IN-PERSON IN ROSEVILLE
ONLINE ACROSS CA & TX
Online counseling for individuals
Helping men and women achieve a sense of calmness, connection, and confidence in life.
This can't be how life is supposed to go.
You’re spending so much time in your own head that it feels impossible not to overthink, second-guess, and question yourself at every turn.
As much as you want to look like you have it all together, you live with a constant sense of unease and anxiety that is impacting how you show up in your life, your work, and your relationships.
You have a sense that your past is somehow affecting your present — that the experiences you had as a child and throughout life are impacting the way you feel today. You want to understand how all of these pieces are connected so you can create a new future for yourself and your relationships.
You’re ready to:
Break the anxious thought patterns that you know aren’t productive.
Feel proud of how you are showing up in your relationships.
Hold healthier, loving boundaries that protect your mind and your heart.
No longer feel controlled by your emotions.
Be confident that you can be “ok” even if life around you doesn’t feel that way.
How it works
Profound, lasting change is possible through online counseling.
More than anything, you want to feel better, gain clarity, and improve your relationships.
In counseling, we’ll examine both your current experiences and your past ones in order to do that. By understanding how past experiences have influenced and programmed you for how you act, feel, and think today, we can unlock ways to help you change those things at their core. This frees you to create a future of your own choosing: one that aligns with your authentic self and the life you deserve.
I don’t approach online counseling with an agenda. Instead, our time together is guided by your goals and what you bring to each session. With a focus on effective therapies, including evidence-based Brainspotting and intensives, I seek what works in order to offer new perspectives, get to the root causes of your challenges, and push the boundaries of comfort to help you experience real growth.
A calmer, more authentic you also means healthier, more satisfying relationships, so we’ll spend time working on ways to reduce conflict, increase confidence, and feel less reactive to your partner.
My goal is that you leave each session with something tangible to apply to your day-to-day: something to think about, something to try, something to read, or another tool to begin making the small tweaks that add up to big change. If your busy schedule doesn’t allow for traditional weekly or biweekly therapy, I also offer intensives. Click here to learn more.
Frequently asked questions
-
During the first few sessions we will talk about the struggles that bring you to therapy, your history, and define your goals. As a therapist, I have a real-life, practical, and straightforward approach. This means I will be actively involved in our sessions, helping you to achieve your goals.
-
How long you will be in therapy depends on your needs. The research suggests that most therapy clients feel improvement in 12 - 15 sessions and I would expect the same for us. Some clients feel better enough that they graduate within that time. Others find that they enjoy the process of therapy and want to continue as their lives change and evolve. My goal is to help you meet your goals as soon as possible. As long as counseling continues to be helpful, I’ll be here to support you.
The length of time we’ll spend together will depend on your needs as a couple. Some couples come in to address a specific issue while others find that they stay with me for a while as their lives evolve and circumstances change.
-
While I can’t make guarantees, I can tell you that I know growth, healing and change are possible. I see it everyday as I witness my clients' relationships evolve and improve.
Study after study has shown that the quality of the relationship between client and therapist is the most reliable and the most powerful predictor of a positive outcome in therapy, which is why I offer a free consultation to ensure I am the right person to help you.
-
Brainspotting is an evidence-based approach to help you access your body’s own capacity to heal and achieve deep, long-lasting change. Much like you might look off into the distance to try and remember something, your eye positions are linked to different areas of your mind that store thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. In Brainspotting, we can access stored trauma or pain by fixing your eye positions on specific locations.
Research indicates it may be more effective than Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) due to its increased precision.

As an evidence-based practice, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) has been shown to provide quick relief from upsetting and disturbing memories and events in just one to five sessions, typically over the course of 2 to 3 weeks. All without having to talk about the details.
The directive and interactive design facilitates these rapid results at a deep neurological level, without the guesswork of free association, as in other therapies.

A Therapy Intensive is an accelerated form of therapy designed to help clients go deeper and get results faster. Instead of attending therapy one hour per week for a year, you can accomplish the same level of work in just a few days. Intensives are an approach to help people feel better faster.
