Teletherapy for Santa Barbara, CA

Many clients are drawn to my unique style of work because talk therapy isn’t delving deep enough into the chronic pain they hold, the painful emotions they feel, or the spinning thoughts that rule their life. Many crave a nourishment from their lives they’ve lost touch with in the busy-ness, trapped in people pleasing, poor boundaries and unresolved old pain. Many remember they once felt vibrant and connected to themselves, and perhaps something greater. Are you ready to get back?

Your body has the wisdom and knowledge to help guide you through this difficult season of life, and my work is dedicated to helping you learn how to listen. My practice is currently focused on providing a unique body-based (somatic) approach for adults and couples/partnerships who are healing from trauma and co-dependency. The way that you feel in your mind, body, and spirit is a reflection on for how you walk through the world, and my approach takes this into account to provide a safe, gentle, and direct space for you and your partner(s) to explore how you show up in your life and relationships.

I work with individuals and couples in the areas of sex, relationships, sex addiction, and life transitions (divorce, empty nest, retirement). Relationships with others (partner, boss, siblings, friends, clients) are a central source of meaning and sometimes difficulty for us. I can work with you around relationship issues, including commitment, communication, sexuality, infidelity and healthy conflict. I'm also offering groups for women wanting to unlock their sexual satisfaction.

My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in the belief that each individual possesses the strength to overcome their challenges. In my practice, I blend cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, solution-focused strategies, and emotionally focused therapy (EFT) to support those dealing with sex addiction and anger management in a non-judgmental environment. Emphasizing empathy, integrity, and professionalism, I offer guidance and hope. I'm committed to navigating personal challenges and fostering resilience and well-being with you. Together, we'll pursue healing, self-discovery, and a fulfilling life, ensuring you feel supported.

Compassionate & chill therapy for the modern young woman navigating life's twists & turns. Finding a therapist you vibe with is essential. I’m an active participant in your journey- offering insight, feedback, & direction. I’ll ask the hard questions but we’ll move at your pace. Therapy isn’t all serious all the time- humor heals, too! Together, we’ll map out your life and start to connect some dots. I hold space as you get to know yourself better (“why am I the way I am?”), help you process (“I’m aware of how aware I am of my stuff- now what!?”), and empower you to embrace your whole self.

Drifting, no land in sight, you need a compass to guide you home to yourself. The good news, I’ve navigated this journey and understand it well. And I am here for you and to support you. Trust your intuition and reach out.
