Therapists in California

What I find to be meaningful about my work is the chance to sit with others, hear their unique stories, and collaboratively create long term goals that are in alignment with my client’s life’s purpose. As a therapist that specializes in positive psychology (the science of happiness), I enjoy exploring and reviewing my client's inner strengths and seeing how these strengths can be applied in their personal and professional lives. I use a unique combination of active listening, collaborating, and educating clients on some of the most important findings in the field of psychology today.

Together we will work to develop resilience, a stronger self-esteem, healthier relationships, personal agency, insight, and strong coping skills.

Clients say my superpower is making them feel like they can talk about anything without feeling judged. This is really what I try to do for my clients as well, to change the temperature of that inner dialogue and improve their relationships to themselves.

I became a mental health professional because I had a period in my late 20s where I found myself in a life transition and existential/ spiritual search. I was fortunate to have connected with some very supportive integrative mental health professionals that weaved mind body elements into their practice.

As a professional I have found that there is tremendous value in being a catalyst towards personal growth and fostering personal power.

With my knowledge of how early emotional pain and trauma are linked to the formation of personality, mood and anxiety disorders, I create a therapy approach that is best suited to your needs, lifestyle, proclivities and ultimate goals.
