Teletherapy for 94040

Change can be rewarding, even exciting, when undertaken with the right support. In these uncertain times, I am committed to providing calming, nourishing help. I am warm, collaborative, understanding, and real. Let's connect so you can tap into greater ease, clarity, and connection.

My therapeutic style is above all relational, meaning that my relationship with my clients is of utmost importance in developing the trust needed to address life's challenges, stressors and suffering. It is in this initial rapport building where I come to know each client's particular life situation, culture, needs and goals. I have worked for over 34 years in a broad range of settings, providing services to clients over the entire life span. I hold your wellness in high regard and respect the very difficult life decisions that we all must make to have a life worth living.

Are you suffering and struggling in the living nightmare of an anxiety problem? Perhaps you are avoiding people, places or activities because of fear, panic or obsessive worrying. Maybe you have been suffering from a lack of sleep and feeling stressed and tired most of the time. Sleep medications and advice from friends or the internet might just make the problems worse. Maybe you're stuck in the never-ending rut of a bad habit or addiction that you can't seem to stop turning to for relief from your problems. Maybe you're unsatisfied in your relationships, overwhelmed by conflicts and a lack of closeness with people you care about.

I meet people where they are in their life journey. Work and play need to be in balance to make life rewarding. My favorite people to work with are looking to make life more rewarding. I have a practical approach to getting past life's hurdles to what makes one happy. Life transitions can be difficult to navigate, so having guidance for the journey makes it easier. Finding motivators for my clients is my biggest goal, and results in people who are more fulfilled with all aspects of their lives. I use evidence-based treatment (EMDR, CBT, RNR) to move through a precise treatment plan so every client knows where they are going.

Are you tossing and turning in bed, struggling to fall asleep? Are you exhausted, but your brain just will not stop worrying about your day, your ability to fall asleep, and everything else in the world? Are you constantly checking the clock, and despairing? All you want is a good night of restful sleep.

I provide virtual therapy for individual adults in California and Massachusetts. Creating positive change in the face of turbulence in life can often be overwhelming. As a licensed counselor and music therapist with 14 years of experience, I specialize in partnering with adults to discover an empowered response to complex challenges. Through compassionate and skilled care, I support clients in cultivating the wisdom, presence, and skills to live a meaningful and engaged life.

Is anxiety, depression, or another form of distress robbing you of everyday pleasures? Weighty feelings may have become intrusive, occupying too much of your mental space. Reaching out for support may not be easy, but your efforts demonstrate your hope and determination, both critical elements to feeling better. In therapy, you can embark on a journey not only to heal, but also to explore your potential and celebrate your life. Having an effective therapist greatly impacts the therapeutic process and outcome. Finding the right person is important. I might be that match for you.

Hello! I’m Clarice. I’m a New York University School of Social Work graduate, Gestalt Associate for Psychotherapy Clinical Fellow, mother and wife, ambitious entrepreneur, culinary enthusiast, and big fan of solution-focused thinking. My purpose is to guide you on a journey of self-discovery, providing support as you delve into your needs and ambitions. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic methods such as Gestalt and Psychodynamic therapy, Mindfulness, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, and the realm of somatic therapy, I offer a diverse toolbox to enrich your life.

Every person that enters into therapy wants the same thing; to give and receive love more freely and fully. I believe this is not only possible it is your divine birthright. I am here to partner with you on your healing journey - to help guide you back to a state of greater freedom, wholeness and connection. In our work together, we aim to activate your innate resiliency, repair old relational injuries and release oppressive binds of shame-based conditioning. I see our work through a lens of possibilities. Most importantly, I already see you as a whole being.
