Hello! I’m Ari (Ar-ee)..
She / Her- English
I am a White, Jewish cis female originally from the Bay Area now calling Santa Barbara home. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults of all identities and backgrounds who are experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD/Trauma, relationship issues, phase of life difficulties and life transitions as well as grief and loss. I meet all of my clients where they are in their life right now with immense compassion and deep curiosity while providing a space that is safe, collaborative, and empowering.
If you grew up in a dysfunctional family system with abusive family members and dynamics it is inevitable that the unaddressed trauma is going to show up in your relationships, career, family life and your own self-concept. You’re here because you’re struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, codependency, shame and guilt, people-pleasing and perfectionism. I help adults with childhood and adolescent trauma process their past, gain awareness, and reconnect with themselves.
I offer an integrative approach to therapy as I feel that there is no one-size fits all approach. We’ll work together to strengthen communication skills, establish boundaries, embrace discomfort with confidence and make values based choices.
Honesty, accountability, humor and curiosity are the values that I live by and shape my approach to care with my clients. At the core of the therapeutic relationship there must be safety and trust. I aim to be that healthy adult that you deserved when you were younger. If this approach feels right for you, please contact me for a free 15 min consultation.
