Therapists for Teens in San Jose, CA

Accepting NEW Clients! I'm a LMFT, first-gen immigrant, single mother of 2 beautiful biracial children, a creative artist & a director of a crisis program at a nonprofit org. Through my personal experience, I've navigated the challenges of adapting to a new culture after moving from France at 12. I experienced the struggles of displacement, longing, & searching for belonging that many first-gen immigrants face. I'm dedicated to helping you overcome obstacles, embrace your identity and find wholeness. Together, we'll explore narratives, uncover puzzle pieces, and embark on a transformative journey towards self-acceptance & resilience

Congratulations on taking the courageous step to begin therapy. As we all know, life can be challenging and demanding at times. This may lead us to feeling sad, angry, hopeless or confused. We may feel stuck and not know how to move forward; which can be a very lonely and scary place to be as well. However, you are not alone and healing is possible! My role as a therapist is to provide a safe place and offer warmth and empathy throughout this collaborative process, in order to help you in exploring your thoughts and feelings, as well as guide you in developing insight and identifying skills to achieve the thriving life you deserve.

Learn how to feel more connected to yourself, others and the world around you. Therapy provides all the elements of intimacy: honest communication, vulnerability and trust. Good therapy is challenging yet warm, providing both structure and empathy for your unique experience. We are a collective of therapists with a wide range of specialties. Our intake professionals will help connect you with the right therapist for your needs. We make appointments easy, offering evenings and weekends and flexibility for creative professionals who can't make the same time each week.

I’m passionate about creating a resting place for spiritual souls that have experienced church hurt, spiritual trauma and those that are struggling with sexual addictions, helping them see how beautiful they are in the midst of uncertainty and change. When it feels like your life seems to be unraveling and entering unchartered territory, where once the sources of connection and safety no longer feel like a place of belonging, that can feel extremely scary. Without a safe place to process and heal from these wounds, this sense of unsettling won’t just magically disappear even if you leave that triggering environment.

Writer John O'Donohue defines my view of being a therapist: "This is what therapy is about: helping people retrieve what has been lost to them, wakening and bringing home their fundamental wholesomeness.. Therapists are like poets: they draw on the power of words in the profoundly creative work of bringing people fully alive to themselves, awakening in them the human capacity for divine imagination that ‘dreams our completion’.”

I am passionate and experienced at working with: - Survivors of abusive relationships, sexual assault, stalking - Sex and relationships - Fertility struggles - New moms, mom guilt, scary thoughts, and pregnancy - Queer, trans, non-binary, and questioning individuals - Panic attacks and anxiety - Unpacking and transforming biases based on privileged identities - People who have never done therapy before

Has trauma, anxiety, or depression interfered with the potential to become the best version of yourself? We often feel defined by traumatic or emotionally difficult experiences then often leave us feeling stuck in place rather than moving forward towards our goals. I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space for you to develop an understanding of yourself to overcome past experiences or fears that define you. Our work together will be met with unconditional acceptance, creative approaches, and the utmost compassion.

In a way, life is a puzzle. With many pieces to choose from, we try to find those pieces that fit smoothly together. However, life becomes troubling when what we have chosen doesn't fit and the same problems seem to occur in one situation after another, making life seem even more frustrating and confusing. I am trained as both an artist and a psychotherapist and work in a collaborative style. After 20 years of experience, I bring a little humor and grace while learning to think creatively to move through the maze of life, it is an exciting possibility.

I believe that all of us, at different times in our lives, may face unexpected challenges.

Taking the steps to start a professional relationship with a trusted therapist can be healing and life changing. As you explore and reflect on what may be happening in your life right now, you’ll gain greater clarity about what deeply matters most to you, and develop a more authentic connection to yourself and others you care about.

Sudden and dramatic life transitions can rock our world, causing us to frequently feel disoriented and unsettled. Whether such moments are encountered through loss of a loved one, divorce, trauma, substance recovery or something equally profound, ones faith, meaning, purpose, and direction is often called on as a means to sustain us. I welcome the opportunity to work with you to heuristically discover and strengthen your inner-self and potentiality.
