Therapist

Virtual • California


I grew up in a small town in Hawaii, then came to Southern California and began studying psychology in 2001. I completed my master’s degree at Fuller School of Psychology in 2010 and served children and families at a community mental health agency for 10 years, also starting a private practice in 2015. While I loved island life, I’ve put down roots here through friendships, involvement in my community, and my love of LA’s cultural diversity.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Yucca Valley

Searching for therapists in Yucca Valley starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and therapy styles that connect to your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s profile can also show what sessions may feel like, how they describe their approach, and which concerns they work with most often.

In a smaller community like Yucca Valley, local appointment options may be more limited than in nearby areas like Palm Springs or the broader Coachella Valley. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in California. You may also want to filter by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before you book can help you compare communication style, specialties, and scheduling fit in one place.

Therapy in Yucca Valley can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can review therapist profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
