LGBT therapists in Sacramento, CA

You may be seeking support in moving toward a more preferred version of yourself, your life, and your relationships. You may be questioning important facets of your identity, or wondering how to locate and uproot the seeds of painful and complicated emotions. Perhaps you are curious about navigating a different type of relational structure with your loved ones, or you may be feeling stuck with a particular challenge in the way you connect to others. My role as a therapist is to provide support and facilitate insight that will allow you to work toward your personal goals.

H.E.R.O.E.S. Therapy (Helping Each-other Recognize Our Extraordinary Selves) offers a fun & creative way to explore mental health through popular culture, and gain skills needed to fight the villians and monsters that haunt all of us. If you identify as a nerd, geek, introvert, outcast, weirdo, etc., I am here for you. We'll discuss favorite characters from books, movies, shows, video games, & social media. We will play alongside each other and use real-world moments to gain insight into behavior, emotions, sensations, & thoughts.

I've been a licensed LMFT in Sacramento, CA. for over 40 years. My primary education was at California State University, Sacramento, but have received extensive training in other areas that include, but not limited to: PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Domestic Violence, Grief, Family Systems and interpersonal relationships. I have vast experience with diverse populations, cultures within unique mental health settings and situations. Historically I have worked with young children and teens, but my areas of focus have shifted to young adults, afults, and seniors in areas of Depression, PTSD, and interpersonal relationships with individuals and couples.

Are you struggling to have harmony in your relationships? Does having ease in your life seem like a far-fetched dream? Are you feeling overwhelmed with the state of the world and all you have to do? Welcome, you're in the right place! I have been in your shoes and the first (or twenty) step is always the hardest. As someone who has learned to balance multiple cultures, I know what it can feel like to straddle various parts of your identity. I have first hand experienced feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, and at a complete loss for how to navigate the intensity of my emotions. This has informed my practice and work with clients where I strongly believe that our emotions guide us to understanding ourselves in a new light. Asking for help can be difficult, especially in a culture that values productivity over personality.

Thanks for considering me as your therapist. I have many years of experience and genuinely love working with people to increase insight, improve communication, and survive the Trump years! I enjoy working with people of all ages and life stages, but I'm particularly a specialist in women's issues, working with teens and young adults, and members of the LGBT community.
