My goal and passion is to help you get out from that place of "stuckness." Whether it's about relationship issues, parenting woes, career burn-out or other life transitions, I work with clients to disrupt unhelpful patterns, heal wounds, and find creative approaches to life’s challenges. Emotional pain is rooted in lived experience, and only new experiences can help shift it. We work together to do this at a pace that works for you.
I am an experienced, compassionate clinician with a good sense of humor. My goal is to support clients in building effective skills in order to regulate their emotions and overcome the obstacles that are getting in the way for them. I help people live out their values, improve their health and functioning and cultivate resilience.
I practice in office, over telehealth and doing hiking therapy for clients living in the Bay Area. If you are interested in learning more about this unique and transformational way of working, please reach out and we can determine if its a good fit for your needs.
