Sexual Abuse Therapists in North City, San Diego, CA

There is much in our world that pulls us away from ourselves..from truly feeling grounded. Coming home is meant to describe the process of connection and healing that can happen when we set aside all the daily distractions and step back into ourselves. Once home, within ourselves, we can finally begin to connect, understand, and heal. This allows space for vulnerability, growth, and love. Whether you are having difficulties moving beyond shame and trauma, having difficulties enjoying sexual activity or want to better connect with your partner(s), I am here to listen, educate and guide at your pace to a whole new way of living.
