Therapists in Cupertino, CA

At times, the weight of the world can be overwhelming. We may grow up believing that we are not enough and that we have to be perfect. We may have inherited messages from our family or from society that puts us down, especially if we come from a marginalized identity. This can make us feel hopeless or ungrounded and we may act out in ways that we aren't proud of.

Shame can't survive if we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding. Healing is inherently relational. It is my belief that the longer a person is unable to repair broken attachment patterns and insecure attachment behaviors, the more likely it is that they will find these patterns and behaviors replicated in their adult relationships. My background in philosophy uniquely equips me to address existential concerns and the profound anxieties that accompany modern life, offering a powerful tool for navigating these challenges.

Clients who seek me out for therapy often identify with historically underrepresented groups such as Black, Indigenous, people of transnational-immigrant diaspora, LGBTQIA+ individuals/couples/CNM configurations, sex workers, and more. My therapy services include but are not limited to supporting individuals/couples/CNM configurations navigating life transitions, processing trauma to release the influence of the past on the present, as well as finding/developing their emotional balance. I have experience working with Consensually Nonmonogamous Configurations as well as Kinky populations in regard to my relational work.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, and I have been practicing for the last 9 years. I have extensive experience working with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, addiction, grief and loss, relationship struggles, and difficult life transitions. My goal is to assist my clients in improving their lives by taking a holistic, client-centered, integrative approach that is culturally affirming. I strive to create a safe space that is collaborative, non-judgmental, and strength-based, which aids in promoting healing.

Finding the right therapist for you can feel daunting! You might wonder if it's possible for someone to really get you & if opening up is worth the risk. I connect well with those who feel set apart from those around them or have difficulty connecting with others. We come to know & understand ourselves in the context of relationships. Without authentic connections, we can end up feeling really stuck - disconnected from those around us & from ourselves. Through the experience of being with another person in a safe & accepting space, the therapeutic relationship offers a unique & meaningful opportunity for self-discovery & healing.

Hi and welcome! I combine traditional and holistic therapeutic approaches to support and facilitate client curiosity, exploration, and growth. My therapy practice is oriented as anti-oppression, anti-racist, community oriented, feminist, wherein I view therapy as social justice work. I am dedicated to maintaining a strength-based, compassionate, light-hearted space to support clients in strengthening their self-awareness, self-advocacy and connecting them with the wisdom that is already there. My goal is to meet my clients 'where' they are and maintain unconditional positive regard for clients, and their loved ones.

I strive to integrate and honor the wisdom and inherited medicine my clients carry to move toward embodied wellness. My intention is to curate a space to help you reclaim your narrative, realign with your authentic self, and orient towards what is possible - to return home to healing and hope.

You have been living through a stressful and exhausting time. A global pandemic is constantly changing your relationships and the way you live your life. You have also been exposed to an unprecedented amount of collective trauma both within your communities, and on a larger global scale. You're finding it harder to get a good night's rest, and you struggle to find meaning in a world that seems overwhelmingly painful to exist in. You want things to be different, but you don't know how.

Are you ready for the work necessary to make real, enduring change? I work with a variety of matters, ranging from depression and anxiety, to relationship struggles and psychosis. I seek people who are interested in making lasting changes to their inner lives and circumstances. In my practice, I provide you with a place to speak freely, so that through this unique experience of speaking, you can articulate your desire in a new way. I have extensive training and experience working with adults, youth, families and couples. I specialize in providing a place of discovery for people who are queer, trans, and gender expansive.

I provide trauma-informed therapy grounded in principles of relational attachment, existential psychotherapy, feminist multicultural psychotherapy, and harm reduction. My practice is affirming of neuro-, sexual, gender, and relational (monogamy, non-monagamy/polyam, kink) diversity. I predominantly work with queer and neurodivergent adults.

Do you feel isolated, overwhelmed, or hopeless? Are you struggling with relationship conflict, trauma, or loss? Do you have concerns about your identity or feelings of low self-esteem? Whatever may bring you to therapy, you deserve to have support in what you’re going through. In either in-person or virtual sessions, I prioritize providing a safe, accepting space for adults, adolescents, and children to explore a wide variety of issues. I work with clients from a variety of backgrounds, and as a non-binary therapist, I have particular passion for working with LGBTQ+ and gender-expansive clients of any age.

Therapy is a journey of personal growth and healing. It takes courage and can be challenging, but you don’t have to embark alone. My hope is that, as your therapist, I can be the holder of hope and a source of support. At the root of my work with clients are genuine empathy and human connection. I strive to provide an accepting and safe space for you to express yourself and process what has brought you into therapy.

Do you feel stuck and worried you may not be able to find help? Maybe you have a habit or behavior you want to stop but can't seem to make lasting progress. Perhaps you're unhappy, anxious, exhausted, or feel like you don't know if you will ever get better. By the time most folks seek therapy, they have been stressed or hurting for a long time. Finding someone you can work with, who gets you, is often a very difficult process. ◇I love working with toddlers, kids, couples, & families too! We can do nature walks or meet inside. Attuning to BIPOC experiences, and special focus on LGBTQIA+ community are important to my work & life.

Throughout life, many of us receive messages that make us question our place or urge us to alter ourselves to fit societal norms. I work LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent individuals who are working on self-discovery and unlearning as well as seeking answers to questions about identity, belonging, and authenticity. Whether you are grappling with aspects of personal identity, past or present trauma or oppression, or challenging relationship dynamics, we will work collaboratively towards positive growth. I also offer support for those seeking help around queer conception, infertility, family building.

I have been working in Sonoma County with teens, adults, partners, and families for over 20 years and have recently joined the Quest Family Therapy team. With a collaborative and playful approach, I strive to support people to live more authentic lives and find their way to the change they are seeking, whether it is improving their mood, deepening their connection with themselves and loved ones, or finding and expressing their authentic selves. My work is strongly rooted in attachment theory, depth psychology, mindfulness, and somatic practices.

I am accepting new clients! I have had the privilege of working with a diverse set of clients with a wide range of backgrounds and needs. I offer a supportive space that counters the normativity within this culture that often is oppressive to people based on their identities. I recognize that what healing journey one person, relationship or family may need may be different than another and help to support you on that journey. In addition to being neurodivergent and transgender myself, I have also supported folks who are neurodivergent, queer and/or plural.
