MY FOCUS I have found great success working with individuals who identify as women between ages 20-65 who self identify as multi-hat wearers. You may be a sister, friend, coworker, partner, possibly a parent or caregiver to others. These roles have left you feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious, depressed and feeling as though there is nothing left to give yourselves. You may also find yourself struggling with self esteem and body image, relationships, processing impacts of childhood, as well as practicing self care. Through therapy, you will learn how to manage anxiety and depressive symptoms exploring and processing traumatic experiences challenge guilt and shame related to taking care of yourself learning how to set healthy boundaries understand and honor relationship with your body and mind create positive, healthy routines learn how to be selfless by being healthy selfish MY 1ST SESSION WITH YOU In our first session, we will get to know each other and determine if it is a good fit. It is so important to remember that you won't like every human you meet on the street, and it's the same for therapists. Ensuring that you feel as though this is a comfortable fit is your number one goal. During our first session, we will complete an intake, begin to determine your goals, and make sure you leave with one new thing to practice or apply to life. MY APPROACH My therapeutic approach is eclectic, as I allow the client and their needs to inform the modalities I use, however, the most common approaches used in my experience are the following: CBT and Solution Focused, Mindfulness, Somatic Experiencing, Client-Centered, DBT, Trauma-Focused CBT as well as Family Systems. Let's dive into this colorful world together. I'm here to guide you every step of the way and create a collaborative journey towards your goals. Let's create a unique narrative that speaks volumes about who you are. Your voice matters, and I'm here to listen and make what could be a very scary, daunting experience safe and fun! MY COMMUNICATION STYLE When working with me, you will find yourself in a safe, trusting, non-judgmental, kind, and compassionate space. I understand the uneasiness of sharing the most private parts of your life with, at first, a complete stranger, and so I encourage each client to build that trust and allow themselves to share in their own time. I love to share the education behind modalities and skills with clients and find ways to make success sustainable and fun. You will leave sessions feeling heard, respected, and some lightness in you heart. MY GOALS FOR YOU No one is you, and that is your power! I truly believe this and will collaborate to identify goals that fit your needs. My greatest goal is to support you, meet you where you are, and provide you with the tools to eventually support yourself.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Fremont area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Fremont therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Fremont due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Fremont may not take health insurance, some in the state of California may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of California you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Fremont, California can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
