More On Therapy

Everyone deserves to feel safe and live their desired life. I provide online therapy services in the Long Beach and Los Angeles areas, as well as in Colorado and Texas. I help clients address psychological and emotional challenges, foster personal growth, explore cultural identity and promote overall well-being to enhance their quality of life.

Have you felt anxious, angry, sad, or guilty? Do you struggle with feeling confident? Whether you've managed to push through despite these feelings or find them increasingly overwhelming, you may be noticing their impact on your life. If things haven't improved and you're feeling a sense of dread, you're not alone.

I've witnessed firsthand the toll that unresolved anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma can take when left unaddressed. I'm here to provide the support you need.

It’s possible to challenge negative thoughts and change behavioral patterns that aren’t serving you anymore, as I’ve seen many clients achieve. My clients have been supported through life’s challenges and transitions and have emerged stronger on the other side. I believe you can too.

Why is psychotherapy intimidating? I get it, I’ve been there. It’s not easy to sit in front of a stranger and be vulnerable. It probably doesn’t help that society teaches us that asking for help is “weak”. However, I believe that vulnerability and sensitivity are strengths and that they are the key to living the life you desire. These strengths are worthy of being nourished. Therapy can provide that safe space to put ideas and concepts into practice when it’s too scary to do it out in the world. It can help you reconnect with yourself. It can support you in developing self-awareness, cultivating inner wisdom, and gain a better understanding of your relationships, especially the one with yourself. 

Why is therapy so hard? There is no doubt that therapy is tough work—there will be times of discomfort and uncertainty. There’s also hope and laughter. I encourage my clients to move at a pace that feels comfortable and I’m sure to keep them accountable, too. Though therapy isn’t a magic pill, I’m confident that if you put in the work, gradual change and progress is possible.

I’ll support your unique needs and strengths as you learn to navigate your triggers, feelings, thoughts, and relationships differently. You’ll learn about the importance of self-compassion, communicating needs, confronting fears, and nurturing relationships.

Together we’ll figure things out, so that you can begin building a life that feels safe and true to you. If you’re ready to take the next step, schedule a free consultation with me today.
