Current appointment availability for Teens, Adults, & EMDR; convenient weekday day and evening appointment times (as of 08/03/2026, no wait list). I’m an experienced, licensed psychotherapist whose been in full-time private practice for 18 years. Are you living a contented life? or Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or “in your head” a lot, ruminating about your relationships? work? the future? Have you experienced trauma? Parents: Are you worried about your teenager? Do they seem anxious, depressed, or overly stressed? I'm happy to work with your teen, and support you as a parent. I’d like to help.
In addition to talk therapy, I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), which is a research based treatment for trauma. EMDR sessions can really help move through concerns including abuse, traumatic grief, car accidents, etc. Both teens & adults have benefited from EMDR treatment in seeing faster, longer lasting therapeutic results.
It's wonderful that you're taking that important first step to get some support. I have weekday daytime & evening hours, with offices in Sacramento and in El Dorado Hills, or telehealth. Find out more on my website (link is on this page), or contact me today so we can talk further about whether therapy with me is a good fit for you or your family member.
