Therapists in Carlsbad, CA

Hello, I proud of you for looking into therapy! A little about me, I specialize in couples/family, anxiety disorders, and trauma therapy. Having my own struggles with anxiety helps me to understand how mental health can take a toll on one's life, which sparked my interested in anxiety and trauma care. I think our early experiences, genetic makeup, and outside environment all play a role in our mental health and relationships. I chose this career field because I have a passion for helping people build healthier relationships with others and their own thoughts and feelings.

I am a Carlsbad based Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about empowering others to find their inner peace and self-worth. I describe my therapeutic style as warm, grounding, compassionate. My focus is on healing, processing, and building resilience with the intention to help you feel more confident about your future. My goal is to support you through symptoms of anxiety, depression, grief / loss, codependency, and post-traumatic stress. I work with preteens, teens, and adults who are committed to exploring their inner world to learn more about themselves and how they show up in their relationships with others.

I may be a good fit for you if you find yourself experiencing moments of intense emotion, such as frustration, anger, rage, sadness, emptiness, and overwhelm. You may be misappropriating your intense feelings at your friends/family/significant others and may be at risk of losing important relationships. You might also be struggling to function at work, calling off sick more than you would like. You might also be trying to soothe yourself in ways that ultimately don't fix the problem and might also make you feel worse, guilty, or ashamed.

Areas of specialty include trauma, anxiety, stress management, self-esteem, grief, relationship issues, communication difficulties and life transitions. When working with clients my goal is to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and validating while we explore any negative beliefs or experiences that may be holding you back from living your most authentic and fulfilling life. My role is to help guide and support you through your challenges while also empowering you to connect to your inner strength and resiliency.

There is always hope! Our painful life experiences have a way of making us feeling exhausted and unworthy. We can lose sight of our dreams and our authentic path. Trying something new and opening up seems like the last thing we may want to do, but maybe it is exactly what we need. Spending quality caring time on ourselves with the support of a caring therapist can create healing and movement in our lives. We all need validating safe spaces to remind ourselves how valuable we are. We can't truly give to our loved ones unless we are giving to ourselves.

In times of transitions like getting married, having kids, getting divorced or changing careers, the wounds you thought were dealt with, can unexpectedly resurface. Past trauma (large or small) may have always been in the background unknowingly affecting every decision you ever made. Unresolved trauma can manifest as issues around self-esteem, depression, anxiety, or a pattern of choosing the wrong partner, or a job that makes you feel stuck. Maybe it manifests in the feeling of longing for something you don't have, even when you feel like you have it all.
