EMDR Therapists in Eagle Rock, CA
I believe in therapeutic conversation; I am not the 'expert' on your life; you are that expert. My expertise lies in facilitating dialogue that looks at the obstacles currently blocking your preferred vision for your current and future self. My ultimate quarry is change: not just the hoped for differences you may want from your partner, your job, your family, but the changes from within that you must incorporate. The old adage really is true: you can only change yourself. Truly effective therapy happens when you are honestly ready to tackle the person in the mirror.

I have over a decade of training and experience providing therapy to children, adolescences and adults. I believe that people have a great deal of resiliancy and strength and that there are times in our lives that we need help to uncover and remember how strong we are. I work with people to uncover their own strengths to help themselves out of any situation that arises in their lives. I have a great deal of experience in treating trauma related disorder such as depression and anxiety.

I know these profiles can be a lot to take in, so before you skip to the next one, or just carry on living your life, can I leave you with this one thing? I wouldn’t claim to know a thing about you, your life, or what you've been through, but my firm belief, backed by science, is that despite what you might have learned or been told; you are not broken. Quite the opposite in fact... Still here? OK, I'll be quick!

Just because you're struggling, does not mean you're failing! Are you a new mom who feels like something is just not quite right? Has starting a family been difficult and/or different than you imagined it would be? Has your new role left you feeling overwhelmed? Do you sometimes regret becoming a parent? Do you just need support while you figure it out? Trust your instincts. Transitioning into motherhood can be a time filled with joy and excitement but also stress, frustration, fear and heartbreak. I enjoy working alongside clients through their unique journeys of trying to conceive, pregnancy, postpartum and whatever comes next.

We understand that it is difficult to find a therapist you can actually connect to - someone who is both effective and human. That is why our therapists strive for this balance, providing authentic and effective therapy. We work collaboratively with people to detail their future hopes and honor the histories that inform their current experiences and relationships. Our goal is to not only effectively reduce symptoms, but also to facilitate the creation of a strong relationship with yourself and your inner world. Therapy can be a transformative experience when it is co-created and tailored to each individual, couple, or family.

Therapy is a space where you can safely process and discuss thoughts, issues, or questions that have been consuming your emotional health and well-being. It is your time and your space. You do not have to be in a crisis to seek therapy. While the therapeutic process can be groundbreaking and beneficial, I want clients to feel safe from harm, discrimination and aggression while acknowledging how systemic inequities play a role on one's mental health. There are many factors and complexities that intersect to make you who you are. You define who you are and how you experience the world.

You are exhausted. You have tried everything and you still don't feel right. No matter what you do you, you cannot reach a state of contentment. You soldier on day by day but feel like things are just get worse and worse. All you want to do is hide under the covers. Maybe you see that society is collapsing around you and think there is nothing you can do about it? Where can a person turn for help? You often wonder, is there a solution out there or will I have to try yet another intervention that doesn't work? Stop blaming yourself, much of this is a normal reaction to abnormal circumstances.

NEW! Grief Group Starting! Reach out as slots are still available! I see clients who are grieving, have anxiety, are seeking couples therapy, or have a teen going through a hard time. No matter what the issue one thing is clear: you want life to get better. You might just need help getting there. My goal is to build upon that belief in a safe, compassionate environment. Whoever you are, whatever your battles, it is amazing what can happen when you feel heard.

Do you struggle with self-esteem, imposter syndrome, or perfectionism that affects your ability to feel successful at work, in relationships, and day-to-day? Do you feel overwhelmed by things that “should” be simpler, or compare yourself to others and feel frustrated when you can’t do things with the same ease? These thoughts or “stories” are running your life and dictating your behavior. But there is a better way to live.

Do you avoid sharing your true feelings and hide who you really are? Do you cope with stress and burnout by checking out, burying your feelings or numbing yourself? Are you isolated, grieving, and disconnected? Are you confused about your purpose in life, who you are, or where you fit in the world? I am passionate about supporting young people to navigate issues of identity and transition, assisting people-pleasers and caretakers to live more authentically, and helping those who identify as highly-sensitive and neurodivergent cope with a world that isn’t designed for them.
