Coaching Therapists in Irvine, CA

For individuals challenged with developing motivation, it is beneficial to strengthen clarity, drive, and accountability. In today’s environment, the list of reasons for not moving forward with personal goals seems endless, and often times justifiable. Suggestion provided by others often times result in feelings of rejection. Conversely, the ability to reframe personal thoughts, feelings, and concerns into relevant goals results in stimulation and even excitement.

Do you desire a meaningful relationship with yourself and others? Are life challenges impacting your quality of life? If so, you are not alone and therapy can provide you with the guidance and support needed to move toward mental, physical, and emotional balance for a healthier more successful life. I believe creating a strong therapeutic relationship is of paramount importance in the process of change and a key ingredient towards your progress in therapy. While being supportive, I’ll also challenge you to acknowledge and confront unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviors that are interfering with your personal goals.

If you feel stuck in old patterns, it may seem impossible to free yourself. Today is the day. All you need to start the therapy process is the willingness to make that first contact.

I believe in the innate ability of my clients to transform themselves, their relationships, and their lives. Everyone encounters challenges whether it's depression, anxiety, loss, failed relationships, compulsions, or past traumas.

Depression, anxiety, family/relationship difficulties, stress management, school/job-related issues...

This may not be an easy time in your life and I respect your courage to reach out for help. Hiding fear of failure or family pressure to be perfect and make it look effortless is a daily struggle. I know you can be overwhelmed. Frustrated and angry. I have lived it and have decades of experience. After facing the pressure from parents, peers, or yourself, you need a place to sort out who you are and how you fit into these pieces. You may be looking for a safe place to work through your challenges, such as when you are experiencing anxiety or depression, or even a unique cultural experience that you feel nobody understands.

I believe that life ebbs and flows with the changes of life's demands. Many of these changes are positive ones, but at times hardships can follow, needing assistance and guidance in finding solutions. This is where the therapeutic process can help in alleviating your symptoms, bringing about new energy and happiness in enjoying life's many adventures. My enjoyment in the therapeutic process is one of discovery and collaboration in identifying difficulties and solutions to the patient's problems. Above all, I believe the relationship between the patient and therapist is the cornerstone to achieving the patient's goals.

There is hope and healing – it is never too late. I am a safe place to tell your story and explore new ways of being. I can help you uncover the toxic cycles and unproductive patterns that are keeping you from living your best life. Issues like low self-esteem, conflicted relationships, life transitions and personal losses can make you feel alone, sad and uncertain about the future. Or maybe you feel stuck, anxious and stressed because you make the same mistakes over and over again. I can provide a sanctuary where you are heard, supported and grow to become the person you are meant to be.

A bridge uncrossed is like a life never lived; a door never opened; a gift never given; a love never shared. Do your challenges paralyze you from moving forward? Working with me will enable you to identify your innate strengths and coping skills to take steps forward. With support and new found insight, you will cross your own bridge to enhanced wellbeing, effective communication, more meaningful and satisfying relationships and work, and ultimately, a more purposeful life.

All of us have problems during various seasons of our lives and could benefit from some additional assistance. Most people who enter counseling are well-functioning, competent individuals who are seeking help with difficult problems in their everyday life. Relationship conflicts, job stress, financial worries, emotional concerns, and family difficulties are common in our complicated, fast-paced world. Sometimes just trying to balance all of the demands in our lives can be too much to handle and leave us feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, frustrated, or lonely.

Has trauma, anxiety, or depression interfered with the potential to become the best version of yourself? We often feel defined by traumatic or emotionally difficult experiences then often leave us feeling stuck in place rather than moving forward towards our goals. I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space for you to develop an understanding of yourself to overcome past experiences or fears that define you. Our work together will be met with unconditional acceptance, creative approaches, and the utmost compassion.

I work with those that are looking to find better ways to handle interpersonal challenges and navigate life changes more effectively. My approach is fairly straightforward, I talk to people like they are people.

Have you lost the intimacy in your relationship? Are you miscommunicating with your partner, or have you stopped communicating at all? Or, maybe you feel like your relationship is stagnant, and not moving in the direction that you'd like it to. If so, I am a psychologist who has successfully worked with many couples going through these stages. I use mindfulness, which helps couples to stop judging and to start communicating again. Change and progress is usually possible from the first session, but it all depends on each partner's willingness to take a step back and re-assess.
