Psychotherapist
CA
As a dedicated therapist, my passion is helping individuals overcome mental heath challenges, and find their path to emotional well-being. I understand that life can be overwhelming at times, and whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or personal struggles, I am here to support you. I also specialize in treatment for those suffering from narcissistic abuse stemming either from a personal relationship or having to deal with narcissistic family members. My goal is to empower you to lead a more fulfilling, balanced life, and to rediscover your inner strength. I provide a compassionate, supportive space, where clients can explore their emotion I can help you learn to set boundaries, assert your needs, and overcome emotional avoidance to develop greater authenticity and mutually satisfying relationship with others. You don't have to let you past define you as you can embrace wholeness, healing and self-discovery. I also have over 18 years working as a psychotherapist, and together can help figure out a course of treatment to help you gain symptom relief. We do not have to be loyal to our suffering! We can work together to help you find a way through and create a new sense of hope and peace.

More information on payments and coverage

After scheduling your appointment through Zocdoc, you will receive a follow-up email from Tava with instructions to complete the necessary registration in our patient portal, including insurance and payment details. Placing a credit card on file is required to process insurance billing and any applicable deductible-related charges. Please complete your registration within 24 hours to ensure a smooth check-in and avoid delays in accessing care. If registration is not completed in time, we may not be able to verify your insurance coverage, which could result in unexpected out-of-pocket costs for your visit. Per our office policies, a fee may be charged for missed appointments or late cancellations.
