Bipolar Disorder Therapists in California

I’ve been in private practice for nearly 20 years….but there is more than an education or experience.  My work has been filled with the lives of people I have been able to witness heal traumas, or find a new journey, or come to themselves more fully.  Counseling may bring relief, recovery, tools to use or release from pain. Healing is a pathway and I get to walk beside you. I will hold the hope until you can hold it, and I will be honored to go on your journey with you.
