Psychodynamic Therapists in Thousand Oaks, CA
Do you have trouble with anxiety, depression, and relationship/family issues due to trauma? Past experiences can create imprints onto your brain that activate your fight/flight responses whenever your emotions feel dysregulated, but life without the constant feeling of being on edge is possible. Those traumatic memories don’t have to permanently influence who you are meant to be. Through therapy, you will gain control of your feelings/thoughts and your response to everyday life hurdles. Healing from trauma can create healthier beliefs about yourself and your relationships along with sustainable changes.

Trauma, anxiety, and addiction can make you feel stuck. The most important step towards healing is to address the unresolved emotion inside you. Healing requires feelings. Acceptance slowly dissolves pain. When we function from the fear and scarring of our trauma, the cycles continue until we learn how to transmute that energy into love. I apply a Holistic approach that integrates physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual forms of well-being, addressing the “whole” self. Through a holistic framework tailored to your unique needs, the goal is to support you develop a deeper understanding of the self on all these levels.

Do you feel like you are walking on eggshells all the time and find yourself overthinking everything? You spend so much time trying to please others that you do not even know what you want anymore…and forget decision making! Every task takes so long you dread starting anything. Your to do list is getting longer and you feel angry and irritated with everyone. You feel people take advantage of you. You do not trust your own feelings, so you have given up even trying to ask for what you want. Even in the few times you express anger to someone, you find them talking you out of it. You wonder why you brought up the issue at all.

I work with people who are thoughtful, capable, self-aware... and exhausted by their own minds. Functioning well on the outside doesn't mean you're not constantly vibrating on the inside: replaying conversations, worrying over health fears that won’t quiet down even after reassurance, or feeling the constant pressure to do better, be better, and stay in control. When anxiety starts taking up too much space, it usually means the ways you've been trying to cope aren't enough anymore. Sometimes what's needed isn't more effort, but a different way of looking at the problem.
