Therapists in Monrovia, CA

Therapy isn’t just for those in crisis, and things do not have to be bad to get better. As a sex & relationship therapist, I know that we all contain multitudes! You are allowed to be grateful for your life AND want more! More Connection. Pleasure. Joy. Your desires are valid and undeserving of shame or judgment. I believe that our bodies have wisdom beyond what our minds may acknowledge, and unlocking the ways our deepest selves have learned to store/apply our legacies of trauma, indoctrination, and shame can open the gates to experiencing pleasure and wholeness in the present. I am unreservedly kink, queer, SW & BIPOC affirming.

My passion is working with BIPOC, LGBTQIA2s+, Neuro-Divergent, 2E, Hsp's & Couples. I work with people who are anxious, overthinkers,empaths, depressed, neuro diverse, adoptees, and creatives. I take a holistic approach. I help people who struggle with setting boundaries, emotional regulation. relationship conflicts, and putting their needs first. I work with people going through life transitions, & are tired of being stuck and misunderstood by themselves and others. I help people understand how their behavior is connected to their thoughts, feelings, past experiences, mood & actions.

I work with all clients who are willing and able to work on their relationships, whether that be a relationship with themselves or with a family member or significant other. I am most comfortable treating couples who are struggling with communication, conflict resolution, intimacy, and trust.

I believe that everyone has the potential for healthy relationships, and I am committed to helping my clients reach their full potential.

To put it simply, I love people. And what inspires me as a therapist is the opportunity to serve others through authentic connection and collaborative insight into clients' thoughts, feelings and actions. While drawn to cognitive behavioral and Mindfulness interventions, for me, providing a safe, warm and open relational component is key. Whether working with couples, individual adults or adolescents, and issues ranging from anxiety, depression, trauma, or sexuality, intimacy and interpersonal functioning, it is a privilege to hold your confidence and assist you in your journey towards integration and wellness.
