My approach in therapy is collaborative, supportive, and goal oriented.

As clinical psychologists, we understand that your life can be complex. There are various demands and expectations at different life stages that can be impacted by situational and mental health struggles. It's important to be mindful of the interaction between those demands and your stage of life. For example, you may be an adult feeling overwhelmed with anxiety worrying about aging parents while managing your spouse and children's needs. Your needs in this scenario would be different than an anxious adolescent trying to cope with school, friendship, and family demands. We recognize and respect that people have individual needs throughout the lifespan and we want to work closely and collaboratively with you to ensure that you reach your goals to a richer and more satisfying life.

I am currently providing emotional support for individuals struggling with COVID-19 challenges through videoteletherapy sessions. The foundation of my psychotherapy practice comes from a strong belief in the importance of building a trusting therapeutic relationship. My practice is based on an integrated approach, utilizing clinical models that are best for the client, helping them to make positive changes, find and cultivate their strengths, meet their goals, and relieve distress. I will engage with clients in a supportive and non-judgmental manner, and work collaboratively. Working with clients who are open to becoming more self aware and improving their lives, motivates my work. My specialties are treating anxiety, stress, depressive symptoms, sports performance issues, eating issues, relational & parenting issues and trauma. With many years of clinical experience, I have the skills and expertise to help clients view their issues in a new way, and support them in nurturing a more active, positive attitude to create change. I work in an integrated health facility, LA PALESTRA Center for Preventative Medicine, where exercise and medical professionals work together. You can feel comfortable and part of a wellness center which promotes improving the quality of people's lives though supporting one's mental and physical health. My current availability is on weekdays for sessions.

I focus on creating a safe and inviting environment for clients who may have difficulty expressing themselves. I support clients by integrating art therapy and psychotherapy. This approach enhances your confidence, allowing you to better cope with anxieties, challenging behavior patterns, and the stresses of everyday life.

Are you suffering from depression and anxiety or dealing with trauma, grief, or relationship issues? Do you have a sense of emotional overwhelm that leaves you feeling empty and exhausted? Are you dealing with chronic health issues of your own or a loved one? Have the stresses of your life disconnected you from the joy you were once able to feel? The stresses of human existence can become too much to handle on your own. It is in these times that you need the support of a professional. I am a Licensed Psychotherapist, Registered Yoga Teacher, and Ayurveda Lifestyle Counselor. My unique blend of healing modalities called Holistic Integrated Psychotherapy brings a rich tapestry of knowledge to the therapeutic relationship. Merging traditional psychotherapy with yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and Ayurveda practices allows for a deeper level of healing for the mind, body, emotions, and spirit that one will not attain with traditional psychotherapy practices alone. These modalities are not just practices but ways of understanding how we as human beings relate to ourselves and each other. One does not need any experience with yoga to benefit from this mind/body/spirit approach, all you need is to be open to the connection between this trilogy. Holistic Integrated Psychotherapy will guide you to heart based healing. Begin your journey today. Contact me for a free telephone consult.

Hi, my name is Asia! If you’re reading this, you might be feeling overwhelmed, weighed down by thoughts that won’t quiet, or simply unsure of how to move forward. I want you to know you don’t have to go through this alone. In our work together, I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can bring your struggles honestly and feel heard. I approach therapy as a collaborative process. We explore what’s happening in your life right now, while also noticing the patterns and beliefs that may be shaping how you see yourself. I’ll help you build practical coping tools for the moments when emotions feel too heavy, and I’ll also support you in making deeper, lasting changes so you can feel more grounded and connected to yourself. My clients describe me as warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I believe healing happens through genuine connection, and I bring both professionalism and humanity into the therapy room. Together, we’ll move at your pace, focusing on what matters most to you.

Hello and welcome. We all strive to feel happy and fulfilled in our lives but unhealthy patterns of feeling or thinking often leave us feeling dissatisfied, lost or stuck, and without a sense of who we really are. Although we make our best efforts to make positive changes on our own, we may reach a point where the support and guidance of a trained professional can help facilitate these changes. With over 20 years offering therapy to individuals and couples, I specialize in helping people address a range of issues such as phobias and anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship challenges, body image and weight concerns, abuse, and trauma. I can also effectively assist you in managing stress, particularly career-related stress. In addition, I help people deal with grief, health difficulties, perfectionism, procrastination, creative blocks, and to navigate major life changes. I'm supportive and interactive in my style and offer a private, judgment-free space to express your thoughts and feelings. It is essential to me that you feel safe, fully accepted and heard throughout our work together. As we explore your issues in depth, I remain focused on your particular therapy goals and strive to help you reach them. Therapy can help you identify your needs, better understand yourself, and implement practical solutions for your problems. False beliefs, such as the idea that you are unworthy, incompetent, inadequate, or weak, can make you feel hopeless about life. This hopelessness impedes your ability to live a fulfilling life and to feel genuinely happy. I'll help you change these patterns while accessing your unique resources and strengths. Through a renewed sense of self-confidence and greater self-awareness, you'll be able to authentically connect with others and boost the quality of your relationships. You'll be more empowered to make healthy choices while creating lasting, positive changes. Some individuals thrive with a short-term and solution-focused approach. This style helps you learn skills to address specific challenges more immediately. At other times, therapy can be a gradual, longer term, in-depth process to help you achieve your goals. Everyone needs something a little different. I'll collaborate with you to determine what you need, tailoring my treatment approach to your unique situation. People seek therapy for different reasons and the choice to get professional help can be daunting. If you're reading this then you have already taken that first step. I believe that discovering your true potential and becoming the best version of yourself is possible and I look forward to being your companion on that journey! *If you are in a life-threatening situation, or at risk of harming yourself or another, please do not use this site nor send messages as they are not able to be responded to
