Therapists in San Francisco County, CA

If you are feeling stuck, isolated and overwhelmed, talking to a professional can help view the situation from a new perspective and find solutions. I am here to help you answer such questions as: “Why did this happen to me?”, “Why does it keep happening to me?” and more importantly, “How do I make my life better?” Getting to know yourself is the hardest yet the most rewarding journey in life. And I believe it is the key to changing it. I will gently help you process your experiences so that you feel lighter, have more self-acceptance, and feel better about who you are and your future.

Psychotherapy can dramatically change the way we communicate with those around us and interact with the world as a whole. We often get stuck in thoughts and behaviors that hinder our ability to live life in alignment with how we see ourselves. Effective therapy provides a warm, non-judgemental, and confidential environment in which to explore maladaptive patterns getting in the way of these goals. It is an investment in yourself, to get out of your own way and live the best life you can.
