Maybe you've been stuck and unable to see your way forward, or you feel a burden you can't quite relieve yourself of. Often times we can find our way with the support of family or friends. But sometimes we need the support and encouragement of a certified professional. Developing a relationship based on genuine care, without judgement or assumptions, can be a foundation from which to search and explore where you’ve been, where you are, and where you want to go.
I view therapy through the lens of self compassion, understanding and collaboration. It is a moving dialogue that shapes healing and being. The development of a therapeutic relationship and interventions are individualized because mental health treatment is more than treating symptoms and a diagnosis. I want my clients to be able to walk away with the confidence that they can manage the ebb and flows of stress or emotional overwhelm on their own. When I see my client is able to take themselves through the steps we developed together, I know they are ready to move on.
Let's work together to lift the barriers preventing you from experiencing the joy and peace of mind you have been looking for.
I provide psychotherapy via Telehealth, so you can meet with me from the comfort of your own home - from anywhere in the state of California.
In person appointments can be arranged. Evening and weekend appointments are available. Request an appointment, or contact me for a 15 minute consultation. I'm looking forward to getting started.
