THERAPY THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE
support through life’s changes
Individual Therapy for Women Navigating Life’s Unexpected Changes
I offer 50-minute individual therapy sessions tailored to your unique needs and experiences, with availability Monday–Thursday. I work with women navigating chronic illness, life-altering injury, caregiving, grief, anxiety, and major life transitions. Sessions are available in person in Pomona, California, or virtually throughout California via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform.
In-person therapy
In-person sessions take place at my office in Pomona, California, just 4 minutes from downtown Claremont in the Inland Empire. Meeting in person can provide a grounded, private space to slow down, connect, and focus on what you’re carrying.
Telehealth therapy
Telehealth therapy offers the same individualized support with the added flexibility of attending sessions from the comfort of your own space. It can be especially helpful when you’re balancing work, school, parenting, caregiving, health needs, or other responsibilities.
To participate in telehealth, you’ll need a private space, a reliable Wi-Fi connection, and a device with a camera, such as a laptop, tablet, or phone.
Are My Therapy Services For You?
Living with chronic illness or a life-altering injury, or supporting someone you love through illness, disability, or aging, can change your sense of normalcy, identity, and what you imagined your life would look like. You may be navigating grief, anxiety, uncertainty, emotional exhaustion, caregiver burnout, changes in relationships, or difficulty finding space for yourself.
Whether you’re living with a chronic illness or life-altering injury yourself, or you’re a parent, partner, spouse, sibling, adult child, or caregiver supporting someone you love, therapy can offer a space to process what you’re carrying and feel understood in the midst of it. Together, we’ll explore what has changed, what you need, and what moving forward can look like for you.
SUPPORT FOR THE ROLE YOU’RE NAVIGATING

When you’re navigating changes in your own health
Living with chronic illness or a life-altering injury can change far more than your physical health. You may be adjusting to a new diagnosis, changes in independence, shifts in identity, uncertainty about the future, or a relationship with your body that feels different than it once did. You may be grieving the life you imagined while also trying to figure out what your life can look like now. Therapy provides space to process these changes, reconnect with yourself, and navigate the emotional weight of a life that may look different than you expected.

When someone you love is navigating illness, disability, injury, mental illness, or aging
When someone you love is navigating a medical condition, disability, injury, mental illness, or aging, their experience can affect your life, too. You may be a caregiver, spouse, partner, parent, sibling, or adult child, or you may simply be someone deeply impacted by what your loved one is going through. You may be carrying grief, anxiety, guilt, resentment, uncertainty, or the emotional weight of watching someone you love struggle. Therapy provides a space to process your experience, understand how it has affected you, and make room for your own needs alongside your love for them.
The Spouse or Partner
A partner’s illness, injury, or disability can change the dynamics of a relationship in ways you never expected. You may be navigating caregiving responsibilities alongside intimacy, communication, shared responsibilities, and your own emotional needs. Therapy can provide space to process grief and uncertainty while exploring how to stay connected to yourself and your relationship through these changes.
The Adult Child
Supporting a parent who is sick, injured, or aging can bring a complicated mix of love, responsibility, guilt, grief, and fear. You may feel caught between caring for your parent, managing your own household and relationships, and trying to maintain a life of your own. Therapy can help you process these emotions, navigate boundaries, and find a way to support your parent without losing yourself in the process.
The Sibling
A sibling’s illness, injury, disability, or significant life change can affect you even when you aren’t the primary caregiver. You may experience grief, guilt, resentment, fear, or a sense that your own emotions have been overlooked. Therapy can provide space to process the ways your sibling’s experience has affected you and your family while making room for your own life, needs, and relationships.
