Teletherapy for South Pasadena, CA

Many of my clients struggle with distressing thoughts and feelings. My clients often make mental and physical efforts to relieve the distress but are generally unable to find lasting relief. Many suffer in silence as thoughts become too difficult to talk about. My clients want to live life without so much fear, anxiety, guilt, and time-consuming behaviors.

When we can gain control over the elements that bring us down, anxiety, depression, and doubt, a sense of hope that healing is possible can arise. My goal is to help you break free from felt limitations, recover vital parts of yourself, and engage in a life with meaning. My experience includes helping people recover from the debilitating effects of trauma, complex trauma, and PTSD; manage and recover from anxiety, depression, grief, shame, and loss.

I believe therapy to be a safe place where someone who is in need of help can be heard free of judgment. One of the main keys of therapy is working together on eliminating behaviors and belief patterns that do not help you grow as a person. By using various approaches that are tailored to your needs, therapy will assist in the development of tools and skills, which will help support personal growth. (Mi lengua materna es el español si le es mas agusto comunicarse asi).

Giving you the tools to navigate work, environment, and family is very important to me. Being the best version of yourself is something we can work on together.

I believe deeply in the transformative potential and enduring nature of psychotherapy. When we're feeling stuck, confused or alone, therapy can help us to untangle our emotions, clarify our struggles, and better understand ourselves and others - ultimately forming inroads to real and lasting change. I am a compassionate and collaborative therapist: I establish a safe, non-judgmental space where our mutual exploration of your relationships, family history, career, sexuality, or whatever is troubling you currently - as well as aspects of our therapeutic relationship - will open pathways to new awareness and opportunities for welcome change, growth and healing.

Personal and family problems can seem unending. They can become the entire focus of one's life. It doesn't have to be that way. Let's do something about them.

Let's create a work space; with trust and curiosity; a therapy laboratory! and go on an inner journey, a journey to discover; make an emotional excavation! listen to the unconscious, explore dreams, allow the child part of you in.

I know what it’s like to struggle, to be unsure of yourself and your relationships, to feel stuck. I believe therapy is an act of courage and hope, and I applaud anyone considering this form of self-support. My goal is to help you learn how to better help yourself, and I’ve been humbled by the strength I’ve seen in my clients. In our work, I'll position myself as a relational therapist, meaning we'll use our relationship to better understand how you view yourself and others, and we’ll collaborate to modify any beliefs, patterns of behavior, or ways of relating that get in the way of your living more of the life you want.
