Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, or stuck—especially in their relationships, careers, or overall sense of self. You might notice a constant sense of tension, like you're waiting for the other shoe to drop. Maybe you’ve felt more irritable than usual, or like life has just gotten harder for reasons you can’t quite explain. Activities that used to lift your mood might now feel dull. Even after a full night’s sleep and self care, you may still feel groggy and drained. You might find yourself procrastinating on tasks you care about, people-pleasing to avoid conflict, or seeking constant reassurance in your relationships—without ever truly feeling relieved.

Maybe there’s a part of you that fears you’re only succeeding because of luck or a mistake—that you’re a fraud, and it’s only a matter of time before others figure it out. Or maybe you’re a survivor of trauma and can’t shake the feeling that what happened was somehow your fault. You may even feel broken or beyond repair.

Most of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, burnout, body image concerns, OCD (including Relationship OCD/ROCD),low self-worth, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, or the lingering impact of unresolved trauma.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) trained in EMDR, I take a trauma-informed, compassionate approach tailored to your unique needs and goals. I integrate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), parts work, and other practical, evidence-based tools to support healing, clarity, and growth. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected to the life you want to lead.

My practice, Adaptive Therapy, offers virtual therapy for adults across California—including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, and surrounding areas. If you're curious about working together, I offer a free 20-minute phone or video consultation to see if we might be a good fit.
