Therapy for Adults
I provide individual therapy to adults, as well as teens and children, in-person in Berkeley and virtually across California.
Does any of this describe you?
You’re going through the motions—day after day—without joy, without a sense of purpose. You've become disconnected from your creativity, from yourself, and from meaningful relationships.
On the outside, it looks like you’re holding things together. But inside, you feel overwhelmed and burned out—from overworking, over-accommodating, and carrying so much emotionally.
You’re thoughtful, self-aware, and you care deeply. But, self-doubt, social anxiety, and people-pleasing make it even harder to reach out or take up space. You want connection, but it often feels exhausting or out of reach. Most days, you’re just coping—through screens, substances, or whatever helps you get by.
The weight of it all—your past, the pandemic, and political stress—has left your nervous system overwhelmed.
You feel stuck.
The things that once brought you joy—creativity, connection, community—feel out of reach.
You don’t have to stay stuck
How I Help Adults who feel stuck
I work with adults through creating a sense of safety by building a trusting relationship and practicing tools to regulate the nervous system; using creative ways for us both to understand your experience; exploring thoughts and behaviors that are and are not serving you; exploring the roots of your challenges; healing "parts" or versions of yourself, such as your inner wounded child; helping you to identify and express your feelings; motivate you; lovingly hold you accountable to your values and goals; teaching strategies; connecting you to your body wisdom; teaching you to increase self-awareness; and, using bilateral eye movements to unburden you from the weight of the past.
In therapy jargon: My approach is client-centered, directive, strength-based, attachment-based, trauma-informed, systemic, experiential, solution-focused, and psychodynamic. I use narrative therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, somatics, expressive arts, parts work, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and liberation psychology.
I am client-centered, therapist-led. And, I lead with love.
If you are self-reflective, committed to learning more about yourself and the roots of your challenges, and to making changes, then we are a great fit.
Are you ready to face what's hard and holding you back from letting your resilience bloom?
