Online Therapy in California
Flexible, trauma-informed therapy for adultsanywhere in California, from the comfort and convenience of home.
What Online Therapy with me looks like
In our work together, we focus on understanding what’s underneath current distress—not just managing symptoms, but exploring where patterns come from and how they show up in your life today. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and grounded in cultural awareness. I integrate EMDR-informed therapy when appropriate, especially for clients working through trauma, chronic stress, or difficult past experiences. Sessions are collaborative and paced with care. You don’t have to come in with the “right words” or a clear plan—just a willingness to begin where you are.
What I help with
Online therapy may be a good fit if you are experiencing:
Anxiety or chronic overwhelm
Trauma or past experiences that still feel present
Difficulty setting boundaries or prioritizing yourself
Burnout or emotional exhaustion
Identity-related stress or life transitions
Feeling disconnected from yourself or others
Who I work with
I primarily provide online therapy for adults across California. I work with teens in person at my Eagle Rock office, with limited exceptions for virtual sessions.
First-generation and Latine clients
People navigating complex family dynamics
Those impacted by trauma, systemic stress, or cultural expectations
Why online therapy
Online therapy can offer flexibility and accessibility while still creating a meaningful, connected therapeutic relationship.
For many clients, being in their own space allows for a different kind of comfort and consistency in showing up for themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
You will need a phone, tablet, or computer with a stable internet connection and a private space where you can speak comfortably. Headphones can provide additional privacy but are not required. Before beginning, it can also help to silence notifications and have water, tissues, or anything else that helps you feel settled nearby.
-
Yes. EMDR can be provided through online therapy using forms of bilateral stimulation adapted for virtual sessions. We begin with preparation and grounding, and we decide together whether online EMDR feels appropriate and manageable for you. EMDR is always optional and can be integrated with other forms of trauma-informed therapy.
-
I generally work with teens in person at my Eagle Rock office. In my experience, it can be harder to build the rapport, trust, and sense of connection that teen therapy requires through a screen, so I strongly prefer meeting with teens in person. I may consider online sessions in limited circumstances for an established client or when there is a specific need, but virtual therapy is not my standard format for teens.
