If you are feeling unhappy or stuck, struggling with relationships, work, and not getting what you want in life, our therapy sessions can help you move forward. I will help you listen to yourself better, understand what's getting in your way, and feel more confident in being yourself. For couples, I help you to slow down, to learn to listen to each other, to identify your own needs, and to communicate them to your partner. I help couples build empathy for each other, which can turn conflict into an opportunity for closeness and deeper understanding.

Whatever we're struggling with in life, I believe we have an inner knowing, wisdom and the capacity for healing, but sometimes we need to be witnessed and accompanied through a process of self exploration, met with compassion and spacious inquisitiveness, and be gently invited to see outside our entrenched narratives, for these inner gifts to fully emerge and allow us to take a new shape. I think it's vital to look at a person's struggles contextually, systemically, historically, and inter-relationally, knowing what is arising in the now comes from a larger story shaped across years and in different domains of our lives.

Are you tired of feeling stuck? Sick of encountering the same problems/ issues/ struggles over and over again. You are not alone. Change is very hard; we naturally fear it. I can help. In my work, I am actively engaged, interested, curious, thoughtful and direct. I will work with you to get beneath the surface, sort through the layers and come to a place of deeper understanding and greater ability to make conscious choices. In both my professional and personal experience, I have come to believe in the transformative power of therapy.

Please note: I am no longer accepting Anthem Blue Cross Insurance. When we are faced with a crisis, transition, or other stressful life situation we want to be comforted, supported, and given direction; in other words, we want to feel better. While we can often receive useful help from friends and family it often isn't sufficient to resolve the issue or prevent it from reoccurring. Old habits and patterns tend to be stubborn but change is possible. In my view, real and lasting growth begins with the willingness to try new approaches to old problems.

I find it effective to combine behavioral solutions with depth work. Since the unconscious ripples into all aspects of life, I have found that relational therapy addressing unconscious motives can help with most psychological difficulties. In addition to working with individuals, couples & families, I am adjunct faculty at the California Institute of Integral Studies where I teach in the Masters in Counseling Psychology Department and Psychological Services Clinic.

Trauma and adverse childhood experiences are common and ordinary. If left untreated, they can affect your ability to feel safe, trust others and feel hopeful about your future and affect your ability to form healthy relationships at home, at school/work and in the community throughout the life-cycle. Many clients are unable to identify, name or explain their trauma, requiring a combination of both psychotherapy and movement to process their trauma. Comprehensive and innovative trauma-sensitive treatment approaches are available that can improve your overall general functioning, health and sense of wellbeing, concurrently.
