Native American Therapists in San Francisco, CA
As a mixed indigenous person, I offer inclusive, multicultural, person centered and trauma-informed care.
Life is a beautiful thing, and is a complex thing that brings with it challenges and opportunities to grow, heal, and soften our edges. Intergenerational trauma, personal experiences, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, stress, as well as relationships and cultural expectations, can all affect how we see ourselves and interact with the world around us. By helping you unearth connections between mind and body, we can integrate each aspect that makes you, you.

The clients I work best with are often in a process of reevaluating their lives—whether they’re in recovery and ready to take a deeper look at what’s driving their patterns, feeling stuck in old patterns, or trying to make sense of past experiences. They might be struggling with imposter feelings, navigating transitions, or trying to reconnect with a sense of purpose.
Many come to therapy wanting to better understand themselves and live in a way that feels more aligned with who they truly are. I work well with people who are open to reflection and ready to explore what matters most in a grounded, collaborative space.

I understand how sad and scary it can feel when you're struggling in a relationship. I help LGBTQ and CNM people heal issues with relationships, sexuality, and negative life patterns. Together we’ll make a plan to move forward improving your relationships, which involves a combination of learning to feel and understand your emotions, and using mindfulness to help you soothe yourself if the emotions get too big to manage in the moment. For CNM people, we’ll talk a lot about what these relationships can be like and figure out what does and doesn’t work for you. We’ll work as a team!

As an Indigenous woman, I take a holistic approach and welcome all identities and lived experiences.
You’ve spent years trying to outrun anxiety, overthinking, or that lingering fear of not being “good enough.” You function, you show up, you keep going – but deep down you feel tense, on edge, or stuck in patterns you can’t shake. Maybe old memories still live in your body, or certain triggers send you spiraling fast. You want real change, not another bandaid. You want to feel calm, clear, and finally free from the past so you can move forward feeling grounded, secure, and connected to yourself.

I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify and shift negative thought patterns that may be impacting your daily life. Our thoughts shape the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us—sometimes in ways that create stress, self-doubt, or emotional distress. Through our work together, you'll gain the tools to challenge unhelpful beliefs, build healthier coping strategies, and develop a greater sense of control over your emotions and reactions.

Becoming our most alive and authentic self is the goal of psychotherapy. If you are like many of the people that I work with, you have felt that being yourself wasn't accepted or valued in relationships, your family, or the world in general. In therapy, you have the opportunity to non-judgmentally challenge and change these learned beliefs and grow into your true self. I am especially interested in working with couples, relationship problems, anxiety, trauma, sex and sexuality, and LGBTQ.

My ideal client is someone who may be struggling with symptoms of depression and anxiety—perhaps they feel persistently overwhelmed, fatigued, disconnected, or weighed down by a sense of hopelessness. They may experience racing thoughts, constant worry, or find themselves avoiding situations out of fear or dread. These symptoms might be interfering with their relationships, work, and overall sense of self-worth.
What makes this client ideal is not the absence of struggle, but their openness to engage in the therapeutic process. They may not have all the answers—and that's okay—but they recognize that something needs to change.

FAQ - Native American Therapists
What are the advantages of seeing a Native American therapist?
Therapists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions through various forms of talk therapy and behavioral interventions. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is an essential part of feeling supported and understood in care. For many Native American individuals, working with a provider who shares or respects their cultural background can foster a deeper sense of trust and connection in the therapeutic process. Native American therapists may be especially well-equipped to address topics such as historical trauma, intergenerational grief, and cultural identity—factors that can significantly shape the mental health experiences of Native American clients. These providers may also be knowledgeable about and incorporate Indigenous healing traditions, which can be beneficial for clients seeking this approach. Additionally, Native American therapists may be more familiar with community resources, support networks, or other culturally-aligned providers who can offer further support.
How to find a Native American therapist?
Psychology Today’s online directory is a useful tool for finding a Native American therapist. You can filter for providers who identify as Native American or who mention working with Indigenous populations and highlight cultural competence in their profiles. Look for signs such as experience with tribal communities, familiarity with Native traditions, or a focus on trauma-informed care. Depending on your preferences and needs, it may also be important to ask whether a provider offers telehealth, which therapeutic approaches they use, and whether they accept your insurance. If you're unable to find a therapist who personally identifies as Native American, you may also consider providers who have experience working with Native clients or who demonstrate a clear commitment to cultural humility and respect for Native American beliefs and traditions. You might also consider a blended approach—for example, seeing a therapist for talk therapy while also seeing a Native healer or counselor for more culturally-specific support.
