Therapists in California

I'm Sheldon like the TV show! (Big Bang Theory). I help analytical high-achieving adults who feel stuck in patterns of anxiety and depression untangle their inner world and reconnect with their deeper self-using insight-driven therapy, dream exploration, and a creative lens that helps them uncover what's been buried beneath the surface. Do you often say, "I'm successful on the outside but exhausted and anxious inside," "overthinking everything, but still feeling stuck," or being in a "constant sense of restlessness or dissatisfaction," or being a person who "struggles to access or name emotions clearly." I help clients have greater awareness and emotional clarity and begin to feel grounded, self-trusting and more internally connected. I hope to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms through deeper insight and ability to recognize and break unconscious patterns. I help clients discover meaning through creative exploration, and dream work. I want clients to increase their confidence in navigating relationships and decisions and moving from analysis paralysis to self-acceptance and expression. My areas of expertise are in Depression, Anxiety, Chronic Mental Illness, Risk Assessment, Trauma, PTSD and Substance Abuse Disorders.

Hi! If you’re here, you might be wondering whether therapy, and whether I could be a good fit. I work with individuals and couples who feel weighed down by past experiences and notice certain patterns keep repeating—often in relationships or in how they relate to themselves. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, and wondering why change feels so hard even when they’re trying their best. In therapy, I offer a warm, compassionate space where you don’t have to perform, have everything figured out, or move at any particular pace. We take things one step at a time, gently exploring what’s beneath the surface while staying grounded in what feels most supportive for you. I believe healing begins when you feel safe enough to be yourself and supported enough to not carry everything alone.
