Therapists in Sacramento County, CA

In-person therapy is where it’s at! Have you tried in-person therapy? If yes, then you know the power it can have to help. If no, then I urge you to reach out and schedule - with me or another therapist with an office. Let isolation be over. Being private with things is good, as far as it goes but doesn’t do much to move us out of endless loops or confusing despair. I have no agenda for you but to be well. What can I do to help?

My guiding principle is to facilitate clients in attaining psychological well-being through personalized intervention strategies. This involves working closely with a select number of clients and providing treatment modalities that are adaptable to their demanding schedules. I advocate for clients to utilize their life experiences and individual strengths as tools for introspection, enabling them to address their challenges more effectively. Through this process, clients acquire novel skills and alternative perspectives, empowering them to overcome obstacles in their lives.

My goal is to help patients increase self-awareness, increase coping skills to manage symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. Most importantly, I provide a safe and welcoming therapeutic environment in which patients can explore their symptoms, feelings, and life difficulties. By working together through the therapeutic process, I guide patients into a path of self-discovery and empowerment to develop into healthy and whole individuals. I believe that experiencing hardships can be seen as an invitation to learn more about ourselves and evolve in our life journey to reach our highest potential.

I want to work with clients who are ready and willing to work hard. Clients that understand that challenges may arise, and the process may be uncomfortable at times. In order to create meaningful progress, they are willing to contribute to the development of the therapeutic relationship. The goal is to improve self-esteem, process, and heal from the trauma, and apply healthy coping skills.

Reclaiming your life, using your voice, working through trauma, believing in yourself, finding joy, and searching for a sense of wellbeing can be a lifelong process. You have made that first and most courageous step to reach out for support. Remember that all journeys have obstacles and you are not alone. I believe in change and that every individual has a level of resiliency. Finding a therapist that fits your needs can be challenging but you have just taken the first step in regaining your happiness. You are a strong human and it is typical to have challenges and feel overwhelmed. I look forward to meeting you!

Throughout our life experiences we sometimes become clouded by the obstacles that life throws at us, which may cause for our inner voice, your true self, to get pushed down in the process. This ultimately can lead to making decisions that we’re not happy with. My goal is to assist you with guiding out that inner voice into the open and utilizing it to work together to tackle present challenges, while providing an accepting and safe environment for you to be yourself. I believe you have an array of strengths, abilities and skills that can be utilized to assist with the challenges at hand.
