Therapy

  • I provide individual therapy services to adults (18+) who reside in California and Washington State via telehealth sessions.

  • I want to make sure people feel safe and comfortable being their unapologetic selves. Feel free to laugh, cry, and curse all you want as I’ll probably be joining you! I encourage folks to go at the pace that feels best for themselves.

  • I offer weekly and biweekly sessions, depending on what your needs and financial circumstances are. If you’re justing starting therapy, I would recommend weekly sessions for us to build a therapeutic relationship and to help you get started on your goals sooner rather than later if sessions were not as frequent.

    Of course, if you’re at a place where you’re feeling pretty solid with your progress and aren’t needing to meet with me as frequently, we could discuss tapering off to monthly sessions.

  • Each session is 50 minutes. During the first appointment, this will be a time for us to explore what brings you to therapy and identify what your goals are. I’ll probably be asking you more questions than I usually would in order to learn more about yourself and your background.

    If it feels like we’re a good match and continue working together, sessions will start with a check-in. It could be following-up on homework (yes, I assign homework!), something we talked about in our last session, or just having an open dialogue about how you’ve been doing.

  • Therapy isn’t one size fits all; each session is tailored to the needs of each client. The types of therapy I often incorporate are:

    • Culturally Sensitive

    • Person-Centered

    • Strength-Based

    • Depth Therapy

    • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

    • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

    • Dialectical Behavior Therapy

    • Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) also known as “tapping”
