Therapists in El Dorado Hills, CA

The first step in any journey takes the courage to start. And you already have! You're here. I know there is still a lot of shame around being vulnerable and asking for help. We live in a world that often demands perfection, high expectations, and pushing ourselves to the max. Struggling with depression, anger, or trauma does not make you a failure. It makes you human. I believe we all have the innate ability to heal ourselves, and therapy can support you in finding that clarity and empowerment.

You’re finding it more and more difficult to hold it all together. After pushing down your emotions and "going along with things" for so long, there is all of a sudden very little space to hold anything else. It’s hard to concentrate, you’re irritable, your body aches. There are times when you feel you could jump out of your skin from the racing thoughts, and there are times where you want to crawl under a rock to escape the overwhelm. What has always worked in the past is not even touching these feelings.

The teen and young adult years are full of shifts and changes, bringing about stress, anxiety and overwhelm, affecting your teen as well as the entire family.

Have you ever wondered why after years of talk therapy your trauma resurfaces? Feeling like the only thing that helps you survive is avoiding and dissociating? Are you struggling to advocate and set boundaries for yourself? Or feeling so depressed/anxious that you can’t reach for hope to feel happiness and peace? Our behaviors are a result of our experiences. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. So let me pour you a cup of tea or coffee, and let’s talk. Therapy isn’t meant to be hard, it is meant to provide you with a safe, judgment free space to process your story.
