Teletherapy for California

I'm here to support your personal growth journey. With nearly 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist and life & executive coach, my approach empowers you to conquer mental health challenges and find your purpose. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, self-doubt, or life's challenges, I'm here to help you embrace change. Get ready to embark on this transformative journey, and together, we'll unlock your full potential!

I help men and couples get unstuck in their relationships. As a man you may be struggling to feel and communicate your emotions, while simultaneously living with a great deal of stress. You may avoid conflict in order to not rock the boat. Self-doubt and an inner critic keep you feeling like you don't know where you're going (personally and professionally) and like you're never enough, leading to burnout. You want to feel confident, connected, have clear purpose, and to relish that thing they call joy. If you're a couple, we will work towards similar feelings of secure functioning. I want you two to feel safe, light, and powerful.

Congratulations on taking the first steps toward a more manageable life! It is not easy to sift through the list of many fantastic and capable clinicians to find the one that feels right for you. My current and past clients shared that they reached out to me because they resonated with my specializations and personable website. I am an empathic active listener who will assist you in discovering and recovering parts of yourself, will challenge your misguided beliefs and dominant discourses, and support you as you process the myriad of emotions that you are carrying.

Are you overwhelmed by negative thoughts, or feeling depressed or anxious? No matter how hard you try, your life is a struggle. Even on a good day, when everything is going well, you still have those feelings: not understanding why you keep doing the things that you do, not recognizing the person you have become. On the outside you seem like you have your life put together, but on the inside, you are overwhelmed or unhappy. You're tired of feeling "stuck" in your life – whether it’s wanting better connections with loved ones, to better yourself, or to heal from the pain of your past.

I specialize in providing therapy for individuals and couples who wish to make positive and lasting changes in their lives and relationships, grow and develop, for themselves and those they love. Human beings thrive when they feel genuinely loved; therefore, the most important thing I can offer you is a safe, compassionate and supportive space that allows each person to feel heard and validated. Do you feel more and more distant from your partner each time you continue to argue about the same old things without any change? In our sessions, you can expect to defuse the conflicts as we begin to understand what drives them.

I help people who have experienced trauma gain feelings of peace and freedom. Feelings such as anxiety, numbness, and physical exhaustion are what I want to help you deal with and transform. Do you feel like a piece of you was hurt or broken, and now you can't connect with your true self? Perhaps these negative reactions you are having seem to continually affect your life. My goal is to help you have a better chance of reaching your whole self. The scars of your past do not need to effect your future. I want to help you repair and heal that piece of you that was hurt from your trauma.

Too often, we feel we are surviving rather than thriving. Do you feel stuck in grief or loss, or that your anxiety is running the show? Are your relationships painful or not satisfying?Also-Parenting is hard! Maybe you're a new parent and it isn't what you expected, or even hoped for. Nobody tells you about the postpartum experience -that internal voice in your head that is constantly critiquing the new role of motherhood you're taking on, mourning the version of yourself you once were. Not to mention the pain that comes with a birth plan gone wrong. If you're mothering without your own mother, that also comes with real challenges.

Life is often complex and confusing, and the pain of trauma is intense. Trauma can be one event that scares you and makes you feel helpless, or a chain of them that teach your body that the world is not to be trusted. Anxiety is a daily reality and moving through life is like moving through a room full of carnival mirrors and moving mazes. Worry for the future keeps us awake at night. The past intrudes in our present, drives our behavior in ways we cannot explain, and leaves us questioning our own motivation and even our sanity. Thoughts can become so loud in our heads that rest is not possible.

Free yourself from what binds you. Resolve anxiety, past trauma, work or relationship stress. Raise your financial set point. A bit about my approach... 1) Mindfulness and Neuroscience. If you are caught in a negative story, I offer practices that engage the mind and body such as mindfulness, EMDR, Brainspotting and EFT. When we are stressed, we don’t think as clearly and can fall into habits of negative thoughts and emotions. Those habits leave a neurological imprint in the body. Changing your mind is only half of the solution. You have to retrain your nervous system as well and mind/body practices speed that process along.

Do you feel overwhelmed and hopeless? Do you want to acquire skills and gain insights that will move you forward to a healthier and brighter future? In a compassionate and supportive environment, I will assist you in evaluating core beliefs, feelings, and behavior. Together we will develop effective and efficient solutions to problems you are facing. I work with my clients to alleviate their symptoms as well as find the root of the issue. Think of this as not only putting on a Band-Aid but also healing the wound! I am a certified clinical trauma therapist as well as a clinical certified PTSD and Complex-PTSD therapist.

Welcome Couples and young adults ready to make the "shifts" in life to find the thing you're missing. First step, awareness; then reflection and finally forward thinking options. It's scary, but let's examine what is and tackle the fear; THIS is where the biggest growth begins! Neuroplasticity is the tool; you have it. I work with trauma, anxiety, bipolar, depression, grief, sexual abuse/rape, addiction, nonstop thoughts, low self esteem and nightmares. Is peace worth seeking? Let's get after it CA and Texas!

You are meant to live a meaningful, passionate, and humorous life. And a portion of human suffering stems from circumstances beyond our control. I want you to know that your sadness, grief, anxiety, anger, or relationship issues are welcome here. I care about your emotional health, and I see you. The first step in establishing a healthier way of thinking and increasing an emotional balance is by having someone to talk to. I provide compassionate, non-intrusive methods and inspirational counseling that produces freedom of past and present challenges that may alleviate symptoms or reduce psychological and emotional suffering.

Anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, lasting effects of past trauma, and other sources of upset can be stressful and challenging to handle. Choosing therapy can be an important step in support of relief, healing, and reaching goals. In therapy, problems and challenges can be re-framed as opportunities for improved self-care, reflection, positive action, learning and growth. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, the Gottman Method for Couples, Mindfulness Techniques, current research on habit formation, as well as many other relevant and helpful tools to assist you in reaching your goals.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. Do you have annoying thoughts or behaviors that feel out of control? Current or past events in your life could be affecting your well-being. You could be experiencing a crisis, having difficulty with family, a partner, or friend. If you're feeling sad, anxious, or not like yourself, it's time to reach out. You might need someone that can listen and guide you through your stress. I will teach you tools to sort through your thoughts, feelings, and find a healthy relationship with yourself. I will work with you to heal, cope, and potentially laugh through tough times.

Navigating this thing called Life is truly a trip! My mission is to support you to have more effective communication and coping skills, develop an uncompromising and joyful sense of self, develop stronger life skills, increased healthy coping with life transitions and heal traumas so that you can be the person you need to be.

Feeling confused? Having difficulty making decisions? Do you feel stuck in your life and not sure what direction to go in? Are you feeling blocked by old traumatic experiences? Are you finding it difficult to break free from unhealthy addictive patterns? Are you frustrated with your relationships? When we live with constant stress and have not healed from childhood or adult trauma, the stress hormone cortisol is released and continually bathes our nervous system with the needed energy for “fight or flight”. We find ourselves often “triggered” by memories and overwhelming feelings.
