I specialize in utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people take active, specific steps to achieve their goals. CBT is an effective, scientifically-supported treatment that involves learning and implementing skills to achieve and maintain changes. Homework and goals are set collaboratively.

I work with individuals, couples, and groups, of all ages. My practice rests on the principles of inclusiveness, autonomy, and empowerment. I strive to provide a space of acceptance of your authentic self and multiple facets of your identity (ethnicity, gender, sexual identities, ability, SES, etc.). I aid in relating with and understanding your emotions, and body sensations and meet your wellness needs by deepening connection. I believe that my role as a therapist is to make you self-sustainable, such that after our period of engagement—however short or long—you can keep expanding your experiential horizons.

Chronic pain and illness, sleep problems and sexual addiction and food problems are my specialties. I have over 40 years of experience, an advance certification in compulsive sexual problems and I am a certified weight loss specialist. I also have extensive training in treating anxiety and depression as well as problems in relationships. I am extensively trained in treating chronic pain and sleep problems through hypnotherapy and brief solution focused therapy. I have worked in Europe, India and the United States.

I believe that therapy involves a collaboration between the client/s and the therapist. If a client is not part of the decisions, the ideas, the relationship, and the motivation, achieving the desired change is much more difficult. I understand that being in a relationship of any kind can be difficult and I believe that everyone needs help navigating the obstacles that we are bound to encounter in love, family, friends & life. I love being a part of that process. My role as a therapist is to collaborate with, empathize with, support, understand, and encourage my clients. I do this through face to face as well as tele/video therapy.

It is my heartfelt desire to assist you in connecting with your authentic self and rediscovering a deep sense of well being. I am empathetic, spiritual, thoughtful, interactive, and dedicated to your deepest healing. I work with individuals and couples, empowering them to create loving, healthy relationships. I practice a blend of techniques, including EMDR, gestalt, person centered and spiritual psychology. I also provide supervision for LMFT graduate interns and post-graduate associates.

Take this as your sign. You deserve to have the life you desire as opposed to carrying the weight of unescapable emotions and stress. I want nothing more than to offer others a safe, confidential, and non-biased place to explore any concerns and feelings without judgement. Getting connected with your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors can lead you to a better understanding of yourself and build the foundation to work towards overcoming any obstacle in your path. My therapy approach is client-centered and I will meet you wherever you are spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.
