Like the phoenix that rises from the ashes, the fire poppy blooms from it.  Fire poppies are a unique and rare native California plant that are found after there’s been a wildfire.  Their seeds begin to germinate after being exposed to fire and from there bloom into a brilliant fluorescent orange flower. 

Our most challenging times don’t have to be the end of something, they can be a catalyst for an inner greatness that we have had dormant and forgotten about.  Let’s work together to use these personal wildfires as an opportunity to not just grow, but thrive and radiate.

**As of September 1, 2023 I AM accepting new clients and am seeing clients via telehealth and in-person in Santa Clara.**

• Is your teen capable of so much more academically, yet you feel like they’re stuck and distracted by other things going on around them?

• Does it feel like your connection with your child is lessening each academic year and you understand them less and less?

• Have you found it difficult to navigate the pre-teen or teenage years in our current, changing, and technology heavy society?

• Are you and your teen arguing more and listening to each other less?

• Do you have a specific type of job that often places you in dangerous situations and you have a family back home?

• Is it difficult to be in-tune with your family and yourself after a multi-day shift at the station?

  If any of these resonate, let’s chat!

I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute video chat with me to see if I’m the right fit for your therapy needs and personal goals.

Starting therapy for the first time or with a new person can feel nerve-wracking , awkward, and many other feelings too.  My hope is that you can get an idea about how I work as a therapist so you feel comfortable.  I also want to make sure I can learn a little about what your goals are so I can ensure I have the right tools to support you in the ways you deserve.
