Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in East Sacramento, Sacramento, CA

In my practice, I blend a warm, compassionate and respectful approach along with solid science and practical experience. Clients find that the simple act of talking in therapy provides a wealth of information which in turn brings decisions about what to do. My special areas of focus Include work with abuse and trauma survivors, relationship and intimacy issues, work concerns, culture and identity concerns, & chronic illness and health. I welcome adults and adolescents to my practice, and offer individual, couples and family therapy.

Welcome! I offer therapy, psychological testing for cognitive decision making capacity, workplace trainings, and Intuitive Eating coaching. In my practice I hope to create space where you can explore the possibility of a better tomorrow. In therapy, I specialize with eating/body image concerns, improving relationships, and changing phases of life and health. Through Capacity Assessment I help families answer important questions about their loved one's abilities, and complete the needed paperwork. Workplace trainings cover burnout, size bias, and Health at Every Size. Lastly, my 1:1 Intuitive Eating coaching includes a full e-course!

By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

You are a thoughtful, creative, and driven individual. Your friends, loved ones, and colleagues heavily depend on you, often leaving you feeling depleted. Your engery is often so focused on caring for others, that you forget to make space for your own wants and needs. Stressors associated with being a member of a marginalized community impact your day to day life. You desire to gain a better understanding of your identity or sexuality but need the space to do so. You constantly feel overwhelmed and on edge, due to feelings of anxiety, depression, life transitions or triggers related to past trauma.

Do you lay awake at night thinking about mistakes or worrying? Are you vulnerable, stuck, and needing guidance? I know that just below the surface is a part of you that is exquisite, courageous, and wise. You may need a mental health tune-up, deep work to process an injury, or ongoing support. Whether your a new parent, a parent-to-be, or grappling with transitions in life, I'd love to help you get into the flow. Clients appreciate my warmth, humor, open mindedness, and expertise working with a wide variety of struggles.

In our lives we experience painful feelings, and at times we may feel off-balance and lost.

I offer compassionate support and tools to help you identify both immediate and sustaining antidotes to your current struggle. I use a holistic approach to helping my clients, which may include a combination of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Buddhist-oriented psychology and mindfulness approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, emotion regulation, motivational interviewing, and communication skills training.

I believe our mutual job is to work together to help you find the best ways of dealing effectively with your problem. Sometimes, although we may know the answers to our problems, we have never been taught the skills to implement that knowledge. Part of my job is to use my expertise and education to teach those skills. For example, we may realize we are being misunderstood by others and work hard to be understood, but no matter how hard we try, nothing changes. Teaching communication skills is one of my areas of expertise that may prove useful.

I graduated from a M.S. mental health counseling program at Eastern Washington University in 1995, got certified and ran a private practice in Seattle from 1995 through 2003.

I worked, studied, and lived in Europe, East Asia, and Africa before teaching 10 years at San Jose State University, so I am comfortable and confident working with very different sorts of people and I want everyone and anyone to feel welcome and at ease in my care.

If you're navigating life challenges that affect your well-being and seeking effective coping strategies, longing to feel understood, supported, and guided toward a more positive perspective, I'm here to assist! My approach centers on you, prioritizing your needs to bring clarity and tranquility through clinical support tailored to your goals.
