Trauma-Informed Online Therapy in California
Support with room for your pace and your choices.
Difficult experiences can shape how you relate to yourself, other people, and the world around you. You may notice tension, withdrawal, strong emotional reactions, or uncertainty about whom to trust. Trauma-informed therapy approaches your experience with respect for your history and your current needs.
You do not need to share everything at once
We begin with what brings you to therapy and what would help you feel more supported now. You can choose what you are ready to discuss. We can pause, slow down, or return to a topic when you feel better prepared.
We talk about confidentiality, boundaries, and how we will work together. Your feedback matters, including when a question or practice feels uncomfortable. Building a therapeutic relationship is part of the work.
What our work may include
Depending on your goals, we may explore grounding in your surroundings, noticing emotions, responding to self-criticism, or practicing boundaries in relationships. I integrate ACT, mindfulness, compassion, and communication skills, adapting each to your comfort and circumstances.
Mindfulness is optional and flexible. For some people, attention to the body or breath feels difficult; focusing on external surroundings may be more helpful. We decide together and avoid pushing you into an exercise before you are ready.
Considering fit and next steps
Trauma-informed care describes how I approach therapy. We will discuss your needs and whether my services are appropriate, including whether another kind of support or additional care would be helpful. We check in about your goals and progress throughout our work.
Online sessions are available while you are physically in California. Learn more about starting therapy, mindfulness, and ACT, or contact me to discuss fit.
