Therapists in La Jolla, CA

I believe we all possess what we need for wholeness, yet through a lot of self-help in the zeitgeist right now we’re asked to move the ground of our own being and follow formulas instead of trust the process & our intuition. Through our therapeutic relationship you bring your healing aptitude forward, and we establish a safe space where wounds, old stories, traumas, and any ways life has tamed you can be tended. The process of rewilding your soul and spirit and stepping into a new state of consciousness can be challenging and present with some pain and discomfort. I meet you lovingly, with an empowering & heart-centered approach.

Therapy is a wonderful collaborative relationship that can help you to identify and clarify internal conflicts and struggles, help access and find solutions to current challenging situations and lead you to a more positive state of mind and sense of well being. My passion is to work with individuals and couples through life transitions, relationship issues and to help you create your best life that is aligned with your truest self. I also work with past and current life traumas and losses and am a certified EMDR therapist.

Are you struggling with how crazy the world has become? Do you feel lost, scared or confused? Are you looking for answers during a time when no one seems to have them? I might be able to help you. Before I was a therapist I was a client myself, struggling with addiction, PTSD and other issues as well. My journey of healing led me to becoming a therapist to help others heal. My clients find me to be compassionate, non-judgmental and informative. I tend to work intuitively, while using my training and experience as a guide. I am focused on helping my clients navigate their own healing journey as quickly and as painlessly as possible.

Whether you want to stop worrying or feel more confident, we'll consider how your inner emotional world interacts with the greater cultural context surrounding you. Let's meet if you're open to changing your thoughts, habits and perspective- or simply want someone to understand your point of view!

Feeling anxious? Trapped in a cycle of overthinking and worry? Finding it challenging to enjoy life? You find yourself going through life on auto-pilot and not able to be fully present and enjoy time with your loved ones. You feel that what you bring to the table is “not enough”, you feel undeserving of friendships or relationships and tell yourself, “something must be wrong with me”. You are scared of what’s to come and of not having control over the future. Anxiety and stress can feel exhausting and overwhelming. It can feel lonely and like no one understands you.

My passion in life is helping people heal from trauma and depression through warm, authentic, and professional care. Through my clinical training, I discovered that I have a natural talent for working with children and adolescents. I am fascinated by new technologies and like to incorporate them into treatment whenever it can help an individual live a healthier and more fulfilling life.

How would it be if you had trust in yourself to live fully and courageously? Difficult life experiences have promoted protective parts of you which have helped you survive and even succeed in many ways, but they now keep your life limited and unfulfilling. These survival mechanisms can manifest as depression, anxiety, workaholism, avoidance, emotional blockages, and other unsustainable ways of coping. I offer an invitation for change and transformation. Through our collaboration, you can heal and resolve past experiences so that you can move forward from a place of wholeness, connectedness, and vitality.

Hi and welcome! Thank you for prioritizing your mental health. Are you motivated to make a change but need a safe space to open up, learn, and grow? I work with young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. The clients I treat are often high-achievers dealing with school and/or career-related stress, strained relationships, perfectionism, and self-esteem issues. Through established trust, consistent sessions, and the implementation of learned skills, clients in my practice often report feeling a sense of relief and improvement soon after beginning therapy.

Baháʼu'lláh said: "Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures, and enable mankind to benefit therefrom." Life is a mysterious journey of experiences and learning. I got lost, distracted, and swayed on this path until I learned where to find my sacred place. In the ebbs and flows of life, I have discovered that I have an incredible gift for motivating, encouraging, and coaching others. My purpose is to help others make their life sacred by holding it as a masterpiece. To achieve that, I help clients discover their strengths and build resiliency.

Are you feeling lost and alone in your struggles? There are times in life when we need guidance, education and support to navigate through difficult experiences. I recall the saying, "It takes a village to raise a child". I believe we need a village around us for a lifetime. Why go it alone when there are others to help? We are social beings after all. As a therapist, I use an eclectic approach pulling from various methods to best meet your individual needs. I also work closely with other practitioners as needed. My clients often find me to be relaxed, empathic and nurturing, often using humor as a healing element.

I use an integrative model incorporating the impact of relationships, exercise, nutrition, and sleep on one's overall well-being.

You know that your life is not all that it could be. You may feel stuck or confused about what to do next. It is hard to recognize that you want change in your life and to ask for help. But you realize that the discomfort you are experiencing outweighs the fear of change. There can be many conflicting aspects of your life that may cause stress and unhappiness. This does not leave time to take care of yourself leaving you feeling overwhelmed, taking its toll on your emotional heath.

On the path to finding love, fulfilling work and meaning, there will be challenges that make us feel anxious, depressed, angry or just uncertain. I believe that exploring our feelings and personal goals in a safe, nurturing environment can help us adjust to difficulties and inevitable changes. I believe that focusing on your strengths and getting in touch with the body, mind and spirit can help promote health and well-being. I can offer you empathy, respect and listening without judgment, because to be truly heard is what makes us grow, adjust, and live to our fullest capacity.
