Kypris Aster Drake

Hi! I'm Kypris and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, with trainings and certifications in Sex Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I work with couples and individuals and specialize in all types of relationships and healing trauma, especially LGBTQ, Non-monogamy and sexuality concerns. (Insurance Clients go to my Headway link below to to book a consultation and see benefits.) https://headway.co/providers/kypris-drake?utm_source=pem&utm_medium=direct_link&utm_campaign=83130 I will be your biggest cheerleader while still being gently honest about any blind spots that I see. How I work: We’ll work on Zoom, making it easy for you to do your session in total privacy and comfort. You can choose to have a pet on your lap, snuggle under your favorite blanket, or have a hot cup of tea. In our first few sessions I’ll start by listening to your pain points. We’ll make a plan to move ahead with your healing, which involves learning to name and understand your emotions, and using mindfulness to help you soothe yourself if the emotions get too big to manage in the moment. How will you feel? My clients often tell me they feel so much better after just one session. Sometimes just being able to tell somebody about what’s bothering you brings immediate relief. As we continue our journey together, you’ll start to feel happier, more able to be your authentic self and supported by the people in your life that you’re close to. My couples tell me that they feel closer and more connected and they've learned to stop arguments before they happen and make repairs when disagreements happen.
