Individual Therapy in Pasadena, CA
Compassionate, Collaborative Care for Your Healing Journey
You Don’t Have to Carry It All Alone
Life can feel heavy. Maybe you’re finding yourself regularly feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck. Maybe you’re moving through a major life transition, facing burnout, or struggling with relationship patterns. Individual therapy in Pasadena can give you the space to breathe, reflect, and begin again.
I specialize in supporting adults who are navigating:
- Stress, anxiety, or burnout
- Depression or emotional numbness
- Relationship and attachment wounds
- Chronic self-criticism or perfectionism
- Trauma and dissociation
- Binge eating and body shame
- Religious or spiritual deconstruction
- Creativity blocks and high-performance fatigue
Even if you can’t name exactly what feels “off,” therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and we can figure it out together. If you’re feeling it’s time for support, I’m here for you.
How Individual Therapy Helps
Our work together is grounded in building a therapeutic relationship that prioritizes safety, collaboration, and respect. I offer a relational, deep approach that combines proven therapeutic modalities to help you heal and grow:
- Attachment Theory – to help us understand how early relationships impact current patterns and needs
- Parts Work (Internal Family Systems, Ego States) – to explore inner conflicts and promote self-compassion and integration
- EMDR Therapy – to support healing from trauma, stuck beliefs, or overwhelming past experiences that intrude on your daily life or that you actively avoid
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – to deepen your connection to your emotions and unmet needs in a gentle way
- Polyvagal Theory & Somatic Therapies – to support nervous system regulation and help you feel more connected to and grounded in your body
Individual therapy isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about building a more curious, kind, and connected relationship with yourself, so you can approach life’s challenges with clarity and ease.
You’re Not Broken
The symptoms you’re experiencing are not failures and do not mean that something is wrong with you. They are usually ways your mind and body have worked to protect you throughout your life. In therapy, we’ll slow down, create safety for exploring these experiences, and listen deeply to what your emotions and behaviors are trying to tell you.
This work isn’t easy, but it can be truly life-changing.
