Many people reach out to me when they are moving through a painful or confusing time and need calm, steady support. Life may feel overwhelming, your coping tools may no longer work, or you may be navigating a major transition, relationship stress, anxiety, or the heartbreak of infidelity or addiction. I offer a warm, grounded space to explore your story, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and develop tools that bring more clarity, connection, and a renewed sense of direction in your life and relationships.

I work with adults and couples seeking support for addiction, betrayal, infidelity, anxiety, and trauma. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, I offer calm, direct guidance and a grounded space for healing. I integrate EMDR, CBT, Gottman Therapy, and a healthy developmental model to help clients recover and strengthen their relationships.

If you are feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, you are not alone. Reaching out can feel vulnerable, especially when you have been carrying so much on your own. You deserve a space where you feel understood and supported. When you are ready, I offer a calm and grounded place to explore what you need and begin creating meaningful change.

Groups

Betrayed Partner Group

Hosted by

Annie Finch

Partner betrayal is traumatizing. It creates a roller-coaster of emotions, affects you socially, physically, and spiritually, and can send you through periods of self-doubt, hopelessness, and despair. This group will help you cope with emotions, grieve the losses, communicate your needs, and reclaim your power. The group format will include education about betrayal trauma, and time to process your thoughts and feelings with other betrayed partners. This Group is virtual and serves people from California
