Navigate Life's Challenges with Individual Therapy
Life Moves Fast—And It Can Feel Like You’re Struggling to Keep Up
Between work, home, and everything in-between, life can seem like a never-ending to-do list. You might be struggling to sleep, constantly preoccupied by thoughts, or feeling a sense of worry that never quite goes away. Relationships can become strained as you find yourself more irritable, impatient, or even avoiding people altogether. And in the rare moments of downtime, you're too restless to relax or too distracted to notice the good things. It’s like you can never catch a break.
Therapy is your time to pause, reflect, and reset.
Relief from Constant Pressure
Do you hold yourself to impossible standards, constantly striving to do more or be better? You might spend your days replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or bracing for what could go wrong. Despite all your efforts, that nagging voice of “not enough” is still there.
Therapy can help you quiet the inner critic, let go of self-doubt, and stop chasing perfection.
Support for Givers and Caretakers
If you’re the person everyone leans on—whether as a caregiver, helping professional, or friend—you might find yourself exhausted and resentful, yet filled with guilt whenever you say “no”. Over time, it can feel like you’re losing yourself.
Therapy can help you build boundaries that honor your needs and reclaim a sense of balance.
Available in flexible online sessions or with restorative walk-and-talk therapy.

⋮ Common Questions About Therapy
-
Therapy is completely individually-focused, which means everyone will get something different from it. Your current life circumstances, your history of experiences, and your insights and perspectives will shape your unique sessions.
Therapy can address specific needs in the short term or be a regular practice for ongoing personal growth. In either case, therapy isn’t meant to be a quick fix or a passive activity where you are told what to do; it’s a participatory process, so the more you engage, the more you’ll benefit. Ultimately, it’s about applying what you learn to your daily life.

Open to all California residents, online sessions, also called telehealth therapy, allow us to connect through secure video conferencing. Online sessions can be just as effective as in-person sessions, offering a convenient way to receive support and care from the comfort of your own home or any private space where you feel safe. All you need is a device with a camera and microphone (like a computer, tablet, or smartphone) and a stable internet connection.
For Bay Area residents craving a break from screens, consider the option of walk-and-talk therapy sessions.
