Teen Therapists in East Sacramento, Sacramento, CA

Hello! My theoretical orientation draws from integrative and humanistic-existential psychology, meaning I believe in providing well rounded care that emphasizes the inherent value of being human. With my education in Catholic theology, I seek to provide quality care that empowers my clients to develop the confidence to manage their mental health and gain greater fulfillment in their lives by integrating their mental health and Catholic faith. Whether this means addressing childhood trauma or current and brief stressors, my goal is to assist a client in cultivating a greater self-understanding and acceptance of who they are in God.

I primarily work with children ages 6 and up on issues related to anxiety, depression, school stress, executive functioning/ADHD or other school-related struggles. In addition to one on one counseling services, I do a 6 week yoga/group counseling workshop after school for kids ages 7-10, and a teen yoga group is starting soon as well. More info on my website.

My goal is to help individuals and families in crisis. I have 4 areas of passion. I love working with children, teenagers, and their parents. My second area of passion is working with narcissistic recovery and survivors of narcissistic relationships (both adults and children). Third, working with my clients to rewire their brains and change emotional reactions. I integrate experiential interventions, mindfulness, coping, and other tools in both individual adult and adolescent therapy. Finally, I enjoy neuropsychological and psychological assessments for all age groups.

Do you worry that you're "too sensitive," too easily overwhelmed, or that you need to "toughen up"? You often feel like there's something wrong with you that needs to be fixed. You may be struggling to come to terms with past wounds or traumas and then get angry and irritated with yourself for not "getting over it" already. You wonder why other people are able to brush things off so easily, but you still feel depressed, anxious, and stuck. Dealing with all these feelings means you're not your best self at work, in school, or with your loved ones, which really bothers you because you care so much about not letting anyone down.

The idea that one learns by experiencing and is truly capable of making the necessary shifts in their lives is a mantra I live by. When one person mirrors another with gentle listening, others are able to clearly see what no longer works in their lives. Ingrained habits coming from difficult childhoods could be the very source of havoc, that with conscious awareness, can shift. Perhaps the way one communicates is keeping love from flowing in your life. Maybe parenting a child who reminds you of yourself means confronting yourself on a deeply personal level. Or perhaps it is simply a life transition that is simply too much.

Hello, over the last 10 years I've enjoyed working together with people as they took on the problems they faced. I've helped people work on range of problems, from challenging behaviors to other internal problem. I've worked with incredible resilient young people and adults who've had relationships with trauma, anxiety, and depression. I've also worked with young people in foster care and members of the LGBTQ community using a narrative approach. Being present and sharing space with someone trying to make a positive change in their life, has always been a great privlidge for me.

Brene Brown says, "If we really want to live a joyful, connected, and meaningful life, we must talk about things that get in the way.” - There are times in our lives where we feel disconnected with ourselves, others, and the world around us, and instead of living with compassion, clarity, and stillness, you are stuck feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, helpless, frustrated. It's so hard to do that alone - you're not supposed to do this on your own. I am here to support you get you out of the trenches. I am passionate about helping you navigate this journey of self-discovery towards growth and healing.

In-person therapy is where it’s at! Have you tried in-person therapy? If yes, then you know the power it can have to help. If no, then I urge you to reach out and schedule - with me or another therapist with an office. Let isolation be over. Being private with things is good, as far as it goes but doesn’t do much to move us out of endless loops or confusing despair. I have no agenda for you but to be well. What can I do to help?
