Trauma Informed Individual Therapy in California & Arizona
I provide individual therapy with a trauma focus across the state of California and Arizona. As a trauma informed therapist, I help people unpack, how their upbringing including, past traumas, micro and macro aggressions, culture, race, and ethnicity, may be impacting the way that they show up in their adult relationships.
I help people feel more present, confident, and able to navigate their relationships from a place of understanding how the messages that they have received growing up might be impacting how they relate to the world around them. This includes their relationships at both work and home.
Our upbringing and culture impact the way we view and navigate our lives. If you are struggling with how your upbringing including, past traumas, micro and macro aggressions, culture, race, and ethnicity, impacts how you engage with others, individual therapy with a trauma approach might be right for you!
Trauma Informed Individual Therapy in California & Arizona
In my work with individual therapy clients, I work with clients to unpack how their upbringing including, past traumas, micro and macro aggressions, culture, race, and ethnicity, may be impacting the struggles that they are facing. I work with clients to take a hard look into the messages that they have received, helping them identify what their values are, and how they would like to live their life. Together we create a plan to help them live a life where they can gain the ability to communicate and live their life according to values that bring them healing and wellness. Below is a list of common issues addressed in individual counseling.

Online Therapy in California & Arizona
Online therapy, or teletherapy, is therapy done outside of a traditional therapy office, often from the comfort of your own home. As long as we have privacy, therapy can be done from a private office at work, a private study room at school, a safely parked car, or from the comfort of your own apartment. Research shows that teletherapy or online therapy, is just as effective as traditional therapy where you come into the office.
Online therapy is convenient and works for people who have busy schedules, don’t have the time to deal with traffic and the commute to a therapy session at a therapy office. With online counseling or teletherapy, you can hop on to your appointment right at the start of your scheduled therapy session from your computer, laptop, or phone.
I recommend that you have a drink, some tissues, and a pair of headphones so that you can make the most of your online therapy experience. Also if you have a pet they're welcome to join and give you comfort during our sessions together. You might even catch a glimpse of my own puppers!
