Grief and loss are a part of the human condition. Grief is typically considered to be brought on by the death of a loved one, but can also be triggered by any significant life-altering loss (such as a divorce or the loss of a job). Grief is a natural response to loss, but that doesn’t make it easy to deal with. Symptoms of grief may include sadness, loneliness, anger, denial, depression and a myriad of other thoughts and feelings. There is no “normal” amount of time for grief to pass, but if you find that your grief is not improving over time or that it is interfering with your everyday life, you may want to consider seeking professional help. A qualified grief counselor can help you to cope with the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive responses to loss. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s grief experts today.
Do you struggle with the belief that no matter what you do it won’t be good enough? Is it hard to say "no" to others because if they are upset with you, you will feel guilty? Maybe you walk on eggshells around others, scared to say the wrong thing so you shut down and don’t speak up? I help people like you learn what your needs are so you can advocate, build boundaries and thrive in your relationships.

I work with young adults and millennials who are tired of struggling with anxiety, depression, attachment, breakups and difficult family dynamics. If you feel as if you've lost a sense of connection to yourself, we'll work together to regain self-trust so that you can move confidently through life. My role is to assist in maximizing what is working and minimize what isn't while finding glimmers of joy along the way. Working with clients who are ready to step into their power is what I do best.

I strive to come from a place of compassion and empathy because, as humans, we all have patterns, messages, and lessons that show up in our lives. The more conscious and mindful we can become of these patterns, the more freedom we can have from them. My goal in therapy is to utilize evidence-based treatments to help you understand these themes so that you can gain the tools, insights, and skills necessary to live the life you want.

You're a people-pleaser, late-bloomer, self-explorer, or someone who values your inner life and wants to dive deeper. Adults who are creative, curious, and compassionate but struggle to apply those strengths to themselves consider me a good fit, as do those who crave relationships but find them to be more trouble than they're worth.

In West Hollywood, I help people who feel stuck, whether in anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions. My approach is warm, direct, and focused on depth of understanding that leads to lasting change. I have expertise in working with sexuality, gender identity, and discomfort with our body. Sometimes we feel like we don't fit with the world around us or even within ourselves. No matter where you’re starting, we’ll work together to help you move forward toward what you want.

My couples and individual clients have many varied backgrounds, professions, and world views. I consider my clients to be the experts on their own experiences as they teach me about their unique histories, cultures, orientations, and preferences. As a fine artist, I often work with creative clients such as artists, writers, directors, musicians, and actors. I look forward to learning about you and your own lived experiences.

I am passionate about supporting clients on their own journeys of self-exploration, reflection, and development through talk therapy. I’m also the founder of Collective Space Therapy, promoting and advocating emotional and mental health for all people and communities in San Diego.

Therapy is successful when you have a therapist who understands you AND knows how to help you. I work with men and women navigating relationships, marriage, anxiety/depression, major life transitions, and family conflicts, all while trying to integrate two very different cultures – the one we’re born into and the one we’re living in. As a South Asian woman and a therapist for over seven years, I understand how culture plays a huge role in our unique challenges and expectations.

If you're looking for a holistic and practical approach to healing, we are likely a good fit for each other! I often attract young adults who are struggling with feelings of anxiety, past trauma, and want to live a more meaningful life because I have struggled in these exact areas and have similar intentions myself. I value practicing what I preach and offer support in the ways that have been most helpful in my own life.

Being human is hard. When two different people, flaws and all, form a relationship, it’s harder. When those two decide that they want to swing with other couples, that can be even more complicated. Or perhaps they decide to open up their relationship on occasion. What are the boundaries? How about when those two humans become part of a triad, or quad? There might be some unique challenges with that choice as well. And jealousy! Navigating yours, and theirs, is not for the faint of heart.

Have you noticed that it's in the places you are supposed to be most relaxed (meditation, vacation, weekends, sleep) that your mind feels louder than ever? It might feel like the idea of letting your thoughts go is meant for “normal” people and that does not include you. Maybe you stand guard to keep yourself from your worst case, as if your attention to your thoughts keeps you from descending into unimaginable fear. I can help you sift through the noise and regain your confidence in yourself.

Lawyers, executives, and entrepreneurs find support and understanding in my practice. You've got a lot going on; your relationship is strained, or your anxiety is increasing. Maybe you and your partner are experiencing higher levels of conflict or disconnect. Maybe you've experienced a recent loss or traumatic event. Or maybe you feel unsatisfied with your life, despite having "everything" you want. Whatever brings you to therapy, I'll be your engaged partner in working through it.

Curious, motivated maybe knowing but not quite expressing what you envision for yourself and/or your partner(s).I love working with folks who are wanting more eroticism, fun, desire, change, more or different in your sexual life.

My clients are vibrant, intelligent individuals who sometimes face challenges regulating their emotions, controlling their impulses, maintaining their relationships, and being compassionate toward themselves. I also see people who struggle with overthinking, mood fluctuations, and low self-esteem. Often, folks reach out after losing a loved one (companion animals included), or in the midst of a conflict or transition.

I work best with clients who want to explore their experiences and seek meaningful change, even if the path forward feels unclear.
