Therapists in Sebastopol, CA

It is within your reach to live a life that is calmer, more grounded and satisfying - where you're not overwhelmed or completely detached - no matter how you are feeling right now or what happened before. You feel on guard, emotionally and physically flooded, disempowered, alone, and hijacked by triggers. Maybe you feel like you cannot trust yourself or others, and your self-confidence is suffering. Whether you're here because of a traumatic event or you have experienced multiple hardships in life, it is possible to get through this, reclaim your spirit and self, and help your mind/body be here in the present moment.

I work with my clients from a whole person approach, and am passionate about supporting people of color, individuals and couples in life transition, and children and their parents. I believe that cultural empathy is a real skill, and being able to hold space for clients in this way is particularly important to me. My approach is client centered with a depth orientation and I meet all my clients and their families where they are at developmentally, emotionally, and experientially to support them in identifying and healing the experiences they believe are holding them back emotionally from living their fullest life.

Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or a continuation of your therapy journey, I want to acknowledge the time you are taking to support yourself by seeking change. I think of therapy as a commitment to making space for things that often don’t get enough space in everyday life— space settle into oneself, to take pause, to be witnessed, to be with experiences and support awareness as it emerges. I believe that awareness leads to choice, and that in therapy we can co-create a space to explore your experiences, building greater awareness of needs, boundaries, and patterns of experience.

Many people feel disconnected from their true selves going through life looking o.k. on the outside but feeling awful on the inside. This causes all kinds of symptoms: depression, irritability, anxiety, alienation, boredom, dissatisfaction, lack of motivation, and disinterest in life. Through our work together, I help you to access deeper parts of yourself which can bring back vitality and meaning into your life. Problems often arise from childhood issues or from life transistions; college, marriage, birth, divorce, or death of a loved one. Through developing a deeper connection with yourself suffering can be transformed into growth and strength.

Therapy provides the opportunity to address personal concerns while identifying strengths to improve functioning, recovery, and growth.

I can help you build self-esteem and social skills, improve communication skills, and provide the tools to help cope with emotions.

I consider myself a nerdy-geeky person who incorporates storytelling techniques in my therapy sessions. If you're seeking relief from your symptoms, a safe space to work through personal issues, or simply a place to vent, I can be of assistance. My ideal client is someone who understands that therapy requires active participation and engagement, rather than a passive experience. They also appreciate the power of humor in building authenticity. While I wish I could solve everything, we need to work together to bring about the desired changes. I meet you where you are and support you in your personal journey.

Hi! I'm so glad you're here. Welcome to my profile. Many of the clients I've worked with have experienced a sense of feeling stuck in some area of their life whether it's in their relationships with themselves or with others.

I offer support in coming into greater clarity, connection, self assuredness, ease and peace about the past, where you are now, and where you hope to go or get to within yourself and relationships.
