Healing after harm, at your own pace
If you have survived domestic violence, sexual assault, or sexual abuse, you already know how much it can change the way you feel in your body, your relationships, and your own skin. You don’t have to explain it all, or relive it, to get support.
I offer online therapy to survivors in California. Together we rebuild a sense of safety, reconnect with your needs and boundaries, and move toward healing at a pace that is yours.
What survivors often tell me they want
- To feel safe again, in their home, their body, and their relationships
- To trust their own instincts and say no without guilt
- To feel less on edge, or less numb
- To make sense of what happened without being rushed or judged
- To reconnect with the parts of themselves that went quiet
How I work with survivors
My approach is trauma informed, strengths based, and collaborative. In practice that means:
- You set the pace. You decide what to share, and when. We can slow down or pause at any time.
- Safety comes first. We build steadiness and coping tools before going anywhere hard.
- Your strengths count. You made it through. We start from what is already working.
- Your boundaries are respected. That includes in the therapy room, on screen.
Why online therapy can help
Meeting from home means you can choose a space where you feel most at ease, with no waiting room and no commute. All you need is a private spot and an internet connection. I see clients located anywhere in California.
A gentle first step
Reaching out can feel like the hardest part. Your first session is a conversation, not a commitment. We talk about what brings you in, what you hope will feel different, and whether we are a good fit. You can ask me anything first.
Questions survivors ask
Do I have to tell you everything that happened?
No. You choose what to share and when. Healing does not require retelling every detail, and we can focus on how you feel today.
Is online therapy safe and private for survivors?
You can meet from any private space in California. If you share a home with someone who may monitor you, tell me and we will plan a safe way to connect.
What if I'm not sure I'm ready?
That is a common feeling. You can book a first session to talk it through, with no pressure to continue.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911. For confidential support anytime, the National Domestic Violence Hotline is 1-800-799-7233 and RAINN's National Sexual Assault Hotline is 1-800-656-4673. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988.
