Sick of trying to get emotional support from a screen? I get it. Teletherapy works great for some. For others, it feels awkward or uncomfortable. Being on camera and seeing yourself on a screen can make it hard to be vulnerable and feel connected with your therapist. I offer both in-person and remote sessions. If teletherapy works for you, we can connect by phone or video. If it doesn't, we can meet in my office. Either way, I'll be here when you're ready. Text me at 415-841-3338 to set u...

I've worked with parents in the Sacramento area for 2 decades now, but as my own children have grown into young adults I have also made a shift into working with college students of any age. I'm not sure whether it's an openness to learning that extends to person growth, my ability to relate to the challenges of academia, or what exactly makes the relationship so successful, but I have found it to be mutually beneficial to the students I work with. I use an eclectic approach of mindfulness, psy...

Are you struggling? Are you feeling you have to withdraw from the world or you've lost some of the spark for living? Maybe you consider yourself unconventional in some way. You may feel like it's hard both to be yourself and to get the support you need, as if the message others are giving is "You can be your authentic self or you can have their compassion and understanding, but you can have both." Maybe this has lead to feeling isolated or like others can't truly understand what you're going thr...
