Psychotherapy Services
What do I need to know?
Psychotherapy is for people who are struggling with mental health challenges that are preventing them from functioning in their day to day life.
As a psychotherapist, I can diagnose and provide treatment for these challenges that follow California licensure law and ethics.
I work virtually with my clients through a confidential and HIPPA compliant telehealth platform.
I do not offer in-person sessions at this time.
I am a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist(#143653) in California, which means I am Clinically Supervised by a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who ensures I'm providing the best care possible and reviews my cases with me. In order to provide Psychotherapy to you, you need to meet the following:
- Be physically located in California
- Are eligible for telehealth treatment (this will be determined during our consultation)

What kind of therapy do you do?
As a Depth Psychotherapist, I focus on the deeper subconscious wounds and behaviors driving our current suffering. I don't believe in band-aid solutions. The work I focus on gets to the root of the problem, so you aren't just managing symptoms your entire life.
I use a combination of Expressive Art Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients build skills and process trauma. My method does not require clients to talk about their traumatic experiences if they don't want to.
These methods are trauma-informed, evidence-based, and have been proven to do the following:
- Improve nervous system regulation
- Improve emotional regulation
- Develop insight and perspective
- Reprocess traumatic memories
- Integrate trauma into the present
My Therapy Approach
- Non-pathologizing & Trauma - Informed- I look at everything through a trauma-informed lense. I only use labels if you find them helpful, and work to help you understand how trauma has impacted you and how to heal forward.
- Collaborative - I don't tell you what to do. We decide together what's best and how to move forward with your counseling.
- Holistic - I look at the whole you - mind, body, and soul. Your bodymind is one unit, and I treat it as such in our work together.
- Person-Centered - I don't believe in cookie-cutter solutions. You're a unique person with unique needs, which means we move at your pace, with a plan that's tailored to your specific needs.
Who is it for?
Psychotherapy is for people who:
- Struggle to function and meet day to day needs
- Struggling with emotions that are overwhelming and hard to manage
- Have traumatic past experiences currently impacting the present in a negative way
- Need intensive emotional healing
- Are struggling to engage in healthy relationships
- Are at risk of hurting themselves or others and need more intensive support to get better
Pricing
I charge $195 per therapy hour, and do offer a sliding scale.
I currently do not take insurance.
I'm still not sure...
It can be hard to ask for help, and that's okay. If you're still unsure, or just aren't ready, you can schedule a free 20 minute consultation with me to figure out the next steps - no strings attached, or sign up for my newsletter where waitlist updates, workshop announcements, and mental wellness info and resources are sent out.
Be gentle with yourself, you got this.
