I provide specialized care to address unique challenges of Silicon Valley families, executives coping with burnout and the LGBT+ community with an eye toward inclusion, non-judgment and sex-positivity.

Kristina Gianola

Those who have experienced hardships in life struggle to believe in their worthiness of being seen. These events can leave you with long lasting emotional disruptions or difficulty in developing safe relationships. You may also struggle with moving from your cognitive mind into your emotional mind because you've never felt safe. You shouldn't have to look at life through the lens of distrust and pain any longer, and I want to help you break these filters down for good.

Shameless Mama Wellness

Are you a new mom struggling with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, or intrusive thoughts? Has a traumatic childbirth left you feeling disconnected from your baby? Birth trauma can cause symptoms of PTSD, and giving birth and having a new baby can lead to very painful mental health struggles. Many new moms can feel guilt and shame as a result and many have thoughts they feel they need to keep hidden. A Postpartum Therapist can help you make sense of it all.

I am here to help.

I help my clients take control of their life story and create the narrative they want for themselves.

You find yourself wondering how it is possible to be in a relationship and feel so alone. No matter how hard you try to connect with your partner, the two of you just seem to keep missing each other. You miss the fun the two of you used to have, you miss the times when the two of you used to talk so easily. Working with a trained couples therapist can help you to get back on track with your relationship. It is possible to heal, grow and have fulfilling relationships.

Diana Saxton

I want to work with clients who are ready and willing to work hard. I believe that everyone has the potential to heal and grow, and my role as a therapist is to help facilitate that process. It can be difficult to begin to open up and work on pain that has harmed us for so long. Clients that understand that challenges may arise, and the process may be uncomfortable at times. In order to create meaningful progress, they are willing to contribute to the development of the therapeutic relationship

If you have a desire for meaningful & lasting change that comes from deep within, let's talk. My clients are diverse & unique, but most seek me out when their intuition tells them it's time to face the unknowns that have hindered their efforts to become the best version of themselves. Grounded by our safe and authentic therapeutic relationship, my clients feel able to move through trauma & stuck places, and into inner liberation & healing they can take into daily life.
