Individual Therapy
One on one support
Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Life Transitions
Life can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself caught in patterns of anxiety, self-doubt, stress, or emotional exhaustion, unsure of how to move forward despite your best efforts.
Therapy offers a space to better understand those patterns, reconnect with yourself, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I provide individual therapy in San Luis Obispo for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal growth.
(More about me and my approach here.)

What Can Change Through Individual Therapy?
Therapy isn't about becoming a different person—it's about developing a deeper understanding of yourself and creating more choice in how you respond to life's challenges.
Through therapy you may begin to:
Feel less overwhelmed by anxiety and stress
Recognize patterns that keep you stuck
Develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself
Navigate relationships with greater clarity
Feel more grounded and confident
Build resilience through life's challenges
Our work together is collaborative, and we'll shape therapy around your unique goals, experiences, and what feels most supportive to you.
My Approach to Therapy
I tailor therapy to each person's needs, integrating traditional talk therapy with somatic, relational, and trauma-informed approaches. Together, we'll build insight, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop practical tools that support meaningful change.
Why Work With Me?
Over a decade of experience supporting folks through anxiety, trauma, and life transitions
Graduate training in Somatic Counseling Psychology
A warm, collaborative approach that integrates insight, nervous system awareness, and practical tools
What to Expect in Sessions
A supportive, nonjudgmental environment
Space to talk openly and honestly
Gentle guidance and reflection
Tools to help you navigate challenges outside of sessions
Sessions are tailored to you and your pace.
Therapy isn't about doing it "right." We'll work at a pace that feels supportive, creating a process that fits your goals and your life.
Therapy doesn't require you to have everything figured out before you begin. Part of our work is making sense of experiences that may still feel confusing or difficult to put into words.
