Therapists in Santa Rosa, CA

Are you a woman who feels like something's missing in your life, or in you? Do you tend to put your needs last or minimize your problems? Maybe you're hard on yourself too. And you've been pulled off balance by: stress, anxiety, self-doubt, depression, grief, life transition, relationship struggles or career/life dissatisfaction. I counsel and coach women just like you through challenging and confusing life passages and difficult times. I'll help you reclaim the wise, empowered woman within and also encourage you to see yourself as worthy and good enough. The result: self-compassion, self-belief, deeper connections, more aliveness.

Individuals desirous to discover the deeper self that resides within. Persons committed to growing beyond the history that stunts curiosity and a sense of purpose in life. People with enough life experience to know that life requires introspection, discomfort at times and build the capacity to appreciate personal and psychological accomplishment. Couples that want to build a better relationship by solving problems from the foundation of love that brought them together. Men who have reached mid-life and seek to live fully the next part of life . People who will invest the time and money it takes for positive change.
