Have You Lost Your Way In Life?

Life may feel like a struggle right now. You may be really hard on yourself, thinking that there is something wrong with you – that somehow, you should be doing better than you are or that you should be able to hold everything together, regardless of how difficult things become.

Many people come to me because they experience the following:

  • Feel empty and unsuccessful, despite the fact that they have had some good successes in their life.
  • Struggle with anxiety (e.g., worry, OCD, panic attacks) and want to get off the fear merry-go-round.
  • Want to figure out why their relationships aren’t working.
  • Want to stop feeling “not good enough” and unworthy.
  • Recognize that their efforts to fix the problem aren’t working.

If you can relate to any of these statements, there’s hope. Millions of people have made changes in their lives through counselling. Come in person if you live in the Five Cities Area or meet me online via Zoom if you live anywhere in the Golden State!

Start Feeling Better About Yourself, Your Direction and Your Relationships

You may be thinking that you’ve been feeling depressed or anxious for so long, that it will never change. Maybe you’ve even been in therapy before but nothing significant really changed. There is help!

Three effective, research-proven treatments that that I have invested in are:

  • EFT (Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy)
  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
  • STDP (Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy)

EMDR and STDP are often effective where other talk therapies have failed, and both together are even more powerful! Both can help to resolve issues such as chronic anxiety, depression, guilt, low self-esteem, and feelings of worthlessness. With relatively short treatment, symptoms decrease and positive feelings of confidence, self-worth, and optimism increase.

As your therapist, I can help you find your way to a happy, peace-filled life! I can assist you in becoming clearer about what is getting the way of your ideal life so that you can remove those obstacles.

Our shared process will help you make decisions that lead to the desired changes you’ve been unable to make up until now and ultimately transform your life.
