Personalized Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout and Depression
No two healing journeys are the same - and therapy shouldn’t be either. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, or unresolved trauma, I offer an integrative, personalized approach rooted in both compassion and evidence-based care.
Together, we’ll explore your goals, challenges, and needs to find a therapeutic path that works best for you.
Challenges We Can Tackle Together
Therapy for Anxiety and Depression
Feel more steady, present, and like yourself again.
Anxiety and depression can leave you feeling stuck in your thoughts, disconnected from joy, and unsure how to move forward. Using a combination of approaches - including EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, and CBT techniques - we’ll work together to understand the roots of what you’re feeling and build tools to manage it effectively.
Therapy for Parenting and Postpartum
Support for the hardest - and most meaningful - role in your life.
Parenting can be both beautiful and incredibly demanding. Whether you’re a mom adjusting to life postpartum, navigating identity shifts, or managing stress while trying to “do it all”, you deserve space to process, heal, and feel supported. Together, we can explore the emotional toll of caregiving, reconnect you with your needs, and build tools for balance, boundaries, and self-compassion.
Therapy for Relationships
Strengthen your connections - starting with yourself.
Whether you’re navigating conflict, communication issues, or feeling disconnected in your relationships, individual therapy can help you develop boundaries, improve emotional intimacy, and work through past relationship wounds. We’ll explore your past and current experiences so you can build deeper, more fulfilling connections.
Primary Therapy Approaches
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Trauma Therapy
EMDR therapy is a powerful, research-backed approach for treating trauma, anxiety, and overwhelming life events. It helps you reprocess distressing memories so they no longer hold the same emotional charge - allowing your mind and body to move toward healing and integration.
Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy helps you tune into your body’s signals and sensations to uncover patterns of stress and trauma that talk therapy alone may not reach. By gently connecting with your nervous system, you can access deeper emotional awareness and relesase what’s been held in the body.
Attachment-Focused Therapy
Attachment-focused therapy explores how your early experiences - especially in childhood or caregiving relationships - impact how you relate to yourself and others today. This work helps heal emotional pain at the root, so you can build more secure, connected relationships now.
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
CBT is an evidence-based therapy that helps you recognize and reframe negative thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. It’s practical, focused, and highly effective for managing everyday challenges.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness practices help you become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, and body - without judgement. When integrated into therapy, mindfulness can improve emotional regulation, reduce reactivity, and create space for self-compassion and healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
During the initial consultation, I will ask for a brief description of what problems you are hoping to address. I will also provide you with a brief overview of my therapeutic approach so that we can both decide if this is the right fit. Once we schedule an appointment, I will provide you with some paperwork that can be filled out and submitted electronically prior to the appointment. During our first session together, we will dive into the issues right away, while I may also be asking some historical questions to ensure I fully understand your story and the big picture.
-
Therapy is a process and its length depends on your personal goals and progress. Typically, it takes about 1-2 sessions to chart out the problem areas you would like to address and to come up with a plan together. However, it does not mean that no therapeutic work will be done during this time. I strongly believe that we can dive into addressing the problems that bring you in from the very beginning of the therapy process. Ultimately, you will be in charge of deciding how long you would like therapy to last given my professional recommendations.
-
I offer free 15-minute consultations.
My fee for a 50-minute session is $200.
Weekly sessions are highly recommended during the initial phase of the therapy process.
-
I am currently not in network with any of the insurance plans.
However, I can provide a superbill for out of network reimbursement from your insurance plan.
If you have any questions around insurance and reimbursement, please reach out and I’ll be happy to discuss in more detail. I am here to help!
-
Yes, I offer in-person sessions. My office is located in Carlsbad, CA.
In addition, I offere walk and talk therapy sessions. We can meet at selected locations for a stroll outside while talking about your concerns. There are great benefits associated with therapy sessions that are conducted outside while walking.
-
I use a HIPAA compliant, safe, and confidential meeting space for all of my virtual appointments. Telehealth has its own risks and benefits that we can discuss in detail before we dive into the therapy process. However, I have facilitated hundreds of virtual sessions and I believe that the benefits greatly outweigh the risks. Teletherapy is a safe and effective way to receive therapeutic care from the comfort of your own home. It is also more flexible and convenient, giving you direct access to many more therapists than in your immediate geographical area.
