Therapists in Sacramento, CA

I work with individuals, couples, families, and children. I believe when relationships are torn apart due to unresolved issues, severe life stressors and negative behaviors affect life functioning.The last alternative anyone wants to seek is guidance. Allow me to help develop reachable and attainable goals and outcomes.

I believe there are always options. We may not see them or if we do see them, we may not know how or be able to get past some factors which may limit us making different choices. My treatment approach is to work with you on how to effectively approach those choices and identify the outcomes you desire for your life. I see my role as believing in you and supporting you as we work together to remove past and present barriers so your life can be more of what you want it to be.

Life is busy and complex. The constant pressure that we feel to meet our professional obligations, navigate personal relationships and occupy roles are overwhelming. We set an unsustainable pace that inevitably leaves us anxious, socially disconnected and emotionally depleted. The demands of being a professional, person of color, parent or person navigating a change can become unmanageable.

Nothing is more difficult than relationships. And nothing means more to you. All of us are hard-wired to be in relationship, to care for and be cared for by others. But what do you do when differences lead to never-ending battles because you never get close to the real issues? Or when withdrawal leads to resentments that are never addressed at all. I would like to help you remember your strengths that brought you together in the first place, feel relief as you share what is important to you, and appreciate each other's differences, which may really be a strength.

Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. You don’t like yourself and never feel good enough at work or around certain people. Maybe you just can’t quite put your finger on exactly what is wrong, you just know you don’t want to hurt anymore.

I help individuals realize their potential, whether it is in a spiritual direction or in motivation to perform better in life. The underlying principles are the same.

I help people look at the workings of the mind, and to improve through specific exercises and homework. The ideal client is one who recognizes that they feel stuck and is willing to take the necessary actions to begin moving forward.
