Feeling off, overwhelmed, or stuck? You deserve support as you work through this part of your life ❤️ I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, stress, and other common human experiences, such as grief and loss, changes in mood, and major life changes.

My practice is the result of 7+ years of experience helping people across private practice, outpatient community mental health, correctional settings, and intensive outpatient care. I use evidence-based strategies to help clients build practical coping skills, manage difficult emotions, and navigate challenges in a way that fits their life and circumstances.

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about the next step. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll work through challenges at your pace and help you move towards healing, feeling balanced, and gaining a clearer sense of direction.

I offer early morning sessions into the early afternoon for early risers, busy schedules, and for those who want to start their day feeling supported!

Therapist

Hi, and thank you for taking the first step toward prioritizing your mental health! I am based in Santa Barbara, CA, and I work with people who have spent their lives fitting into rooms that weren't made for them. My specialty is helping adults, teens, and couples reconnect with who they actually are beneath the roles they've been playing — whether that's a trauma survivor, a corporate burnout, or someone who has simply never quite felt like they belonged anywhere. I bring both clinical training and lived experience to this work, and I offer sessions in English and Spanish. Visit www.therapybydesire.com to learn more about me.
