Therapy for Teens and Adults

Providing Trauma-Informed Therapy in Berkeley, Oakland, and Virtually Throughout California

Healing childhood trauma is key to living a healthier, more balanced life.

Unhealed childhood trauma can deeply affect your emotions, behaviors, and relationships. It can often present as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, substance abuse, chronic pain, and a wide range of other mental and emotional health challenges. Furthermore, you may find that you frequently experience difficulty being vulnerable and connecting deeply in relationships with others. That is why I am dedicated to helping you heal childhood trauma and improve the overall quality of your life.

I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for us to explore and understand the early life experiences and critical events that contributed to the development of coping strategies you may have used to survive childhood— strategies which no longer serve you today and, in fact, lead to a tremendous amount of pain.

We will work together to break through the defenses that are serving as barriers to you living a fulfilling, purposeful life. Furthermore, you will learn new ways of relating to yourself and others in a more authentic and healthy manner.
