Individual Therapy

About My Clients

I work with adults, especially Gen Z and Millennials, who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and heal what's underneath: early childhood experiences, attachment wounds, and trauma. EMDR is often part of that work. You don't need to have it all figured out. Curiosity about yourself is enough to start.

Therapy works best with consistency, so we'll usually meet weekly at first and adjust as you make progress. The relationship between us matters more than any technique, and the free consultation is a chance for you to see whether my approach feels right for you.

My Approach

We start with what needs attention most. That might mean practical tools for the anxiety or overwhelm you're feeling right now, or space to process what you're carrying. Once things feel steadier, we look at where these patterns started.

Hard experiences, especially early ones, can leave us with beliefs like "I'm too much," "I'm not safe," or "I have to handle everything alone." Healing means working through those memories so they lose their charge, and building beliefs that feel truer and kinder.

This work isn't always easy, and my goal is to make the time you invest deeply worthwhile. I want you to leave therapy understanding how your experiences shaped you, and living from a steadier, more secure sense of yourself.

Much of this reprocessing work is done with EMDR therapy, which I offer in person in Bankers Hill, San Diego, and online throughout California and Hawai'i. If you'd like more uninterrupted time, see EMDR intensives.
