Sexual Abuse Therapists in 93701

Every person has their own reasons for seeking therapy. Some choose it during a period of major life transitions or hardships, while others may seek out therapy in order to deepen their understanding of themselves. By using a psychodynamic and object relations model I am able to consider the whole person rather than pure symptom reduction. I believe there is both conscious and unconscious meaning to symptoms.

You may have been feeling as though you've been given a life without an instruction manual. Relationships might be more challenging for you than not, and in comparing yourself to other people, you feel like something is missing, that might explain how you end up with the "same person" over and over - the disrespectful, distant, controlling or dismissive person that the previously-ideal partner became, after a while. This is a pattern that can occur with Complex PTSD, a common situation with many of the clients I speak to, which can be resolved with psychoeducation and trauma therapy.

Do you struggle with self-doubt and low self-esteem? Do you beat yourself up for even the smallest things? Are you struggling with overthinking and feeling sad, overwhelmed, irritable and/or exhausted? If you are looking for a non-judgmental, safe therapist, let's work together.

Therapy can be scary and costly . It isn’t either in my practice. We all experience change, transition, conflict, work and relational stressors. Many experience trauma and stressors that begin to impact daily functioning. Therapy is a safe place to discuss and explore the current stressors you are facing. I’ll help make this possible in an empathetic and AFFORDABLE environment that fosters growth, and healing. You do the talking and I do the listening, caring and provide the tools to assist you in navigating life’s circumstances. Together we can work to address the personal and or relational stressors impacting your life!

Having trouble navigating through life? Hitting roadblocks within different relationships? Do you have doubt about your identity and worth? I am available to provide a safe, open space in which we can work collaboratively to support you in your journey of healing.
