Be there for others without leaving yourself behind.
Welcome! I’m Caren, a Licensed IFS, EMDR and Somatic Therapist dedicated to supporting people who strive to make a positive impact in the world. Whether you are a teacher, social worker, therapist, activist, non-profit worker, or just someone who cares deeply about the world, I am here to support you.
Having a positive relationship with a therapist who listens deeply to you and provides appropriate support can be transformative.
I offer online sessions for people who live in California and/or Washington State.

​
I strongly believe that sharing stories and experiences with a supportive group is necessary for healing. So much trauma and pain is caused in group contexts (family, school, etc). We have the power to create spaces together to heal past wounds and learn new ways of being together.
I offer individual and group consultation to other therapists who are looking to deepen their presence with clients. Therapy can be a very isolating profession, and it is important to have spaces to process our work.
