Do any of these scenarios resonate with you? If so, let's work together!
Are you curious about how your past experiences and traumas have affected you? Do you want to identify and unlearn unhealthy patterns and habits that you learned in childhood which are negatively impacting you and/or your personal relationships?
Are you someone who struggles with over-thinking, low self-esteem, people-pleasing, and/or are hard on yourself? Are those things negatively affecting your personal relationships, work, or general sense of self?
Do you feel overwhelmed being pregnant, with a new baby, or in your role as "parent"? Are you grieving your old life and/or having a hard time managing home/work/relationships? Are you wondering "who am I" besides being a parent?
Do you frequently think about your unhappiness with your body? Do you believe you would be finally be "worthy" if you were just smaller size? Are you trying to control food only to realize it has total control over you?
The good news is that you are not alone in your struggles nor do you have to go through this alone. Let's work through these challenges together!
A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Hi there! My name is Carrie and I was born and raised in Southern California and wouldn't have it any other way. I love the beach, hikes, bike-riding, reading, sometimes watching reality television, and mostly spending time with my family and friends.

I specialize in working with adults and young adults who struggle with mood disorders, life adjustment changes, poor self-esteem, trauma, disordered eating, maternal mental health, perinatal mood disorders, relationship problems and more. I utilize an eclectic approach which varies depending on each client’s needs. I focus on approaches including inner-child work, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, and strengths-based approach. I have completed trainings in EMDR through EMDRIA and Perinatal Mood Disorders through PSI.
