Teletherapy for 90402

As a therapist, I specialize in working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma, including those who have suffered from narcissistic abuse, as well as those who are struggling with relationship issues. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, meaning that I prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for my clients to explore and process their experiences. Additionally, I incorporate attachment theory to help clients understand and heal from attachment wounds. I also offer co-parenting classes to assist parents in navigating the challenges of raising children in separated families.

Relationships bring happiness, but also create longing and loneliness. They can preoccupy us and destroy our sense of safety and self-respect. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, afraid, or lost, or are unable to decide about staying or leaving, have irresolvable conflicts, unmet needs, or feel devalued, I can help - also if you seek guidance with codependency, trauma, communication, intimacy or self-esteem. You'll gain awareness in your first session and quickly see changes in handling emotions, conflict, and boundaries. Whether seeking individual or couple counseling, you'll find solutions, empower, and an improved sense of well-being

No matter who you are, modern life requires that you juggle many roles and responsibilities, in limited amounts of time. Feeling like you're constantly behind and trying to catch up contributes to feelings of anxiety, which left unchecked can turn into depression and unhealthy patterns of coping. I help clients take control of their emotional lives by setting boundaries and discovering their inner strength to make new choices. My goal is to replace feelings of abandonment, anger, loneliness, and loss with hope.

It's important to note that I am NOT a Social Media influencer and your therapy will not end up anywhere outside the therapy office! Your feeling comfortable is a goal in therapy. Specifically, I specialize in working with COUPLES IN CRISIS, as well as with Men who are having difficulties in their relationships. I help couples navigate safely and WTHOUT BLAME through relational issues such as reactivity, betrayal, and intimacy issues and work towards a dialogue where both people feel seen and heard. In our work I come from a place that does not see people as problems but rather are suffering the effects of problems.

Creative people interest me--including those for whom the desire to create remains unfulfilled. I want to help you realize your potential as an artist and work through issues that prevent you from achieving your artistic and professional goals. Not infrequently, professional success (or lack of it) taxes one's relationships or allows one to avoid the arena of personal relationships entirely. We will explore the path of the creative life, with all its roses and thorns. Our goal is to locate that unique creative energy within you and to allow it expression within the context of a rich and rewarding personal life.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? Are you dissatisfied with or disengaged from your life and relationships? Or do you just feel like something is getting in the way of living the life you really want? Therapy can help you understand why these difficulties arise and help you discover what you can do to cope with these challenges now. I use a collaborative relational approach to engage your curiosity about how early experiences, unconscious motivations, thoughts, or fears may contribute to your life today. Together, we will work to foster compassion for your struggles and motivation to create the life you desire.
