My passion for mental health stems from a deep-seated love for learning and a genuine desire to help people navigate the complexities of their psychological landscapes. I am driven by the belief that everyone has the potential to achieve their optimal level of functioning, and my goal is to facilitate this process using evidence-based practices, a touch of humor, and strong rapport. In my work, I strive to help clients understand psychological concepts and, more importantly, themselves.

I am here to help explore, create and work towards your goals. I like to be up front that therapists do not have magical wands. I center around your strengths and help empower you to focus on the positives that you already have. This is a safe place to work through pain, emotions and anger management. We can work on skills together to strengthen relationships and build confidence.

When we’ve lost a part of ourselves, a life we had created or envisioned, our world can feel as if it’s falling apart, even ending. And in a way, it is. But maybe this is also part of our journey, the road that takes us to the heart of it. When provided with a safe environment where respect, compassion and unconditional positive regard are offered, we have a chance to set out on our path. The invitation, as always, is to start. Start anywhere, no matter how unsure and unsteady. But start somewhere. In time we grow more aware and self-assured as we make our way toward our most authentic self, our most authentic life.

I’m glad you’re here. Starting therapy can be overwhelming and confusing, but you made the first step toward growth and change. My approach to therapy is rooted in understanding how a person’s history has shaped the way they view the world, by stories we have been told and tell ourselves, we have the power to change how our history shapes our future. Through using the therapeutic relationship, warmth, and attending to attachment wounds, I assist clients in recognizing their patterns and building awareness on how their wounds are affecting their day-to-day lives.

A Tailored Therapeutic Approach: You are unique and so is the issue you are struggling with. I do not believe there is only one path to a healthier life. In my experience, one style of therapy does not fit every person or every challenge. My responsibility, as your therapist, is to identify the blend of therapeutic approaches that best connect with you and your personality. In this way, together, we can effectively overcome your obstacles and bring about the change you seek and deserve. Therapy is not cookie-cutter. It should not pigeonhole. I work with you, not a textbook version of your issue.

Life is full of challenges. We all face hard times, stress and struggles at some point during our lives. Unfortunately, we cannot change the past, but we can change our thoughts and feelings about what has happened to us and choose how to deal with it and the effect it will have on us in the future. I specialize in working with teens, adults, families and couples dealing with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, relationship problems and life transitions (marriage, divorce, becoming a parent, moving, becoming empty nesters, grief and loss, etc.).

Many clients assume their marital relationship will be monogamous and free of major conflict. When they find their expectation are not met or an extramarital affair does occur-- the result is betrayal, anger, and depression. I teach couples how to "fight fair" express their feelings and thoughts, and understand and hear each other in order to accept one another's strengths and flaws without compromising their own needs. Knowing what causes the breakdown in the marriage can actually help strengthen the relationship.

You have to feel better to get better. That may seem obvious, but it really isn't. When I begin to work with a new patient, I have two immediate goals: To get to know this person so we can determine if we're a good match; and if we are, to use my years of experience and skills to target current areas of damage and hurt. People come to therapy in pain — something or many things in their lives aren't working. Our job is to take a breath, appreciate your unique situation, understand when and how current problem(s) became unmanageable or toxic, and then find ways to feel better, more hopeful and clear about how to proceed back to life.

I have been practicing in the Bay Area for 8 years. My theoretical approach draws on psychodynamic psychology, attachment theory, family systems theory, and trauma-informed care. Many people have questions, reservations, preconceived ideas, and judgments about what therapy is and what it means to be someone who seeks out therapy.
