About
Thank you for considering me. I know this is hard, but you're not alone. With over 23 years experience, I can help! Feeling stuck with anxiety, grief, or depression? You want to feel happy, but old hurtful experiences keep you in the same life patterns despite your best efforts to change. Issues with your self-esteem make it hard to set clear boundaries. You want to be more successful in relationships managing when to control and where to let go. Dwelling in your head too much you just want to feel more comfortable in your own skin. Therapy can help you to be more productive, focused, enjoying relationships, and engaged in life. I have been helping anxious, sad, and sensitive adults with online psychotherapy to create happy lives.
I specialize in therapy for anxiety, depression, relationships, loss, self-esteem, and trauma. We explore patterns of self-defeating thoughts-beliefs-actions to uncover their roots. Learn to set clear boundaries, manage anxiety, respond in healthy ways, and make better life choices. I use skills of cognitive therapy, EMDR, and mind-body awareness for healing.
My style is warm, honest, and interactive. I value getting to know you deeply and supporting you through all the changes in your life. I provide a safe place in which you are deeply understood, while being supported towards lasting growth and change. I'm a licensed seasoned therapist in long-term private practice, and I teach psychology at a local college. Voted "Best Of San Jose CA Therapist" 2020-2023.
