Therapists for college students near 94132

From the outside, everything seems great. However, you are paralyzed by fears and worries. Your inner critic is constantly telling you what you can and cannot do, leading to indecision. Always feeling like you should be doing more and nothing is ever good enough. Every day you go through the motions, yet desire for change. That change is possible. My goal is to help you achieve the results you want and to improve your quality of life. My approach is direct yet compassionate, goal oriented, and collaborative. You want to stop second guessing yourself. You want to tame your inner critic so that you can feel confident and relaxed without always wondering what others think. You want to prioritize yourself without feeling guilty. I can help you get there by offering an alternative perspective, providing support, and encouraging you to step outside your comfort zone. I offer weeknight availability to fit into your busy schedule. I look forward to empowering you on your journey towards meaningful change and a more fulling life.

Hi! Glad you’re here. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I enjoy working with kids, adults, couples and families. I earned my Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of San Diego in 2005, and completed a clinical internship in UCSD’s Department of Family Medicine. There I collaborated with physicians in the care of patients and their family members. To this day, I follow a “bio-psycho-social” systems approach- looking at a client’s physical health (bio), emotional health (psycho), and current relationships and support systems (social). Because relationships can be both a source of worry - and also our greatest asset- a genuine connection (with family, friends, coworkers, etc) truly fosters improved emotional health. Considering our current stressors from a “systems perspective” allows us to cultivate a deeper understanding of how our family interactions and social connections affect our daily lives. We can enrich those connections, develop healthier boundaries, and connect meaningfully with people in our lives in a way that does not leave us feeling as drained or anxious. While it is certainly essential to address current challenges or problems, it is just as important to simultaneously identify strengths and assets already residing within. Looking at how to utilize coping skills, or learning new ones, helps bolster resiliency and brings new change. We work toward responding to adversity by changing course, healing, using new coping skills and then continuing forward. The act of seeking help can often feel overwhelming for anyone; it helps to not do it alone. I do my best to offer guidance, support, and dedicated focus on developing an approach tailored to meet a client’s particular set of current needs.

Sometimes our reality can feel far off from our desires and goals. Maybe you feel stuck, stressed, overwhelmed or full of a lot of uncertainty in your life or relationships, or maybe you’re trying to figure to all out on your own and you just want to get back to that healthier version of yourself but just not sure how. Be encouraged you don't have to figure it all out alone! We will work collaboratively towards your goals and create a path forward where change is possible, and hope restored.

Welcome! There are numerous reasons to seek out therapy. Whether it is a life transition or a life with trauma, therapy can augment your overall wellness. Our practice is based on having a relationship with you to collaborate and identify what goals you are working toward. Congratulations on taking the first courageous step to move in the direction toward what is meaningful to you. We work with diverse populations and can specifically tailor treatment to your needs utilizing evidence-based treatments. Flexible scheduling is provided, including evening and weekend sessions. We limit the number of patients we take; therefore, we are able to meet your needs more readily.

I offer straightforward help with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. It starts by developing a holistic understanding of your situation and history. With that shared perspective, we'll work together to find the best way to resolve your current challenges. Our work together may involve finding a kinder way of relating to yourself and more effective ways of connecting with others and getting their support. If it requires developing new skills, I offer help through mindfulness, breathing practices, biofeedback, relaxation, and thought management. I'm confident that by learning to think and act differently, and addressing obstacles to change, you will gain more control over your life and start feeling better.

Hello! I serve adolescent and adult clients from a variety of backgrounds who all are seeking freedom from stress and overwhelm.

They all want to heal and be free from the patterns they experience. I would love to help you in your journey too!
