also become experienced in navigating mental health in the legal system that has lead me to work with children and teens of adopted and
foster care families. In joining with our local community I have dedicated my Monday nights from 8-9 pm providing a free group for young women.

Therapist
I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. I began my career at Straight Talk Counseling, where I was able to gain the knowledge and experience necessary for working with today's youths. My passion for working with individuals, teens, families, and couples led me to seek to become a member of the Inspired Resolutions team. In addition to working with youths, I am experienced in working with relationship trauma and I co-facilitate a women's group addressing those issues.

Therapist
I received my Master of Science in Counseling with an emphasis on Marriage and Family Therapy at Cal State University, Fullerton. I started my career at Outreach Concerns working in the school systems and with today's youths. My love for gaming and martial arts has helped me to connect with teens and develop a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. Having gone through a traumatic life-changing injury at a young age, I developed a passion for inspiring and helping others to overcome their struggles and become the best versions of themselves. I integrate my own experiences with trauma, grief, anger, and hopelessness to connect with my clients and promote healing and growth.
Therapist
My name is David, and I earned an M.A. in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University. During my clinical training at a local university counseling center, I provided treatment to students facing a wide variety of mental health challenges. From there I moved my area of focus to substance abuse treatment, where I provide individual psychotherapy and lead group therapy for adults at a residential facility.
I practice therapy from an attachment and psychodynamic orientation, while also using interventions widely used in modalities of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.) I am passionate about providing genuine, person-centered psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. I look forward to working with you
