Holistic & Expressive Arts Los Gatos Therapist

Los Gatos Therapist providing holistic mental health therapy in the Bay Area and online in California

You’ve tried telling your family what you’re passionate about but don’t feel supported. Attempt after attempt to feel seen and encouraged by them you start to feel yourself give up on your dreams and go back to doing what you’ve always done to be “successful.” Questions like “who am I?” and “what am I doing?” pop up in your mind a lot these days.

You’ve been here before

Your confidence takes a nosedive. The trust you have in yourself, in your family and friends deteriorates. And the joy, excitement, and sense of purpose in your life feels more and more out of reach. The anger, frustration and resentment builds up inside. The more you think about it the more hurt and insecure you feel. You’re feeling stuck, lonely, and confused.

You’re at a crossroads & looking for a Los Gatos therapist

You’re ready to make a change. You know in your heart that you don’t want to look back on your life in the future and regret pretending to be someone you’re not. But every time you think about making the decision to make a change, fear and self doubt fill your mind. You wish you didn’t have all these feelings and that you could just keep pushing them aside or pretend like they weren’t holding you back. You’re ready to find someone to help you deal with all these feelings and navigate this new path you want to take for yourself.

Hi, I’m Valerie & I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Los Gatos, CA

I help adults gain clarity in their mind and direction on their path. Clients begin to understand the wisdom in their feelings, pay attention to what they value and decide what they’re willing to change in order to move forward. Through expressive arts, my clients use the creative process to explore feelings, gain insight into mental processes and create new stories and personal mantras to invite a stronger connection to self, their culture, and with their community.

In session with me you can learn and create new tools to understand, express and manage your emotional experiences, engage in exercises that give you in-the-moment insight about how you approach and navigate tough situations in your life, and continue to heal pain that comes from living a life that doesn’t feel authentic to you.
