Depression Therapists in Brea, CA

The journey of life can be a challenging one. We are often faced with situations and events that challenge us. Sometimes we feel alone, confused, uncertain, or afraid. We seek comfort and understanding. We want change, but are not sure how or what steps to take. We seek safety, security, and purpose. I will help you navigate through life challenges and help you gently face your deepest struggles.

In a world that has been deeply affected by a global pandemic, many of us find ourselves overwhelmed, anxious and in need of extra support. Cura Counseling exists to provide that support. Whether you are looking for help with interpersonal relationships, tools for managing anxiety and depression, or help growing in deeper insight and awareness of self, we are here to come alongside you in your personal journey toward mental and emotional flourishing.

My experience enables me to offer effective outpatient, individualized, psychological care. I treat a number of mental health disorders, and provide a neutral ground to individuals, families, children, and couples. Parenting is not an easy road to navigate. I am effective in helping parents learn new skills to help them manage behavioral concerns with children and teens; as well as teaching new strategies to children and teens to help improve cohesiveness within the family system. Traumatic events can feel paralyzing. I am passionate in working through trauma to help an individual to find their inner strength, and happiness again.

I have worked in the mental health field for over 7 years. I have worked with young children, teens, adults, and older adults. I have experience treating trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting difficulties, and postpartum depression/anxiety. I utilize a combination of client centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioral therapy. I believe that in order to find the root of your symptoms, you need a safe place to do so. My main goal is to build a strong therapeutic relationship with my patients. Patients will not allow themselves to go to a vulnerable place if they do not feel safe.

Navigating therapy can often feel intimidating and confusing. Taking up space and speaking your truth is challenging, especially when problems and experiences that may be distressing or painful are involved. But this process isn’t one that has to be tackled alone nor are you meant to. My approach is empowering and encouraging, and I strive to provide a warm, safe, and judgment-free space that allows us to collaboratively uncover your inherent strengths and build the life you envision for yourself.

It has been a while since you felt stuck, terrified, hopeless, or worthless. Yet, you have always been smiling to pretend you are okay. Or you are very used to distancing yourself because “nobody cares about me”. Life can be very challenging when you can hardly recognize the person next to you, more importantly, when you can’t even recognize yourself. Whether it has been years over the same issues and difficulties, or there has been a sudden tragic change to your life, believe it! You are already doing the best you can at any given moment!

It is my deep desire for therapy to be a meaningful and transformative experience. I believe this begins with authentic connection, being fully heard, understood and accepted. I seek to create a safe space where individuals can work through the overwhelming struggles of life. If you are confronting depression, anxiety, anger or any of the myriad of difficult emotions we experience, I would like to join you in your journey and provide support that can lead to healing, growth and freedom.
