Individual Therapy for California residentsOne-on-One Therapy Where Lasting Change Begins
Lasting Healing Starts at the RootCHANGING THE PATTERNTherapy shouldn't just help you understand yourself —It should help you live differently
Many of my clients come to therapy because they're tired of repeating the same emotional cycle.
They struggle with:
Anxiety that never seems to quiet down
Constant overthinking
People-pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries
Feeling responsible for everyone else's emotions
Choosing emotionally unavailable partners
Staying in unhealthy relationships longer than they want to
Childhood wounds that continue to shape their adult life
Feeling exhausted from always being the strong one
If this sounds familiar, you're not broken.
You're living from patterns that once helped you survive—but no longer serve you.
Together, we'll begin changing them.
What this looks likeMore Than Support—A Path to Healing
I show up as my authentic self to each session because I know how important it is to be able to trust and relate to your therapist.
Sometimes all you need is a guide. A professional who has expertise not only through years of knowledge and clinical experience but also through personal experience. I've experienced attachment trauma myself and have developed a unique approach drawn from that experience and over a decade of clinical practice.
My therapeutic approach is one of wholeness. Rather than finding temporary relief of symptoms, I help clients find lasting growth and healing.
Therapeutic ModalitiesA Holistic Approach
I don't use just one approach. I draw from multiple modalities based on what you need in the moment. Here are the ones I use most.
Brainspotting
Brainspotting is a powerful, brain-body approach designed to help you work with trauma, emotional pain and experiences that may still feel unresolved, even when you understand them intellectually. Using your visual field we identify “brainspots” or eye positions that are connected to emotionally or physically activating experiences. Brainspotting can bypasses the thinking brain to access what talk therapy often can't reach.
IFS
IFS (Internal Family Systems) works with the “parts” of you that may have developed in response to difficult or overwhelming experiences. The protector who people pleases to keep the peace, the inner critic who pushes you to get everything right, or the younger part still carrying pain from the past. As we get to know them, we understand their roles and help them recognize that the past is no longer happening and develop new ways of responding that are more aligned with who you are today.
Additional Modalities
Somatic Work (a body-centered approach to therapy that uses titration and pendulation to gently work with painful trauma sensations, moving between discomfort and greater safety or ease to support nervous system regulation and healing)
TFACT (Trauma-Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps build psychological flexibility while moving toward a life guided by personal values)
CBT - Informed Therapy (Using the core ideas of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy without strictly following a CBT protocol)
DBT - Informed Therapy (Using the core principles and coping skills of Dialectical Behavior Therapy without following the full ridged structure of comprehensive DBT)
Therapy That Helps You Move ForwardThe End Goal? Needing Therapy Less
The goal of therapy isn't to keep you in therapy forever—it's to help you build a life where you don't need it as often.
Many clients begin with weekly sessions, then transition to every other week as they experience meaningful progress. Over time, many reach a place where they schedule sessions only as needed.
Clients frequently notice healthier relationships, greater emotional resilience, increased self-confidence, clearer boundaries, and a stronger sense of peace in their daily lives.
Healing looks different for everyone, but the goal is always the same: lasting change that extends far beyond the therapy room.

Session Frequency
Weekly- Best for clients who want consistent momentum and ongoing support.
Every Other Week- Some clients prefer a bi-weekly rhythm that allows time for integration while making therapy more financially manageable.
As Needed- Clients may also schedule sessions only when support is needed, typically ranging from 0–3 sessions per month. This option works well for clients who want professional support available without committing to a weekly schedule.
insuranceMost clients with out-of-network benefits get 60–80% reimbursed.
I'm an out-of-network provider. Mentaya automatically submits claims to your insurance after each session, so you don't have to deal with paperwork or submit anything yourself.
