Individual Therapy for Adults in California

Trauma therapy San Diego

Healing and growth is a journey and a process. I believe we all inherently hold the keys and resources to achieve our greatest potential, but sometimes life’s stressors and past hurts get in the way of us connecting with that true potential. In individual therapy you work one on one with your therapist to look at symptoms and behaviors, current triggers, past traumatic experiences, and unresolved grief and loss, which may be getting in the way of you realizing your full potential.

It can be challenging to find the right therapist for your unique needs and unique situation. If you can relate to any of the following, I might be a great fit for you!

  • You’ve tried traditional talk therapy and it hasn’t worked for you.

  • You’re tired of feeling disconnected with your therapist because of differences in race and cultural backgrounds.

  • You would like to connect to a therapist who personally understands the complicated dynamics of being part of the queer community.

  • Compassion and reflective listening aren’t feeling like enough to help you make progress towards your goals.

  • You feel like you have expectations you can’t live up to and feel an overwhelming sense of pressure.

  • You experience feelings of doubt, overwhelm, frustration/irritability, worthlessness, and/or anxiety and it makes it hard to accomplish your goals.

  • You feel “stuck” and confused about who you truly are or want to be.

  • You’ve experienced the loss of a loved one (through death or the loss of a relationship) and you’re having trouble coping with the pain of the loss.

  • You find it difficult to communicate with others and to express your needs. The idea of expressing your needs brings up fear.

  • You’ve gone through traumatic experience/s and the effect/s of this has made it difficult to maintain work, school, hobbies, and relationships.

  • You’ve recently experienced a big transition in life (graduation/divorce/move) and are having a hard time adjusting to the change.

  • You’ve been working on your recovery and you recognize the need to process past wounds in order to avoid relapse.
