Anxiety Therapists in Simi Valley, CA
If you are feeling unfulfilled, stuck, anxious, sad or resentful, or if you find yourself continuing to react to external events in a pattern which does not bring you (or those around you) peace and harmony, the practice of Mindfulness can help reduce your habitual patterns of reactivity and guide you to a more harmonious and peaceful life. We will examine your present needs and personal goals, and together we will determine the best course of action. I highly respect your integrity and belief system, and we will work together to uncover the wisdom that lies within you.

I have been a psychotherapist for 38 years, working with anxiety and depression, trauma, marital and family conflict, grief and loss, sexuality and sexual orientation issues, and finding passion and meaning in life.
Do you feel like you're not living your life to its fullest? The decision to seek therapy often comes after a painful process of self-evaluation. The realization that your life may be lacking in vitality can be upsetting but may provide the opening for something new and more hopeful to emerge. I believe that when we choose to experience our suffering willingly and openly, we create the opportunity for personal transformation. I can facilitate this process of change to help you find greater meaning in your life.

Life is too valuable to be caught up in negative relationships, holding on to anger, letting trauma dictate our moves, or being overly anxious all the time.
You truly deserve to live a life that has you excited to wake up every morning. I believe everyone should be in pursuit of happiness and sometimes we get stuck. You may be living a life that leaves you unfulfilled, you may be having struggling building long lasting relationships or maintaining them, you may be a parent looking for support and guidance for you child. Whatever you are going through I believe that it can be resolved so that you can live life on your terms.

I help clients reduce and manage anxiety, enforce healthy boundaries, learn vocabulary to voice your feelings, and manage the difficulties that arise in relationships.
You feel unmotivated. You feel stuck. Your life feels like a lukewarm bath; not warm enough to get comfortable, not cold enough to make you want to get out. The monotony of your story feels alienating, and you can see it affecting your relationships, your job, and even how you view yourself. Within you is a desire to discover an authentic and passionate journey, one where you look back at the story of your life and say “That was my life, and it was an amazing one.” Now is the time to start that journey.

My goals are to make therapy a "safe place" by welcoming you with empathy, validation, affirmation, assistance and tender care (the way we all want to be treated).

My experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults with various diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, etc.
Hi! Welcome to my small online practice, and congratulations on taking the step in looking into therapy - I know it can be challenging! My primary goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and comfortable space where you can be yourself and open up about things that you may be struggling with, or things that are causing you stress. Our sessions will not be a one-sided conversation, nor will they be mundane (trust me!), but rather there will be a lot of conversation and interaction, and together we can work on the things you want to change. I want you to find the peace and healing that you desire.
