I will challenge you with questions and give you homework to help you succeed. I work in the present and do not believe it is productive to spend years talking about the past. You will sense my passion for my work and will feel seen and heard.

I provide individual psychotherapy to older adolescents and adults using primarily cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based strategies. I specialize in working with individuals who experience anxiety, self-judgment, depression, life transitions, or obstacles that may keep them from experiencing greater ease, joy, and alignment in their lives. I also provide psychological and psychoeducational assessments to children and adults to better understand their learning or psychological profile and to receive services that will help them reach their full potential.

I specialize in treating people engaged in making life transitions, whether they have been consciously chosen or not. My threshold work focuses on assisting you to skillfully navigate the space between what was and what is yet to be, an often uncomfortable time called ‘liminal space’, when what can become deeply transformative may feel more like a disorienting upheaval. Issues such as depression and anxiety; the changes we encounter because of health and aging; shifts in self-expression, relationships, work, and your unique spiritual connection to this life may all be redefined in the transition.

My approach to psychotherapy is a collaborative and flexible partnership with each client. I believe that trust, respect, non-judgment, genuineness, and compassion form the foundation of a therapeutic relationship. Through the process of psychotherapy, I endeavor to help clients gain insight and perspective into their relationships and behaviors with the intention of achieving positive change. We will work in tandem to identify treatment goals and expectations at the outset of treatment, and will ensure that the focus of therapy is on the most salient issues.

In today’s fast paced world, we are faced with many stressors, obstacles and challenges. Sometimes we need to slow down and take stock of what we have and changes we may want to make. My practice is geared towards helping adults and couples achieve the life that they want rather than struggling just to get by. Therapy can be both challenging and an exciting experience. Together, we can work on eliminating your anxiety, depression, relationships problems and general discontent.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships or a life transition, I offer a safe space to identify your needs and make the changes necessary to grow and live with meaning. Leave behind what no longer works and align yourself to what truly serves you. My work centers around the importance of insight and authenticity. With increased awareness of your thoughts, feelings and behavior you have the potential to tap into new skills and greater self acceptance. It is possible to shed your doubt and pain. I can help.

Cultivating meaningful-healthy relationships may be especially difficult when our sense of self is overshadowed by traumatic and emotionally painful experiences. My approach to the therapy process focuses on helping foster your innate strengths and resiliency while exploring your vulnerabilities and concerns. Together we help you build a greater understanding of yourself through healing limiting patterns, fears, and beliefs. In this way, you become rooted in a life grounded in meaning, aliveness, and depth. I believe that building a stronger relationship with yourself can help cultivate healthier relationships with others, making them easier to initiate, maintain, and enjoy.

I offer holistic psychotherapy to individuals and couples with a primary focus on relationship issues, anxiety, trauma, and women's issues. My approach is warm, compassionate, interactive, and engaged. I am particularly interested in helping you become more connected to your sense of purpose and authenticity. Above all, I am curious about your unique needs and collaborate with you to continually address and meet these needs.

My objective is to make your life better now and into the future. Therapists helped me over the years, taught and inspired me to become one. I pivoted to my career as a therapist 16 years after earning a B.A. in Economics at University of Chicago. I earned my LCSW at Smith College. I'm a mother of two and a first-generation child of immigrants. In my practice I want you to make the most of your time with me. I work with a range of clients, from executives to college students. My office is tucked into hills and trees. Clients are from my town, Mill Valley, Sausalito, Kentfield, Tiburon, San Francisco and the South Bay. I Zoom too.
