Behavioral Issues Therapists in San Jose, CA

Does your child struggle with behavior or "big feelings?” Are typical parenting strategies not working and you want guidance? Perhaps your child is anxious, and you feel lost in how to support them. Your child may need social skills building. You want to have boundaries or to be on the same page as your spouse? This is all normal. Parenting doesn’t come with a manual. Children can have difficulty managing their emotions, and developmentally, they do not always have the language to communicate or express their wants and needs. I would love to help you navigate life's challenges, reduce stress and build the family you want.

I'm a licensed psychotherapist with a background specializing in severe behavioral issues and relationship issues. I work with a variety of approaches from CBT, EFT to Psychodynamic approach depending on my patient's needs and what I feel is most effective.

Explore where they may have stemmed from, and how they are currently effecting your life. I believe anyone's goal in therapy would be to heal and ignite awareness to live a more fulfilling life.

We all experience negative emotions to varying degrees in our lives. However, anxiety and depression can become a problem when they get in the way of us being able to manage the important things in our life--our work, our studies, or our relationships. If you or your child is struggling with feeling down or anxious, procrastinating, experiencing ADHD symptoms or having behavioral challenges, there are proven and effective ways of learning to overcome these negative emotions and behaviors while learning about yourself and what's important to you.

I am a clinical social worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience helping individuals and families cope with life stressors and sometimes navigate more complicated problems. I frequently work with clients who experience anxiety, depression, intense emotions, or overwhelming stress and those who have issues related to substance use, legal, or other behavioral problems. I firmly believe that you are the expert in your own life, whatever the situation.

Growing up is hard and sometimes tough to navigate, for kids and parents! Between early childhood and young adulthood, there are many challenges that children face on a daily basis. Often times, daily tasks and transitions bring on stress and sometimes depression and anxiety. Events ranging from separation to assault can provoke traumatic stress in the youngest child. This stress may lead to behaviors like isolating, self harm, crying, bed wetting, refusing to participate in activities or acting out. Your child has their own way of coping with change, which may negatively affect their relationships with teachers, friends or parents.

My main goal is to provide a supportive environment for you to identify what obstacles are preventing you from living a more satisfying life. Together, we will explore your resiliency and tools that you already have in your "tool box" to overcome such challenges. I have experience providing support to individuals with depression, anxiety, and anger management issues, trauma and trauma recovery, crisis intervention, processing previous and recent sexual assault or sexual abuse, and adolescent emotional/behavioral issues.

Good mental health as a child is essential to happiness and well-being as an adult. Our mission is to help children, adolescents, and their parents develop healthy, positive responses to issues related to mental, emotional, and behavioral health.

I am here to listen to you. I work with children, teens, and adults to support exploration of difficult issues and life changes. Often what brings someone to seek counseling, either for themselves or for their child, is being faced with a challenge they need support navigating and resolving. This issue may result from an atypical experience or be more pervasive, and can bring about feelings of anger, depression, anxiety, low self-worth, or communication issues. Taking the risk to ask for help is the first step on the road toward healing and growth.
