Adults Therapists in Walnut Creek, CA

To become more intimate or connected to others, we need to improve the quality of connection to ourselves. I work with children, teens and adults. I specialize in working with individuals who are seeking personal empowerment in their lives. There are many life events, situations, or relationships that interfere with one's sense of empowerment. When feeling disempowered, one's capacity to access a full self becomes limited.

Many are unsure if they have an addiction, or if they really are an alcoholic. Sometimes you drink too much, have regrets the next day, feel embarrassed about losing control and worry about your health. Drinking and using to numb the pain leaves you feeling very alone. You are sick of hiding, of keeping secrets. Should you stop altogether or figure out how to moderate? I can help this exploration in a non-judgmental way to find answers. Many people in recovery are often disappointed their ‘problems’ are not fixed; they feel stuck, depressed and anxious and relationship challenges persist.

My approach to therapy integrates evidence-based practices grounded in the psychological literature. I have experience working with adolescents and adults to reduce or eliminate: anxiety, stress, and anger issues; depressive and bipolar mood symptom management; relationship, work, and school issues; problems with rumination and repetitive behaviors, and substance use problems. The structure of sessions varies based on a client's needs and can focus on: processing life events, understanding past and current issues, moving through difficult emotions, or learning skills for sustained behavior change and improved emotional processing.

Hi! I have spent time training with children, teens, and adults facing various challenges in their lives. It is my belief that therapy is a collaborative space where each client is confident that they are seen and known. My hope is that sessions provide a space for healing, growing awareness, self-discovery and development of tools that can be used to empower you in your everyday life. I approach each of my clients with wholehearted curiosity and compassion for their life experiences. I place high value on developing a therapeutic relationship that emphasizes care, trust and understanding. It is my honor to be part of your journey!

Something’s changed. That change can be any number of things - recent baby, newly out of or into middle school/high school, change in family dynamics, or others. But something has changed and it doesn’t feel right. You used to feel like you had it together - like you were writing your own story and happy with where it was going. But lately, it doesn’t feel that way. Lately, it feels like there’s an editor changing things in your story and it’s not working out! You feel lost, maybe depressed, anxious or angry, or maybe you’re not sure what you feel, just that something’s not right.

And so, I returned to school and obtained a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (2024). I work with a variety of clients that includes children, adolescents, adults, and families.
