Attachment-based Therapists in Vista, CA
I use EMDR therapy through a Trauma-Informed and Attachment-Based lens to help women process painful experiences, reduce emotional distress, and better understand the patterns keeping you stuck.
You may be the woman surviving in “go mode” — appearing capable and high functioning on the outside while internally carrying anxiety, emotional exhaustion, relationship stress, unresolved trauma, or a constant sense of overwhelm. Even while managing daily responsibilities, you are stuck in patterns of overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or disconnection from yourself and others, despite deeply wanting things to feel different. EMDR therapy helps reprocess painful and overwhelming experiences, so you no longer feel emotionally stuck in the past, creating space to move forward.

Tired of crying yourself to sleep, blowing up "for no reason", feeling "on edge" and nervous, bickering with significant others, and feeling the need to defend yourself ? Chronic conflict and stress can leave us feeling drained and exhausted, with little hope for the future and no desire to try again. Your life and relationships may be "stuck" in a cycle of unmet needs and misunderstandings. Few of us grew up in ideal families or learning all we need to know about managing conflict and expressing our needs and emotions effectively.

I was trained in DBT, CBT, SFBT, MST (Multi-Systemic Therapy) Attachment-based therapy in addition to working knowledge of effective coping mechanisms and interventions from additional types of therapy.
As an LMFT I have experience working with individuals from all walks of life and various age groups. Therapy does not have to be dry, boring, or scary and it's okay to havre fun in therapy. Although I may not have the same experiences as you, however, I know what it feels like to make mistakes, experience hurt, love, loss, pain and fear. I also know what it's like to rebuild myself and have success again. Everyone experiences a range of beliefs, thoughts, feelings, emotions, and situations that shape and mold us. Therefore, working with people in their time of need motivates me to assist them in finding balance in their lives.
