In Person Therapists in Fairview Park, Oakland, CA
Psychotherapy is one of many ways to improve the quality of your life and your relationships with others. While emotional wounds from the past are often the source of challenging symptoms, our sessions focus on the present as well as the past. I place great value on a solid therapeutic relationship and through this relationship, insights will surface and positive changes can occur. My style is collaborative, interactive, and supportive. I work with an open caring heart and humbly bring my authentic self to our sessions. I welcome individuals and couples of all ages and from all walks of life.

Our focus will be on integrating what has been in order to develop into what can be.

As a therapist with a focus on developmental trauma and working with queer and trans adults and teens, I believe that early life experiences and ongoing structural contexts immensely inform our relationship to ourselves and each other. I hold this framework with my background in somatic psychotherapy, which considers the ways our bodies and nervous systems relate to our emotions and experiences. There is no one way to relate to the past, embody our feelings, or find healing. In therapy, we find a way for you together. My role is to hold consistent curiosity, rigor, and care throughout the process of your own self-discovery.

My first experience with a therapist was in college. I was a first-generation college student, immigrant from Fiji, and grew up in a small town. Transitioning to adult life and assimilating to a new culture was painfully difficult. My therapist- such a kind soul- created a safe, supportive and nurturing environment that led me on a journey of self-discovery, acceptance and gratitude. I attempt to create a similar environment in my practice using strength-based, client centered and solution focused strategies. While I use a wide range of evidenced based treatment modalities, the therapeutic alliance is the most important to me.

Feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious? These are really tough times we’re living in. There’s the impending climate crisis, conflict abroad, and an increasingly polarizing political climate. Mass shootings may make you fear going to the grocery school or sending your kids to school. And even before the pandemic, there were reasons to be alert and anxious - whether microgressions at work, being told “you’re too ”- fill in the blank, or trying to figure out who you are and how to meet the expectations you and others hold for you. Life can be overwhelming; seeking help shouldn’t be.

These past years have been a struggle for all of us. Many of the issues we faced before the Pandemic have been intensified. Perhaps the challenges of these times have resulted in the development of inner resources you didn't know you had. Perhaps you, like most others, have experienced more loneliness and isolation. Reaching out for help takes courage. Perhaps therapy, even for a limited time, could help you develop inner and outer resources to stabilize and enrich your experience of your life as it is right now. Call me for a free 15 minute consultation to see if I might be a good match for your needs.
