Hello! I'm Xana (pronounced Shana). My aim is to walk along side you, navigating life's biggest challenges and listening closely for the unique strength and beauty you possess. My life and practice has shown me while pain can be a powerful teacher, it can also get in the way of hope and joy. My biggest goal as your therapist is to meet your needs as they are, offering tools for support and gentle guidance through your emotional process. I bring warmth and tenderness to my work, with realistic ideas and resilience building skills.
I am a relational therapist, trained in Gestalt Awareness practice. In addition to traditional therapy methods, I blend experiential tools from a variety of modalities, including IFS, mindfulness, and somatics. I specialize in couples, parents and teenagers. I am available virtually for anyone in CA and offer in-person eco-therapy at the ocean in Pacifica.
Therapy can be life-altering work, and I hope you will consider who a good fit is for you, while you search for support. How you and your therapist feel about each other plays a big role in how successful therapy is. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, and if I am not the right fit for you, I will be happy to provide some referrals.
