Many of us feel disconnected from others and ourselves. We seek a truer and healthier sense of our well being and presence in the world. In my work with adults and teens I help individuals become healthier versions of themselves whether they’re working through anxiety, depression, troubled relationships, addiction, life transitions or emerging symptoms of more serious mental illness and trauma. I believe each of us needs to be seen and heard, and respected in our unique complexity. Underlying the issue that brings us to therapy is the desire to change and heal, even when that change is difficult to put into words.

If you are seeking a therapist for yourself, or for your child or teen, you may have observed concerning changes in one or more important domains: social, academic, or behavioral. You, or your child or teen, may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or less pleasure in activities previously enjoyed, or perhaps may be experiencing less joy and success – or more frustration, fear, or isolation – in school, at home, or in peer relationships. As a marriage and family therapist, I help children, teens, and adults to thrive – in school, in their families, in relationships … in life. My style is collaborative, skills-based, and respectful.

Working from a somatic approach, I help adolescents and young adults reconnect with the experience of being in their body, learning to live comfortably with feelings, emotions, and to express needs in a mature way.
Having extensive experience treating young people both in private practice and Residential Treatment Settings, I understand the wide range of stressors young people face in this day and age, and the resulting symptoms – for example: how peer conflict, parent-child relationship difficulties, and social media addiction can lead to depression, anxiety, panic/overwhelm, substance use, identity crisis, self-harm, etc.

I serve individual teens (13+) and adults in California mostly via telehealth, with some in-person availability in my Marin office.
Are you struggling with relationship issues, trapped in the cycle of addiction, or battling an eating disorder? Or maybe you're navigating the path of cult recovery or seeking liberation from a high-control group or religion? What about grappling with work burnout, perfectionism, or the existential dread of climate change? It's also possible everything looks "fine" on the surface but inside you're experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or obsessions and compulsions. Whatever is causing your dis-ease, I'm sorry you're going through this tough time, and I'm so happy that you're here. You are not alone and your pain is valid.

I love supporting clients - adults, adolescents and couples - identify parts of themselves that have got stuck in the past and then guiding them to heal.
I believe we all have rich, inner worlds fueled by confidence, compassion and curiosity. When trauma or attachment disturbances disconnect us from this, symptoms of depression or anxiety arise. My goal is to hear my clients’ stories, honing in on the gems that are buried there to guide them back to their core selves. With empathy and respect, I work with my clients to create, in Marsha Linehan’s words, a life worth living.
