Transform perfectionism into authenticity and purpose
Virtual therapy in California
I help adults and couples overcome anxiety and unhealthy patterns in relationships, learn to regulate emotions to build confidence and trust.
It IS possible to…
Live a life where anxiety no longer holds you back, have the tools to overcome daily struggles, and a renewed sense of control within yourself and your relationships.
It is time to invest in YOU!
Maybe you feel…
Inadequate, inferior, and not good enough.
Like you can’t trust in yourself to have your own opinion, belief, or make a decision you feel good about.
Overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts that keep you from falling asleep or feeling in control of your life or emotions.
Fearful of trusting others, worrying they may reject you, abandon you, or judge you.
Like you walk on eggshells around others, scared to say the wrong thing so you shut down and don’t speak up.
Uncomfortable to disagree with others so you often “keep the peace” instead of protecting your own peace.
I want to help you break free from these patterns so you can learn to prioritize yourself, your needs, and feelings to have fulfilling and reciprocal relationships.

My Specialties
-
Anxiety
Anxiety can be detrimental in that we can overthink, doubt ourselves, freeze up, or not speak up when we need to. Let’s identify the sources of your anxiety so you can learn healthier ways to cope.
-
Codependency
Disconnection from yourself and others can leave you feeling lost. I want to empower you to learn how you can value yourself without the guilt, anxiety, and stress.
-
Relationship Issues
We tend to repeat patterns in our relationships that reflect on areas within ourselves that need tending to. While relationships can be healing, they can also create challenges.
