Individual Therapy in Livermore, CA + Online

Therapy Focused on You

I help people in Livermore and throughout California who are navigating chronic pain, persistent dizziness, chronic illness, medical trauma, anxiety or depression - as well as major life transitions - feel more empowered and connected with themselves and their loved ones. I’ve spent over ten years working alongside a variety of healthcare professionals and I co-facilitated the ARISE Program for Persistent Pain and Dizziness at Stanford Health Care Tri-Valley. If having a therapist who understands healthcare systems and can help you bridge care is part of what you need, let’s talk about it.

Frequently, there’s a full range of emotions and experiences that come with living with a chronic condition, whether you’re the person experiencing that condition or the well person in the relationship. Having a space to name and talk about your experiences can be helpful.
