Aging brings change.

Some changes are welcome, while others can feel overwhelming, lonely, or difficult to manage. You may be coping with anxiety, depression, grief, health concerns, retirement, family stress, caregiving responsibilities, or simply trying to adjust to a new stage of life. Therapy can provide a safe place to slow down, reflect, and find support.

I work with adults 55+ and caregivers across California who want relief from emotional stress and practical tools they can use in everyday life. My approach is kind, compassionate, direct, and collaborative. I believe healing happens when people feel safe enough to be honest about what they are experiencing — without fear of judgment.

In our work together, you do not have to “have it all figured out.” We will move at a pace that feels comfortable for you while also helping you take meaningful steps forward. My role is to guide, support, educate, and encourage you. You are the expert on your life, and lasting change happens through the work we do together.

    • Solution-Focused Therapy: Focuses on strengths, goals, and practical steps toward change.

  • Mindfulness & Strengths

    • Mindfulness-Based Techniques: Helps calm the mind, reduce stress, and stay grounded in the present moment.

    • Strengths-Based Therapy: Builds on the resilience, wisdom, and life experience you already have.

  • Trauma Informed

    Trauma-Informed Care: Creates a safe, respectful environment that honors your experiences and emotional needs.

What You Can Expect in Therapy

My goal is for you to feel heard, respected, and supported. Together, we will work to:

  • Understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck

  • Learn tools to manage anxiety, stress, and difficult emotions

  • Build confidence in setting boundaries and asking for support

  • Strengthen coping skills during life transitions

  • Reconnect with meaning, purpose, and the things that matter most to you

Therapy is not about “fixing” you. It is about helping you feel more supported, capable, and connected as you move through this season of life.
