We all have times in life where we feel stuck and the way we've always done things isn't working for us anymore. Sometimes those stuck points look like feeling irritated, numb, scared, sad, or not able to turn off our thoughts. I create a supportive space to explore what’s working, and what's not working, in my clients' lives. Sessions feel like a real conversation with clinical info and suggestions peppered in. I believe humor and joy are useful to help shift perspective. My goal is for clients to learn how to live in the present so that they can engage more fully in their lives.
My therapy style is flexible, conversational, and often uses humor. I'm EMDR certified and use elements of cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, dialectical behavioral, and client empowerment therapies. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ folks, people working through life transitions, and clients who have experienced trauma.
Some admin info I know impacts choice of therapist. My client hours are 9am-4pmPST Tues-Fri (last appointment 3pm-4pm). I see telehealth clients from anywhere in CA or FL. For clients in San Diego, I can also see you for in-person sessions Weds and Fri. For Florida clients, I can only see via telehealth. I accept United Healthcare and private pay clients.
