Therapists in California

Welcome to your journey toward healing and wholeness. ✨ Whether you feel completely overwhelmed by life or are just looking for some support, I hope you recognize that by reaching out you have already overcome one of the most difficult parts of the journey. What gives me the authority to make such a claim? I stand by this belief as a product of my 20 years of clinical experience practicing as a psychologist but more profoundly based on my own personal journey toward healing and wholeness. It is my goal to ensure a positive, trusting therapeutic relationship so that we can create a safe place to work through whatever difficulties you may be facing. I believe in setting collaborative goals with my clients to help them with their areas of need, while also empowering them to use their strengths to overcome difficulties. To reach this end, I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches that incorporate cognitive-behavioral, client-centered and solution focused techniques. I also value the use of mindfulness techniques when my clients feel comfortable doing so. It would be an honor and pleasure to accompany you on your personal journey! ✨

With over twenty years of professional experience, I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, who uses Strength and Evidence-based techniques to help people overcome symptoms of anxiety and /or depression. I meet you where you are using a positive Client-centered approach. This means we work on your priorities, in English or Spanish. We establish your goals, learn and practice new skills that you will be able to use throughout your life to meet future challenges, and successfully improve the quality of your life-to your standards. I see problems as opportunities to change and grow. What I enjoy most about my work, is using my training and experience to help people feel listened to, to help them understand their feelings, the feelings of others and to use that greater understanding to develop greater self-compassion and self-appreciation. I enjoy helping people reduce their pain and suffering and begin to feel empowered to go beyond merely surviving and begin to really thrive, realizing their potential to live a fuller, more satisfying and meaningful life.

Most people seek therapy because they realize that something is not working in their lives, and symptoms like stress, anxiety, and/or depression are starting to feel overwhelming. These symptoms quickly subside as folks feel genuinely seen, safe, and supported. At this point, we can then begin to uncover and understand destructive behaviors and thought patterns that are potentially inaccurate and not serving you well. These discoveries lead to new realizations about yourself as well as others and allow you to re-shape your life, changing negative attitudes and unhelpful ways of being. The end result is not only a deeper understanding of yourself but also a new, refreshing take on life coupled with positive, meaningful, and tangible changes in both your daily and long-term experiences. As a highly trained psychotherapist with over 20 years experience, I deeply value the therapeutic relationship. Clinically, I draw from Jungian and psychoanalytic theories. I also find cognitive-behavioral techniques helpful, and I can be very solution-focused if this seems appropriate, and you are looking for briefer, focused help. Compassion, attentiveness, and humility are always essential to me. I have found that by listening very closely and well -- coupled with sincere and humble admiration of my clients -- I can truly be of service in helping folks change their lives for the better. I look forward to hearing from you!
