Cancer Therapists in Walnut Creek, CA
Let's face it. Life is a juggling act between home, work, school, friends and family. Our bodies are bioenergetic systems geared for balance. When things go well, our energy flows and we feel good. When life happens and stress occurs, we can feel anxiety, depression and physical pain. We reach outside ourselves for relief when going inside is the answer. If you are ready for change and are committed to making that happen, please make an appointment today. My approach is wholistic and I use Energy Psychology (Tapping), Zen Buddhism and Mindfulness to achieve a client's goals.

If you or your child are struggling, it can be hard to know where to start. We work with children, teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, big emotions, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of the families we see are looking for support not just for their child, but for how to feel more confident and effective as parents. We help make sense of what’s going on and create a clear, supportive path forward.

It can be a lonely and overwhelming feeling to realize that your life doesn't match who you were meant to be.

I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families dealing with dual diagnoses, trauma and PTSD, substance abuse, personality disorders, mood disorders and thought disorders.

When we feel stuck in our situation, it can create feelings of hopelessness. In addition to the many problems that complicate our daily lives such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, patients come to me with complex relationship issues including marital distress, divorce recovery, verbal & emotional abuse, loss of child, parent, or spouse. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective, to address the root problem, not just the symptoms. Like physical therapy, the goal is to get well and end treatment. I offer perspective on your experience, and provide clear, concise directions on meeting your treatment goals.

I've worked for many years with parents, children, couples and individuals to change what isn't working and create a life that does work and is free of anxiety, stress, and anger.

I appreciate helping individuals and couples develop deeper relationships and find more joy in day to day living. Life can be tough. Good therapy offers support, a place to be heard, guidance, and sometimes a place to hear truths that you may not want to hear, but need to hear. I offer a supportive and direct approach to those needing help with sex and relationship issues, anxiety, depression, anger management, trauma, and addictions. I also have a special spot in my heart to support those who have dealt with loss, whether recently or many years ago. Therapy is a space to adapt, stretch, and grow.

I am passionate about connecting with people about their personal goals. From there, we can develop your emotional toolkit to approach issues and promote change in your mental well-being. Life will throw many things at you and when we have not processed our past traumas or taken the time to develop how to emotionally regulate ourselves, we can be reactive to people and things we deeply care about. Together, in the safety of therapeutic work, we can deconstruct old patterns and rebuild new ones.
