You want to live the life you imagined for yourself; however, you find that self-criticism, painful past experiences, & negative feedback from others are taking up most of the space in your head. Your mental & physical energy are drained, leaving you feeling stuck and unmotivated. Your joy & hope are held captive & you find yourself in survival mode doing just what it takes to get through the day. You look at others & long for the success, confidence, & meaningful relationships that they seem to have mastered. You've tried many things (maybe even other therapists) & haven't achieved lasting change.
You know with safety, trust, & a supportive relationship you could dig deep, do the work, & create lasting change in your life. You can see a future where you feel confident, are your whole, authentic self, & have meaningful relationships. You feel good about your contribution to others & the world. You are not just existing, but finding joy & truly living.
Text me to be warmly welcomed into a safe, trusting, & supportive space. I join you as an accessible & kind human who also brings skill & 6 yrs experience as a therapist to support you on your journey. I am trauma informed, LGBTQIA+ friendly, love & am experienced with intimate partner/family relationships, offer EMDR, & telehealth services across CA.
