Do you feel overwhelmed by emotions and life stressors? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to show up as your authentic self and be kind to yourself? I help people find their voice, identify their true emotions and learn to use positive coping mechanisms to manage life stressors. I also help high performers manage anxiety and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. We’ll use a person-centered approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body, and spirit.

Hi, I'm so glad you are here. My therapeutic approach centers on creating more opportunities for space and reflection. My hope is that our sessions will feel casual and warm, that you feel met right where you are, and that I provide skills and perspective as you work towards your best self. Becoming a parent can be overwhelming and all consuming. I’ve been there. The first few years of my daughter’s life were a blur. I felt lost and like I was not a good enough parent. I felt like I was losing myself. I knew the parent I wanted to be, but did not know how to get there. That is when I knew something needed to change.

In May 2007, I graduated from California State University with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and shortly after, earned a Master’s of Science degree in Counseling, emphasis on Marriage and Family Therapy. I began my career as a therapist working with juvenile offenders and youth who’d been diagnosed with severe mental health issues. I quickly recognized that many adults who were tasked with raising these troubled youth were struggling with issues that prevented them from being active caretakers. As a result, working with hurting adults became my passion.

Welcome to viewing my profile! I have been in the mental health field for over 15 years. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I received training and focused on the following modes of treatment: attachment theory, play therapy, strength-based, and trauma-informed, among other evidence-based models. Additionally, I have experience working in multidisciplinary settings providing collaborative quality care and psychotherapeutic treatment.

The reality is, life is a journey, and we all need help sometimes. We can get stuck, become overwhelmed, or hopeless with everything that life throws at us.

Feeling overwhelmed by life and searching for meaning? Are you struggling to be fully present in your relationships and other areas of your life because you're living in survival mode? Using a mindfulness approach, I help people shift away from coping mechanisms that prevent them from connecting fully to themselves and their lives. Let's work together to identify what's not working and find the balance you're looking for.

I have extensive experience in working with a diverse population of individuals, including those struggling with substance abuse, dual diagnoses, codependency, trauma, and other mental health issues. I consider myself to be an assertive and direct psychologist who prioritizes affective communication, healthy boundaries, and self-care. My ultimate goal is to help people gain the insight and coping skills necessary to live meaningful lives filled with a positive sense of self and healthy relationships.

Are you struggling with this thing called “life”? Are you feeling more anxious than usual? Maybe you feel more self-conscious about this new role. Perhaps you feel disappointed with a loved one or you have just experienced loss. Typically, we don’t seek services when life is working for us, but whatever your issues may be, you are seeking help because what you have been doing is no longer working. Together, we will work collaboratively to empower you to overcome challenges and lead a more fulfilling life. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to healing and wellness. I look forward to hearing from you!

We all want to be understood, to have a sense of belonging, and to have healthy relationships. And we all deserve to be happy. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe space for you to find ways to overcome challenges with grace. When you feel stuck or overwhelmed, I will remind you that you have the strength and courage to carry on. There can be beauty in the chaos, and I will guide you in finding that sense of harmony and fulfillment you crave.

I was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, and moved to the San Diego area at the age of three. I am fortunate to be fully fluent in English and Spanish. Living in a bicultural home and in a very multicultural environment, I have been privileged to be part of the border culture, a subculture in itself. My own personal and professional experiences have allowed me the opportunity to understand the importance of cultural, socio-economic, gender, and racial-related issues. I can empathize, if not relate to them all. My hope and commitment to my clients, are to guide them through their journey towards self-awareness and wellbeing.

I provide a safe space to build connection and relationship to explore therapeutic goals without judgement. I listen, offer perspective, and support clients in finding solutions to achieve their goals. Transparency, vulnerability, and empowerment are tools used to achieve success.

I can provide a space to process, offer alternate points of view for reflection, and collaboratively find solutions to meet support needs.

Painful experiences can leave us at a crossroads or discouraged about our faith when breakthrough has yet to occur. Have you been feeling “stuck” in negative thoughts? Ruminating thoughts and triggers are common responses to trauma and anxiety. Battling these distressing responses is not only difficult but exhausting. Trying to understand the role faith plays can be confusing. I am passionate about normalizing what you are going through and identifying barriers that are preventing you from living life fully. Everyone responds differently to distressing experiences and therefore have unique needs within the healing process.

I am energetic, fun-loving, and charismatic. As a therapist, you will find me to be open, honest, encouraging, compassionate and supportive. My passion is to help all my clients explore their unique individuality, inspire them to discover their strengths and happily embrace their challenges. As a mother of teenagers, I understand and empathize with the struggles that all parents and children are facing as they try to navigate through these confusing, chaotic, ever-changing years. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, safe environment where individuals, teens, families, and parents can feel comfortable to be themselves.

You may have often heard some people say that therapy is for only those with a mental illness or are "crazy". I'm Mark G. Koch and have been a licensed Marriage Family Therapist since 1996, and I can honestly tell you that those type of statements are a myth. Everyone has a view of how the world works and we use the tools we have to deal with our issues, but occasionally there comes a time when a problem arises that we have no answer to. At this point we become "stuck".

You have found the voice of an online therapist inspired by the swells of the Pacific Ocean! I not only have a personal love of ocean culture but also a special interest in increasing our power by creating meaning and healing through finding balance and connection with ourself, others, and our surroundings. I specialize in trauma-focused interventions. I believe in strategies that inform us and support life transitions, help us understand the mind/body connection, and lend to increased awareness and insight of coping habits that no longer serve us and free us from the burden of of our own suffering.

My aim is to foster a supportive and safe space for you to explore your feelings, thoughts, and challenges. My work will help you recognize the power within you & source( whatever you believe in is totally okay in my world, I respect all) and trust that it all works out the way it should! I have also faced my own life challenges, moved across the country to my dream states, and more, which I believe has taught me to have more compassion and an open mind. Hence, why I always state I am a human first.
