Anxiety Therapists in California

If you struggle with a lack of connection, bitterness, criticism, painful growing apart and unfulfilled expectations with your loved one… If you experience distress, don’t wait to seek support. The effects of resentment, contempt, lack of intimacy and compassion, and childhood or past trauma can be tremendous. You don’t need to navigate your healing journey alone. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment and to work with you on addressing emotional wounds. I specialize in relationship distress, and use evidence based therapeutic modalities in my practice. I also offer Couples Retreats: www.couple-care.com My commitment to you is for us to understand and shift your pain causing patterns, so you can move towards wellness. Reach me for a free phone consultation to see if my approach is a good fit for you. Personally I enjoy mindfulness and yoga, as well as writing. My novel 'Meera' is available internationally on Amazon.com, and portrays the relationship and relational conflicts of the protagonist, exploring her choices and ultimately her recovery.

Hello, and thank you for considering me to be your therapist. I know it can be a tough decision both to start therapy and to choose someone to work with, so I hope you can be proud of yourself for taking the steps. When we work together, I plan to see an increase in self-worth, and a desire to determine what you want and how to go for it! We'll work with what holds you back, and on how to create a vision that helps move through hardship, trauma, and barriers from the past. I operate with empathy and compassion, but with the framework of us each telling the truth so we can move toward what's helpful in your life. Together we can identify and explore patterns, the stories you tell yourself, and how what you learn about yourself is impacting your mood, self-image, relationships, career, family, etc. My intention is to provide you with reflection, resources, and questions that guide you to your own insight. You may recall things from your past, you may not. You might connect some dots, you might have some breakthroughs. You may be challenged, you might grow. Whatever therapy is meant to be for you, it can be. If you’d like to book a free 15-minute phone consultation, to determine if we’re a good mutual fit for this work, I’d love to hear from you!
