Life is hard! Whether it’s dealing with everyday hassles (e.g. work or family/relationship-related stress) or big life events (e.g. death of a loved one, a new diagnosis, trauma, job loss, divorce, marriage, retirement, or welcoming home a new baby), life can really take a toll on us all! If you feel like you’re worried about everything (all the time!) or if you feel like you’ve somehow lost your sense of confidence or joy along the way, I am here to help! As a licensed psychologist, I help young adults (18+), adults, and seniors (65+) just like you cope with anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, health stress, and more.
I will work with you to tailor proven techniques (the ones science has shown to make a difference) to help you reach your unique goals and restore a sense of balance in your life. Together, we can discover how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected, and develop personalized, practical techniques to help you cope with life’s biggest stressors.
It can be incredibly hard to reach out and ask for help, especially when we're feeling overwhelmed and confused about what to do or where to go next. That's why I offer a free initial consultation to California residents interested in learning more about how therapy can work for them. Call, email, or visit our website to book your initial consultation today!
