Depth Therapy in Newport Beach & FULLERTON, CA
Underneath the noise, there's a version of you waiting to be known.
I help people uncover the roots of their anxiety, emotional disconnection, & relationship struggles so they can move through life with deeper connection, authenticity, & creativity.
Maybe anxiety runs in the background no matter how much they accomplish. Maybe relationships keep hitting the same wall. Maybe there's a low-level feeling of disconnection they can't explain.
You're managing. You're showing up. From the outside, things probably look fine, maybe even good. But underneath, something feels off. In the quiet, the nudge doesn't let up, even when there's nothing obviously wrong. The same patterns keep showing up in your relationships, no matter how many times you talk it through with yourself. You want something more. You need space to actually understand what's happening, so you can stop just managing and start living differently.
You might be here because
Relationships, romantic or otherwise, that keep hitting the same wall
Past experiences that still shape you in ways you can't quite see clearly
Work success feels hollow, and you're questioning what really matters
Anxiety is eating up your peace of mind, even when everything looks "fine" on paper
A sense of disconnection from yourself or your life that's hard to name but hard to ignore
You notice that it's difficult to connect in the way you're craving to or express yourself, your needs, or what you really want
You are experiencing communication breakdowns with a partner and feel like you’re speaking different languages
You’re preparing for marriage and seeking premarital counseling to explore your attachment histories and expectations before beginning a lifelong commitment
We won't just talk about the problem. We'll get curious about where it came from.
Many of the people I work with come to therapy when their best attempts to change on their own aren’t working. While tools can be helpful, they don’t always get to the heart of what’s really going on. My work focuses on meaningful, lasting change. Once you get the deep, personalized support you need to heal and change, everything else changes, too.
The work we do together is depth-oriented, which means we're not just looking at what's happening on the surface. We slow down and look at why. Where do these feelings and patterns come from? What do your reactions actually mean? What are you living out that you didn't consciously choose?
The goal is to help you notice the patterns that may be holding you back, understand how they affect your relationships and choices, and free you to inhabit your life in a way that feels truer to who you are and the life you want. By connecting more deeply with your story, your emotions, and the people around you, you can begin to live with a greater sense of freedom, authenticity, and meaning.
This kind of work takes time. The understanding you develop isn't something you use for a few months and set aside. It becomes part of how you know yourself. People come out of this work with a different relationship to their own mind: more clarity, less reactivity, and more freedom and flexibility.
Hi, I’m
I believe getting to know yourself, really know yourself, is one of the most worthwhile things you'll ever do. Not the version of you that shows up for everyone else, but the one shaped by your history, your relationships, your story so far.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and engaged. I value spending the time it takes to get to know and understand you, and helping you understand yourself. Together, we’ll create space to make connections, find out what healing looks like for you, and foster a deeper connection to yourself, your story, and what truly matters to you.
