Hi, it’s nice to meet you! Whatever reason you are here I want to welcome you, because beginning therapy is not always an easy process. I am a Clinical Psychologist (PSY29465) offering video telehealth throughout California and I strive to help clients reach their goals using warmth, compassion, and collaboration. I enjoy working with clients who are seeking assistance for a variety of needs, including, trauma, different types of stressors and anxiety, and depression. I also have a special interest in working with veterans, active duty military, and their families.

Do you feel alone and overwhelmed? Are you worried about burdening your loved ones, or dissatisfied with the support they provide? Do you want a new perspective and a professional opinion on things? Are you challenged by managing the responsibilities of work, relationship, and family? Do you long for space for yourself, to notice and express what you’re feeling and thinking? Do you want support to reflect on your circumstances, think through the options you may have, and take steps toward change in your life?

Are you a midlife woman who feels anxious & frustrated even though your life looks like it checks off all the “boxes”? Have you mastered looking like you’ve got it “all-together” yet deep down you fear being found out as “not-good-enough”? You have dedicated years of your life to meeting other’s needs. You have tried to live up to the many “shoulds” imposed on you by society. You ought to feel on top of the world & yet on the inside you feel burnt out, frustrated & numb. Your overthinking, worrying & negative thoughts routinely hijack your inner peace and joy. It’s been a long time since you’ve thought about what YOU need or want.

You don't need to struggle alone. With Mindfulness-based Therapy, you will have an opportunity to develop your awareness and inner strength to cope with your challenges.

Hello, I’m Tessa! I believe that everyone's stories should be heard, their experiences valued, and their strengths recognized. My hope is to create an environment where you feel a deep sense of safety, understanding, and trust. My therapy approach is informed by my personal identities as a biracial Latinx cisgender female with a large blended family. My practice has been deeply enriched by working alongside youth and adults from diverse backgrounds navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, loss, and parenthood.

We all find ourselves at times where we feel lost and confused. Things in our lives may not be going the way we want or we may find ourselves coming up against repeated stumbling blocks in certain areas of our lives. I believe that therapy can help us reconnect to parts of ourselves that we have forgotten about or lost track of. Having these parts back on board helps us to find deeper connection with ourselves, others and the world around us and leads to greater life fulfillment.

When you are struggling individually or in your relationships, it can be hard to know where to begin, and harder at times to believe that getting what you need is even possible. You may have feelings you don't understand, experiences that you are trying to make sense of, or patterns that you feel stuck in. Your experiences and feelings are worthy of our curiosity and consideration. Through our conversations together, the therapy process can help us get to know you better, and open up possibilities for deepening understanding, compassion, connection, and resilience in your life.

My approach as a psychotherapist is to meet my clients where they are, honoring their unique life experiences, offering strategies and responses that address their specific needs. I understand psychotherapy as a collaborative process. I practice listening deeply, with curiosity and respect, to support my clients’ innate capacity for self-awareness, growth, and well-being. Effective therapy requires authentic contact between therapist and client.  I am a fellow traveler, working on my own growth and transformation, while in service to my clients.

As a therapist, I enjoy cultivating authentic relationships with clients and learning about the communities in which you both thrive in and have endured pain in. I’m curious about how you connect with others and how your past experiences impact your relationships and the energy you carry every day. Cross-cultural differences, family systems, and past trauma can make navigating our interpersonal relationships messy and cloud our thoughts. We’ll explore your narrative and the lens through which you see yourself to better understand and rebuild your relationship with yourself and others.

Are you struggling? Feeling overwhelmed? Stuck? Have you noticed patterns in your life you want to change? Feeling defeated by obstacles to your goals? Are you worried about how you are feeling inside? Is something in your life affecting your ability to be happy or successful or in a relationship?

Speaking to an experienced therapist can help you find the path from where you are to where you want to be.
