Female Therapists in Santa Rosa, CA

For over 20 years I have been helping men, women and couples when their lives have become painful, deadened, upsetting, or when unexpected events disrupted their lives. I will join with you to help tolerate immediate concerns, to develop effective techniques for you, and if you want, explore further possibilities for more satisfying relationships and life. I'm experienced in both brief, solution-focused therapy, and exploratory deep therapy. I offer clients an empathic, collaborative and individually-focused therapeutic relationship: the surprising paradox of relationship is how we can become more true to ourselves by fully being with someone else.

I specialize in supporting women during life transitions. This might be due to welcoming a new child into your home and relationship, life stage (perimenopause /menopause), ending a relationship or a chronic illness. You might be experiencing a sense that you have lost a part of yourself. Maybe your anxiety or depression is preventing you from enjoying your life fully, or feeling overwhelmed with how to move forward with the life that you want. Often during life's transitions it is a powerful time to take a pause and reflect. I am here to support you as a guide back to your own inner wisdom and path home to yourself.

I help kids, teens, and families experiencing divorce create a fulfilling “new normal” by moving from stuck and overwhelmed to thriving and free. I know that you are more than a person going through a divorce.

Therapy can be a scary journey to embark on, or possibly a taboo, depending on your culture. As a Hispanic woman , who once was a single mom, and now having a blended family, I have experienced many challenges. I have felt lost and thought no one understood me, and though some days are still harder than others, I have been triumphant and regained a sense of control in my life. People come to me when life circumstances have become too overwhelming and no longer know how to regain control of their life. I have worked with diverse populations: race, age, gender, multiracial, single mothers, perinatal and postpartum, to name a few.
