A place to reset and feel like yourself again
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I offer EMDR therapy in person in Walnut Creek and online throughout California, helping adults work through anxiety, burnout, and relationship challenges.
You’re doing everything you’re supposed to, but you still don’t feel okay.
Maybe you lie awake at night replaying the day, your brain stuck on a loop of worries, to-dos, or awkward moments. Or maybe you’re powering through just fine on the outside, but underneath, you feel anxious, disconnected, or low-key overwhelmed. You might be telling yourself it’s just a rough patch. That other people have it worse. That you should be able to handle this.
But something isn’t working. You feel stuck. Tired. Out of sync with yourself.
In my practice, I work with people who are holding it together on the outside, but everything feels harder than it should be on the inside. Maybe it’s stress from work, racing thoughts you can’t shut off, or relationships that leave you second-guessing yourself. Whatever it is, I get how exhausting it can be to keep pushing through.

In session, I bring a steady, down-to-earth presence. I offer helpful tools, ask thoughtful questions, and give honest feedback without pressure or judgment.
