Therapists in California

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California. I have a doctorate degree (Ed.d) in Traumatology. I work with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, anger, or a variety of emotions due to life's challenges and circumstances. My goal is to provide clients with all of the tools necessary to navigate through future situations and to help build resilency.

Grief is a deeply personal experience, with no set timeline or predictable path. It can arise after the loss of a loved one, an animal companion, a relationship, or even a shift in identity due to illness or life transitions. Left unaddressed, grief can impact your emotional well-being, relationships, and day-to-day functioning. As a therapist, I offer two areas of specialized support. The first is grief counseling—providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can process your loss and find meaning in your healing. The second focuses on helping individuals navigate symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorder, often brought on by significant life changes or chronic stress. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices and tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're overwhelmed by sadness, struggling with motivation, or feeling disconnected from others, therapy can help you regain clarity and emotional balance. I intentionally maintain a small caseload to provide personalized, attentive care. My goal is to offer a safe, grounded environment where you feel supported and empowered to move forward at your own pace.

There are many different reasons someone may seek out support from a therapist. Some reasons may be challenges in your life both personally or professionally, daily tasks can feel overwhelming, or maybe you just don’t feel like “you” lately. Everyone’s struggles or stressors are personal and unique. Therapy can be a wonderful way to talk about your distress safely and without judgement. When clients and I work together, we set achievable goals that focus on hopes and desires for wellness and balance. This includes relief from symptoms that have caused burden on your mental wellness. My experience in the behavioral health and wellness field has shaped my understanding and approach to supporting clients with a person-centered and solution-focused method for therapy. I specialize in supporting adults and young adults that are experiencing depression, anxiety, or healing from trauma. I also have experience in supporting women navigate maternity and postpartum mental health issues. Let me support you in navigating difficult or challenging moments in your life. Whether it is a tough relationship, stress or burnout at work, or you have experienced trauma and need someone to talk to. Remember that you are not alone, and asking for help is one of the strongest actions you can take.

If you’re reading this, it means you exist. Based on your religion, culture, or general belief, you may have a meaning for existence. However, no matter your meaning, one thing is clear - existence can be very challenging for us. There are many ways to cope with the challenges of existing, resulting in different experiences. Therapy is just one way to manage the challenges. Therapy There are many ways to approach therapy. One way I like to approach it is to view an individual as a system. In therapy then, we check the system to see what’s working well, what’s neutral, and what’s not going well. In doing this, the goal is to get an individual to admit the reality of things, not what the individual wants or hopes but the present true reality. It's important to identify and understand the reality of an individual because often there are significant fears and or unstable belief in the individual’s ability to manage challenges and get desired results. Lack of control – one of the foundational fears for us is the lack of control we seem to have over ourselves and others. How does one cope with seemingly so little control - from how one comes into existence to how will my friend react if I said no. Whether you’re a veteran in going to therapy or trying it for the first time, we will work as a team to see if we can get you to be how you want to be given the infinite things that are not in your control.
