Trauma Focused Therapists in Oakland, CA
I believe people have limitless strengths & they may just need to learn to access them & believe in themselves to achieve what they seek in life. I also believe that most mental health symptoms & dysfunction in our lives stems from unresolved or unprocessed trauma & some traumatic experiences may not always be perceived as trauma. Though I specialize in working through grief, helping the helpers, & supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, I really enjoy helping anyone who seeks my assistance. I feel very capable of meeting people where they are at & helping them get to where they want to go to achieve their personal goals.

I truly believe that healing starts with being seen; and everyone deserves to be seen and understood. Unfortunately, sometimes life's challenges and our inner critique can make us feel otherwise. Life isn't meant to be tackled alone, and in today's world, the multitude of stressors often leave us feeling "broken" or "damaged." I'm here to reassure you that you are NOT broken or damaged; just human. In providing a non-judgmental, affirming space for you, we can explore your story, struggles, and strengths together. As a biracial queer neurodivergent woman, I understand the complexities of having to navigate marginalized identities.

I use multiple treatment modalities including Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and EMDR
I believe life is a journey over mountains and through valleys. At any point along the way a large or small obstacle may seem to obstruct the path and potentially end one's journey. Learning techniques to go over or around obstacles can thus become a valued life skill. Helping people learn the skills to navigate through life's good and not so good times is what therapy is for.

Oakland, CA 94609
Waitlist for new clients
My expertise is working with trauma, grief & sexual abuse of children, teens and adults using trauma focused CBT, EMDR, Brain Spotting &play therapy.
My experience comes from 31 years of helping children, adults, couples and families in both Community Mental Health and Private Practice. My approach is eclectic and tailored to each individual's needs to facilitate healing and growth. Through my years of experience I have witnessed over and over again people coming into therapy with great pain, discomfort and despair but with time, (sometimes within a very short time) their symptoms diminish and a whole new person emerges. Crisis times can be extremely painful and distressful but they can also be opportunities for growth and healing through therapy.
