Healing starts with you

If you struggle with…

  • Self-expression
  • Knowing how you’re feeling
  • Identifying the physical manifestation of emotions in your body
  • Bottling up or avoiding unpleasant, uncomfortable emotions
  • Communicating your needs, feelings, or wants
  • Making or keeping friends 
  • Romantic relationships and intimacy
  • Family dynamics 
  • Video game, porn, phone, or social media addiction
  • Lack of motivation and focus at work 
  • Declining work performance
  • Avoidance of important issues at work or in your personal life
  • Feeling isolated, lost, lonely, anxious, or depressed
  • Self-loathing, self-doubt
  • Crippling fear of failure and intense shame

Together, you can learn how to…

  • Express yourself 
  • Have a healthy relationship
  • Make (and keep) friends
  • Allow yourself to experience challenging emotions to instill a sense of agency
  • Regulate your own nervous system
  • Draw boundaries in relationships that honor yourself
  • Introspect
  • Exercise self-compassion 
  • How to cope with the hardships inherent to life
  • Communicate in a way that balances kindness and authenticity
  • How to witness yourself in your own truth
  • Disentangle from over-identifying with thoughts, emotions, and experiences
  • How to accept and integrate challenging experiences from the past to become tomorrow’s wisdom

In our work together, you’ll learn to healthily express your needs, develop healthier coping mechanisms (so you’re not avoiding your life and numbing out) and build healthy self-esteem so you feel good about yourself and seek experiences that affirm your self-worth.

Making some of these changes may feel impossible to achieve, but I know from firsthand experience that it is possible. There is a better way to live your life.  

Therapy in the Bay Area can give you the tools to address these issues with empathy and compassion. 

Men's Issues

Men’s therapy in the Bay Area offers a confidential, supportive environment where you can explore your personal issues, judgment-free.

Anxiety & Self Esteem

Therapy for self-esteem in the Bay Area will teach you to rewrite the negative story you’ve crafted about yourself.

Depression

Anxiety and depression often go hand-in-hand. Think of it as a cycle. You feel anxious in a social situation because you lack self-confidence. Later, you berate yourself for what you said or did. Shame and depression set in — and the cycle starts all over again.

Internet Addiction

I offer judgment-free therapy for people seeking to regain control over their internet and technology use. Internet addiction isn’t currently recognized as a diagnosis by the DSM-V, but I believe it’s one of the most important concerns of our digital age.

  • Able to take action to achieve value-aligned goals
  • Overcoming social anxiety
  • Building healthy, nurturing relationships
  • Focusing better at work 
  • Less depressed and less anxious
  • Reaching for new or forgotten hobbies that spark joy
  • More confident and self-assured
  • Kinder and more compassionate to themselves and others

I believe these things are possible for you too.
