Therapists in Campbell, CA

Congratulations on taking the first step towards feeling better. Picking a therapist can be daunting experiencing, but you don't have to go it alone. I love working with people in order to make their lives more fulfilling. I get energy from those who are courageous enough to share their genuine self in the therapy space and anyone who strives towards a healthier life.

Grief can feel isolating, even though you may be surrounded with people who wish you well. When grieving a loss, it may be difficult to talk with friends or family members about your experience. I invite you to share your emotions and will provide a space for you to find your bearings as you begin your healing journey. To support you I bring an open heart and work with expressive arts, nature therapy, process therapy and mindfulness. Moving beyond words through breath, art and nature allows us to mourn our losses and begin to heal.

Life is constantly presenting us with change. Just when we might feel like we know what the day will bring, there might be something around the corner that takes us by surprise; maybe even something that has been there that we didn't even notice before!
