Do you have big feelings? Me too. In fact, my experience with big feelings is the reason I became a California therapist. I understand the challenges of being a highly sensitive person or an empath. I know what it's like when your emotions take the wheel and threaten to spin your life out of control. Spoiler alert: emotions are NOT ideal drivers.

There are 17,890 therapists in California– it does feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. Especially when you are suffering from symptoms of depression or anxiety about relationships and haven't been out of your night pajamas for the last three days. Don’t lose hope. I’ve got your back.

If you’re still struggling with the aftermath of trauma, know that you’re not alone. Up to 70% of adults in the U.S. have experienced a traumatic event in their lifetime. Taking the initiative to seek therapy is a courageous first move. Nevertheless, it doesn’t come without difficulty. There are many trauma-informed therapists and therapeutic methods to choose from, and treatment isn’t one-size-fits-all.
