Individual Therapy · Westlake Village & Online
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy offers a place to slow down and listen more carefully to what is happening beneath the surface of your life.
You may be functioning well externally while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, ashamed, or uncertain about what comes next. You may recognize recurring patterns but find that understanding them has not been enough to change them.
Together, we may explore your current circumstances, earlier experiences, relationships, emotional patterns, protective strategies, bodily responses, and the meanings you have made from what you have lived through.
Together, we may explore
- Current circumstances
- Earlier experiences
- Relationships
- Emotional patterns
- Protective strategies
- Bodily responses
- The meanings you have made
Individual therapy may support you with
Trauma and stress
- Trauma and post-traumatic stress responses
- Anxiety and chronic nervous-system activation
- Emotional overwhelm or shutdown
- Disconnection from emotions or bodily experience
Loss and change
- Grief and complicated loss
- Major life transitions
- Identity and belonging
- Questions of meaning, spirituality, and purpose
Relationships and self
- Relationship concerns
- Family-of-origin dynamics
- Shame and harsh self-criticism
- Boundaries and people-pleasing
Focused and practical
or a combination of both
Exploratory and depth-oriented
I offer individual therapy for adults 18 and older in Westlake Village and online throughout California. Individual sessions are $200 for 50 minutes. My practice is private pay. A consultation can help us explore whether this approach fits what you are seeking.
You can also learn about my weekly grief groups.
