Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in San Jose, CA

Do you feel stuck and worried you may not be able to find help? Maybe you have a habit or behavior you want to stop or change but can't seem to make more progress. Perhaps you're unhappy, anxious, or feel crazy sometimes. By the time many folks seek therapy for themselves or their child they have been hurting for a long time. Finding someone you can work well with is often very difficult. Love working with toddlers, kids, & teens. Am especially passionate about work with LGBTQ+ folx.

Finding the right therapist for you can feel daunting! You might wonder if it's possible for someone to really get you & if opening up is worth the risk. I connect well with those who feel set apart from those around them or have difficulty connecting with others. We come to know & understand ourselves in the context of relationships. Without authentic connections, we can end up feeling really stuck - disconnected from those around us & from ourselves. Through the experience of being with another person in a safe & accepting space, the therapeutic relationship offers a unique & meaningful opportunity for self-discovery & healing.

You’re tired of doing the same thing over and over and finding yourself in the same situation. You know that you’re smarter than this! You beat yourself up for making the same mistakes again and again. You know the answers --- love yourself, say no, check in with yourself --- but you can’t seem to translate that into day to day. You desperately want to find peace in your life, and in your relationships. You want to be fully yourself, to be whole and happy, to stand tall and walk in your strength. You know you’re good and kind and trustworthy and yet you still question yourself. Stop doubting yourself. Let's do this together!

Do you struggle with feelings of anxiety, depression, guilt or low self-esteem? Do you find yourself avoiding social engagements or so preoccupied with excessive worrying? Finding ways to navigate these difficult feelings can help you get back on track. I use a psychodynamic approach and CBT that focuses on uncovering patterns of behavior and ways of relating to ourselves and others that are often outside of our awareness. I also consider how our past impacts who we are today. Through acceptance and empathy, we will establish a trusting therapeutic relationship and work together toward your personal growth and self-discovery.
