Therapists in San Diego, CA

I love to work with people in relationships of all types, structures, and styles. Everyone feels stuck or unhappy in relationships sometimes. My goal is to help you get unstuck from unhelpful patterns in your life and your relationships. To do this, I can help you better understand yourself and your loved ones, increase empathy and connection, and support you in changing behaviors that are not working for you.

I identify as Indian-American and growing up in a bicultural environment has provided me with an open-mindedness and respect for the diversity of human experience. As such, it is important to me that I bring an intersectional, anti-racist, and LGBTQIA+ affirming lens to therapy. I believe that our early significant relationships in addition to threatening situations can create parts of us that while well intentioned, can contribute to challenges we experience in the present. If you are looking for a space to understand yourself better in an effort to find alternate, more effective ways of coping, please reach out.

Though I've never met you, I imagine how uncertain it feels to have so much change happening at once and your relationships under stress.

Experiencing anxiety, depression, and difficulty controlling your thoughts and emotions? Are relationship difficulties interfering with your ability to experience a fulfilling and satisfying life?

Let’s collaborate so we can work together to support your ongoing healing and growth. I work towards engaging from a compassionate, anti-oppressive, and trauma informed positionality. One of my focuses is on collaborating to better understand yourself as an integrated mind/body/spirit/social/relational being (soma) and reprocessing what your soma holds. Some of the ways in which we can do this is through building upon the stories that empower you and learning skills for personal and/or interpersonal fulfillment. We all deserve to live our lives liberated from the reactive survival responses of trauma.

Are you struggling with anxiety, grief, depression, or just feel disconnected in your life? Do you feel sometimes like you are "too much" or misunderstood in your relationships? If you have experienced trauma, traditional talk therapy is often not enough for creating lasting change. A holistic, integrated approach allows you to tap into the body's innate wisdom. I assist individuals and couples in the areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship problems, sexuality, boundaries, self-esteem, spiritual and existential questions.

Hi! I am Dr. Tobi and I typically work with young adults presenting with a variety of concerns including anxiety, family or relationship issues, relational trauma (including narcissistic abuse), codependency, self-esteem issues, and depression. My approach to therapy involves a holistic and collaborative process; we will work together on your personal journey of growth, change, and empowerment. I integrate multiple therapeutic modalities to best fit your individual needs, including CBT, DBT, internal family systems, psychodynamic, attachment, and mindfulness-based approaches.

My goal is to build strong therapeutic relationships with my clients, grounded in empathy and trust. I am committed to learning each of my client's unique and diverse life stories. My clients rely on me to help "unpack" not only the issues that brought them to therapy, but to better understand how their upbringing, family, and life experiences impact their mental wellbeing. I work with adults, couples, families and adolescents (age 16 and up), who are experiencing depression, anxiety and stress, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, maternal mental health, and relationship conflicts.

My priority first and foremost is to build trust in the client-therapist relationship. It can be challenging to share painful thoughts and emotions with others, so I believe it is a privilege whenever I am allowed into someone’s internal world. I take a holistic and collaborative approach to therapy, working with clients to address life transitions, family or relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, and self-harm. Having worked extensively with ethnically- and gender- diverse populations, I especially enjoy helping young adults explore their sense of identity and find meaningful roles in their communities.
