Waitlist for new clients
I use an integrative approach of evidenced based practices such as CBT, Trauma focus CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems, and mindfulness.
Life stressors can feel overwhelming, impacting various aspects of our lives, from relationships to our own wellbeing, sometimes turning into symptoms of depression, anxiety, and unhealthy coping. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over eighteen years of experience, offering individual and family therapy to adolescents, transitioning youth into adulthood, and adults via telehealth in California and Hawaii. During times of transition, and emotional distress, psychotherapy can help with symptom reduction, and help improve our daily functioning and relationships.

I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and love working with individuals and couples. I believe that everyone desires connection and wants to be heard. I also believe actually receiving it and having a desire are vastly different. Most of us find the "one," then life happens, careers kick off, kids, and before we know it the connection has been lost. We feel stuck, lost, and like it's impossible to get it back to that feeling. My job is to help you to identify those stuck places and develop new experiences that propel you forward in the relationship and better equip you when similar feelings of disconnection arise.

If you’re feeling depleted, stuck, or unfulfilled, you are not alone. With the demands of showing up as a parent, significant other, friend, and employee, there’s no wonder the challenge it is to show up for yourself. Additionally, I believe that every person possesses the inner wisdom for healing and the power to reclaim agency over their experience. My role as a therapist is to provide an accepting space for this self-discovery, and to support you in learning the tools to cope with life on life’s terms.

Integrative Therapists

What is integrative therapy?

Integrative therapy is a type of therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the individual client. By merging elements of different treatments, an integrative therapist aims to offer a more flexible approach than those who practice just one type of therapy.

How does integrative therapy work?

Integrative therapy approaches a client’s mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic way to discover the sources of their unhealthy behavior patterns or other challenges and considers the approach most likely to lead to improvement. Among the techniques an integrative therapist may practice are cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art or music therapy, psychodynamic therapy, breathwork, family systems therapy, gestalt therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. An integrative therapist regularly evaluates the client’s progress and is prepared to pivot to a different approach if progress stalls.

How long does integrative therapy last?

As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for integrative therapy; people who find they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that spurred them to seek treatment. New patients should understand that it may take some time for a therapist to land on a treatment approach that best meets their needs, but once they do, they should expect sessions to extend for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.

How effective is integrative therapy?

There are hundreds of types of talk therapy, and research shows that while they vary in form, goals, and frequency, many if not all can produce similarly successful outcomes. But a single approach does not always deliver the greatest, or speediest, benefit, and so even therapists primarily trained in one model will use tools, language, techniques, or exercises from others to shape an effective treatment plan.
