Chronic Illness Therapists in San Jose, CA
As a therapist, I am direct, compassionate, and actively engaged in the work. I take a systems-based approach, paying attention to how emotional, relational, and behavioral patterns develop and repeat over time. I specialize in codependency and have extensive experience supporting families and loved ones affected by addiction. I believe therapy is most effective when clients engage at their own pace, taking what resonates and leaving the rest. I value honesty, collaboration, and open feedback, and I support clients in developing self-esteem, self-confidence, and a stronger sense of self.

Avoid the commute and try Online therapy! I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). A very effective and helpful therapy that cuts talk time in half, and focuses on releasing present and past emotional distress. I also use the latest mindfulness techniques, among others, to provide you with a personalizad and comprehensive treatment. It is not uncommon for someone to find themselves in a state of emotional reaction, due to negative childhood experiences, life challenges, trauma or constant relationship problems. This is not only an emotional response, but a physical and spiritual one as well.

You may feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally stuck, even if you appear high-functioning on the outside. You may have tried talk therapy, gained insight, and still notice anxiety, stress, or emotional patterns that don’t fully shift. You’re seeking gentle, trauma-informed support that goes deeper without pressure or reliving the past. You want more than coping—you want to feel calmer in your body, emotionally regulated, and reconnected with your inner wisdom and authentic self, so change feels safe, grounded, and lasting.

They may feel stuck in painful relationships that aren't working, or stuck with intense feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, dread, or inner pain.
