As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Clinical Sexologist, I believe in empowering my clients and setting themselves up for success by teaching them the tools they need to improve their happiness, inner peace, and fulfillment. I have been practicing for over 16 years, but have shifted my focus in the last several years to work with adults who struggle with relationships/intimacy, trauma, and anxiety.

Therapist

Life's biggest transitions rarely come with a manual: becoming a parent, rebuilding after a breakup, stepping into adulthood, figuring out who you are next. I'm Tabitha, and for 10 years I've supported teens and adults through exactly these moments, including the anxiety and identity questions that come with them. I see family changes and relationship shifts not as problems to fix, but as chapters you can move through with support, and I'd like to help you write the next one.

Therapist

Virtual • California


You’re doing everything “right”—staying active, showing up for others, pushing through—but you’re still stuck in your head. You overthink everything. You’re constantly anxious, tense, and on edge. Maybe you feel like you’re always performing—for your team, your job, your family—and you’re tired of carrying it all.

I specialize in working with athletes and active adults who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, and people-pleasing. Together, we create a space where you can finally breathe, feel grounded, and build emotional strength to match your physical drive.

My approach combines CBT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and solution-focused strategies through my signature T.H.R.I.V.E. Method. We’ll work together to untangle old patterns, reconnect with your body, and build clarity and confidence from the inside out.

If you’re ready to feel more present, powerful, and mentally strong, I’d be honored to support you.
