At East Bay Center for Anxiety Relief, we work with adults, children, teens, couples, and families. We also facilitate periodic groups focused on communication skills, social skills, anxiety, depression, and working women. We strive for mindful, efficient, and effective therapy. Our clinicians are trained in research-based models such as TEAM-CBT, ACT and Gottman couples/family models. We work a bit differently than more traditional practices. We don’t cram an hour of therapy into 50 minutes. Instead, we provide full 60-, 75-, or 90-minute sessions.

Do your daily stressors, inner critique, and unhealed trauma leave you feeling defeated and unseen? Does this get in the way of your healing process, or affect your current relationships? Life is not meant to be tackled alone, especially in today's world, which is full of overwhelming stressors and increasing disconnectedness; both disconnection from ourselves, and others. In providing a non-judgmental, affirming space for you, we can explore your story, struggles, and strengths together, at a pace that feels safe for you. Are you also constantly having to navigate multiple marginalized identities?

Stress and trauma can take many forms. Sometimes we survive an event such as a car accident, wildfire, assault, or military-related event. Or we may notice chronic struggles with trusting others and ourselves, and feeling stressed and unsatisfied in our relationships. The experience of trauma can significantly impact how we change or grow in each present moment, how we connect and separate from others, and how we experiment, take risks, and resource our creativity. Let's co-create a therapy relationship that works to support the development of loving relationships with self and others.

Licensed in CA, WA, & OR. I'm passionate about working with queer, neurodivergent folks who have experienced trauma. I also enjoy working with folks who identify as part of the “still COVIDing” community. I offer support around exploring gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, and coming out. I also enjoy supporting individuals and couples in developing secure attachment. A lot of the folks I work with are experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, and stress. They are seeking a better understanding of themselves and some relief. I support them in bettering their relationships with themselves and others.

You find yourself exhausted - you're used to prioritizing everyone around you. You're the one who always figures things out and gets things done without breaking a sweat. And yet, tending to your own needs feels selfish or unfamiliar. You notice that you're constantly irritable, depressed, or unable to relax. Maybe you snap at others when you don't mean to. Maybe you feel hopeless and find it hard to get out of bed. Or maybe you're going through a significant change and feel overwhelmed. You just want to take back control and feel happier again.

In close relationships either with another or with ourselves, we all have patterns of maintaining safety and connection. Although powerfully protective, these old patterns and systems may get in the way of living with ease and abundance. I support growth and healing by understanding old patterns of connection that may no longer be of service so that you can become self aware and co-create healing experiences.  As an AASECT certified sex therapist I offer a unique skillset. Whether it's relationship therapy, individual therapy or sex therapy, I am here to walk with you on your journey with compassion, presence, and perspective.

Clarity, confidence, and connection are the key pillars that support a fulfilling life, but they can be compromised in times of stress or transition. The foundations of the past, once familiar and secure, are shaken. Anxieties encroach. Relationships are lost. Yet, I believe that despite the pain and difficulty of these phases, there is immense potential for positive change and personal growth. Helping you discover that potential is what I love most about my work.
