Medi-Cal Therapists in South Pasadena, CA
You might look like you have it together on the outside, but internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. Maybe you overthink your relationships, struggle to set boundaries, or carry stress in your body that never fully goes away. I work with teens and adults from diverse and marginalized backgrounds who are navigating anxiety, identity, and relationship challenges. I understand that culture and lived experiences shape how we see ourselves and connect with others, and I strive to create a space where every part of you feels seen, respected, and understood.

Pressured to find a fulfilling career, nurture meaningful relationships, wash dishes and laundry, eat healthy, workout, develop a “self-care” routine, pursue hobbies, sleep for 8 hours, and maintain family responsibilities, all in one day? Do you feel trapped in past pain and trauma, or frozen by the daunting future? Do you feel exceptionally hard on yourself? You are not alone. You might be struggling with anxiety, which makes total sense. I believe our anxiety comes from the disconnection between what we have been told to believe about ourselves, in terms of living, loving, and being successful, and what actually feels authentic.

Do you feel like you’re doing everything you’re supposed to do, but something still doesn’t feel quite right? You don’t need to have the perfect words for what’s going on. We can start with what feels off and figure it out together. You can be real with me, especially when life feels complicated or messy. We’ll talk about what’s hurting and what isn’t working, but we won’t stop there. Therapy shouldn’t become another place where the focus is only on what you’re doing wrong. We’ll look at the whole picture, dive into what’s really going on, and figure out what you need most right now.

I'm paneled with HealthNet & Anthem Medi-Cal plans.
People I work with often feel anxious, directionless, or overwhelmed by despair—sometimes disconnected from others or from themselves. They may be in a hard transition, grieving, or living with chronic illness; burnout or a loss of faith may be in the background. They want real hope, freedom from feeling trapped, and a path toward a more fulfilling life. Together, we work to quiet the noise, look closely at what hurts and what matters, and practice small changes between sessions. When helpful, we integrate EMDR to reprocess painful experiences, unwinding ways suffering has fused with identity, and reconnect with their true self.

I am paneled with MHN and Anthem Medi-Cal plans - if you are covered for seeing an OON provider, I can provide you with a superbill.
Seeking the support of a therapist can be a powerful step toward increasing self-awareness and the ability to change patterns that are no longer working. Change in therapy happens through a process of increased self-understanding, practicing new ways of engaging (with yourself, with others, with a particular problem or set of issues), and development and practice of coping strategies. I collaborate with my clients to identify and work toward treatment goals, using a combination of practical skills and deeper work to explore and repair root issues that may be contributing to current problems.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, whether you are navigating grief, relationship struggles, work stress, or the complexities of aging? Life has a way of presenting us with moments that feel isolating and hard to face alone. Whether you are grieving a loss, supporting a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia, working through a difficult life transition, or simply trying to feel more like yourself again, this is a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. I also love working with couples at any stage of life who are ready to deepen their connection and communication.

Our struggles and stories we tell about ourselves can be entry points to where our patterns, thoughts, values, actions, attitudes, reactions, and emotions originate. Our struggles can stem from: our families, our childhood, our communities, our cultures, and more. My role is to help my clients explore the stories and struggles that continue to make them feel stuck, and that prevent them from living the lives they are seeking. By learning about ourselves, we can find more agency, choice, and satisfaction. We can discover new ways to relate to ourselves and others.
