Living life on life's terms can be challenging. If you are overwhelmed by stress, find yourself repeating dysfunctional patterns in your personal life, reliving past hurts or experiencing difficulty navigating life transitions, therapy can provide relief. Relationship problems, anxiety, depression, and physical ailments are all common symptoms signaling that it may be time to address possible underlying issues which can cause emotional and mental pain. The experience of psychotherapy should be illuminating, validating and empowering. Choosing the right therapist is key.

I invite individuals,couples, families into my practice. One of my main goals for all of my clients is to create and foster an atmosphere of support and safety. A place where they can begin to explore their conflicts and struggles, where they can initiate the search for healthy and positive solutions for emotional healing. I believe that one of the most important goals in life is to understand how to build strong healthy positive relationships. For many people just a few positive changes in this area can help them establish healthier and stronger bonds with those close to them.

If you're looking for a therapist, I offer a complementary phone consult. If I don't think I can help, I can send you in the right direction. You may have concerns about your relationships, your career direction, present and future goals. You may be noticing repeating patterns that aren’t serving you and realize those patterns are hard to change. The patterns we repeat may come from past relationships and past traumas. I think I can help you gain some freedom from the past. Give me a call and we can see if we're a good match.

I am a trauma-informed licensed psychologist who has trained in cognitive-behavioral, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and relational psychodynamic approaches. As an integrative therapist, I attempt to tailor treatment to each individual's needs using relevant interventions and theories. In working interpersonally and collaboratively, we may explore one's individual history, identities/roles, family and cultural dynamics, strengths, values, and goals. Through individual and couples therapy, I enjoy working with adults who identify feeling stuck, lost, alone, misunderstood, frustrated, anxious, disconnected, indifferent, and depressed.

I have discovered that most of us are looking for meaningful connection and someone to help us w/ our blind spots.Change is challenging. The biggest step you can take towards change is to find the support you need to heal and move forward. For many, coming to therapy is a leap of faith & the idea can be scary. It's tempting to avoid dealing w/ deep issues, to run from the pain, to stay busy, or say I'll get to it later. The clients who fully commit 2 changing their lives experience the greatest rewards. They develop the courage to do the inner work needed to create a happy, fulfilled life. I am dedicated to helping my clients become

When we suffer from feelings related to grief or loss, from unsatisfying relationships in the past or present, or from wishing to have more joy in our lives--therapy can be a powerful step toward healing and relief. Having a safe place and a compassionate person with whom to share our grief, our critical or frightening thoughts, and our longings can help enormously. I work in a relational, supportive, and collaborative way to help people move from anxiety, trauma, depression and problems with relationships to a place of increased trust, safety, and satisfaction.

When we live a life of reflection, we open ourselves to the rich depths of life's possibilities. We move away from the needless suffering of unresolved pain. I help my clients examine the intricacies of their minds and relationships in a warm, supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I help them make sense of their lives and their histories to understand how they impact their current challenges. Together we build a refuge where strengths are discovered and life becomes more joyful. My training is psychodynamic/psychoanalytic, however, my style always depends on the needs of my clients and the relationship we create.

We all live in a world of stories...The meaning we attach to these stories become a template of how we feel about ourselves. The emotional outcome of this thinking can be depression, anxiety and at other times, happiness. What is the meaning of these stories? I believe facts bring us to knowledge, but stories lead us to wisdom. Therapy is a creative and supportive process of getting to know your true self, of re-authoring the old story and writing a new one. Discover who you are... apart from the problem, and find an unexpected path to build inner strength and resources.

Available immediately. I work with people confronting the consequences of sexual addiction and compulsion. If you’re dealing with the shame of your own sexual behavior or suffering from the painful discovery of an addicted partner’s infidelity (again?), you have suffered enough. Betrayal trauma is all consuming. By booking a consultation with me to honestly confront the problem, you begin the process of restoring your sanity and sexual integrity. You’ll get empathy, understanding and safety to uncover feelings, secrets, lies and patterns that no longer serve you. Making informed decisions about your future begins here.

I am culturally competent and sensitive to your cultural/religious lived experience and self-identity. I pride myself in serving a diverse clientele and have extensive experience working closely with the Latino community.

I love supporting and helping clients face their traumas, improve their relationships and boundaries, and providing a safe space to be free.

Hi, I am a Narrative Therapy and AEDP trained psychotherapist. What that means is that I believe that each of us wants to find fulfillment, internal peace, and connection, but sometimes problems get in the way. In the face of life's challenges, it can be all too easy to define ourselves by what pains us and to gauge our self-worth by our problems. However, I work from the premise that you are not the problem, the problem is the problem. By changing our relationship to our problems we can gain control of and achieve peace with our emotional selves.

Does it feel like your relationship is stuck in Groundhog Day? You have the same arguments over and over, while nothing ever changes. You love your partner, but some days you wonder if you really like your partner. If only you could get your partner to understand why you’re upset. Then maybe things would be different. These cycles start out as frustrating, but over time, they erode connection, trust, and a sense of emotional safety. You really want things to be different, better. You’re committed to your relationship, but you just don’t know where to start.

To the outside world you have it all together. You get up each morning, you function and manage to get through your day. But behind the exterior, you're not ok. Perhaps it's the what ifs or the constant thoughts that won't shut off. If only you could turn off the worry, you will be able to breathe. Maybe you're struggling when it comes to relationships (dating, a significant other, spouse, parenting, family, friends). You feel stuck in the same patterns. Sometimes it feels like the same story, different day, different relationship. If only you could figure it out, you will be at peace. Or maybe you just need someone to talk to.
