Integrative Counseling Services in Lafayette, CA
At Lamorinda Counseling, we believe that healing, growth, and resiliency require an integrative approach that bridges mind, body, and spirit. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of clinical experience, I specialize in providing personalized therapy for individuals, couples, and families facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My practice combines evidence-based modalities like Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing with holistic techniques rooted in yoga, mindfulness, and ceremonial healing.With offices in Lafayette and San Francisco, I serve diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+ communities, neurodivergent individuals, and those exploring alternative relationship structures. My doctoral research in East-West Psychology deepens my expertise in ancestral rites of passage and integrative mental health care. By fostering collaboration and cultural inclusivity, we create sacred spaces for clients to reclaim their narratives and cultivate meaningful, joyful lives through therapy and ceremonial practices.
