If you are feeling exhausted, on edge, or as though your needs are too much, please know that you no longer have to settle for self-neglect. Many of the women I work with are navigating the long-term effects of childhood trauma in their adult lives.
Through somatic therapy, we will explore sensations, thoughts, and unmet needs to help you achieve meaningful change. I specialize in supporting eldest daughters, women who carry heavy burdens, people pleasers, and those who have unintentionally neglected themselves.
My goal is to empower you to feel whole through this body-based approach.My practice includes individual therapy, sound healing or Reiki to restore internal balance. Message me to schedule your 15 minute consultation.

Treatment Approach
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Gestalt Therapy Encourages awareness of thoughts, feelings, and actions in the present moment. It helps people integrate different parts of themselves for wholeness.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.
Approach Description: I am a trauma-informed body based therapist for women who have spent their lives being the "strong one." I support those navigating the quiet exhaustion of high achievement, the weight of cultural expectations and complexities of motherhood.
My approach is grounded, compassionate, and gently direct. I used body based therapy, mindfulness, and meditation to help you understand how your beliefs were formed to release the beliefs that are no longer serving you.

Flourishing Insight Therapy was created with the intention to help women reconnect with themselves. Many of the women I work with have experienced the impact of chronic stress or childhood trauma, that is now impacting their relationships, their self-view, or creating shame. Using somatic therapy and holistic healing, we work on helping you live in the present, reconnect with your values to help you make meaningful change without neglecting yourself. I offer in person therapy in La Habra, California which is conveniently between La County and Orange County. Virtual therapy is offered throughout the state of California. Monthly sound healing groups are offered.
