Therapists in San Rafael, CA

It’s tough to go through the day dealing with overwhelming feelings of anxiety, anger, sadness, shame, or haunting memories. You may struggle with harsh self-criticism and a fear of failing while trying to maintain a facade of accomplishment and success. It can be exhausting to always feel the pressure to be perfect and support everyone else while neglecting your own needs. It might feel easier to push through alone than to ask for help, as you worry about being judged or burdening others. You could turn to unhealthy coping for relief, which leads to more stress. There is a way out, and I want to help you get your life back.

Вам нужна поддержка. Я здесь, чтобы помочь и поддержать ваш процесс исцеления. Целостное исцеление означает доверие и следование руководству своего тела в направлении исцеления. Я считаю, что симптомы - это не то, с чем можно воевать, а, скорее, они могут быть компасом для отслеживания эмоциональной боли. Я приглашаю вас ближе познакомиться с ощущениями вашего тела через внимательность и помочь вам воплотить в жизнь процесс исцеления и освобождения.

Carl Jung said: “It is what you are that heals, not what you know”. The journey of self-discovery is exactly that – getting to know and deeply appreciating your true and authentic self, even when that essence may be covered by trauma, hardship and suffering. It is this uncovering that many who experience psychotherapy to be transformative and healing refer to as a “re-birth”, a coming home to and an unfolding of who you truly are. Engaging in the process of self-inquiry can be a rewarding and even a life-changing experience, especially in the presence of an empathic and compassionate other.

In the journey towards healing and self-discovery, finding a therapist who truly understands the intersectionality of your experiences is key. As a therapist and part of the trans, queer, ethnic minority, multicultural, immigrant, trauma survivor, and (dis)ability communities, I'm dedicated to honoring all that makes you - you. The uniqueness of your journey, recognition of your experiences, and collaboration will be at the core of our work.

It’s my belief that each person possesses unique strengths, qualities and all the internal resources they need to overcome challenges they face in life. Unfortunately, sometimes along the way, we lose connection with what those strengths and resources are and my goal as a therapist is to help you discover and utilize those strengths to develop natural capacity to live a deeper, happier and more fulfilling life. I create a safe and nurturing environment for you, free from judgment and harmful messages, where you can explore yourself and find your way back to a sense of wholeness.

COUPLES: you feel disconnected, discouraged, and frustrated. Every conversation turns into an argument, so you barely talk to each other. You miss the times when you used to talk lovingly to each other, and touch each other the same way. This isn't the relationship you signed up for. You don't want to feel lonely in your own home anymore. Every effort you make to improve your relationship is met with resentment and resistance. You feel powerless, stuck, and overwhelmed.

The transitioning process from insight to endurance, and to action is supported by daily courage, perseverance, curiosity, resilience, and a community of like-minded individuals. When tendered with love, care, attention, nurture, and patience, the time spent on the path of self-inquiry yields its marvelous and magical fruits of maturity, wisdom, creativity, joy, desire, courage, passion, ease, freedom, love, compassion, mindfulness, connection, community, and acceptance.

The people who come to me are curious to get to know themselves in a deeper way. I support my clients with improving connection and conflict resolution in their relationships, embracing authenticity, managing perfectionism, setting healthy boundaries, interrupting unhelpful patterns, mindfully managing anxiety, and healing from trauma. Together, we can work toward both short-term and long-term change.
