My practice is consisted of two parts. I provide psychotherapy for child, adolescent and adult clients. My second half of the practice focuses on neuropsychological assessment. I provide assessment for clients who may carry clinical and educational diagnoses including ADHD, autism, specific learning disorder, Bipolar Disorder, dementia/Alzheimer's Disease, and personality disorders. I work collaboratively with local psychiatrists, neurologists, pediatricians and school teachers. My office is one of the preferred testing sites for IQ assessment by a few well-known private schools in the bay area.

I understand the unhealthy cycle of marriage and the emotional demand of parenting since having been married for 20+ years with three teenager children.
Are you feeling stuck in your marriage, family relationships, or personal growth? Even the strongest among us can feel lost, unsure, ambivalent, or unhappy at times. I can help you understand and manage whatever life throws at you, and how to do it successfully. I believe you have the strength not to just survive, but to truly THRIVE.

I'd like to support you going through the difficult moment you might be experiencing now. Life is no doubt challenging but a better and quality life should never be too much to ask. In my practice, I work with children, adolescents, adults, seniors, individuals, couples, and families. I have years of experience working with children and teens from ages 3 to 17 with different kinds/levels of issues and challenges. In the process, parent-child or family relational issues sometimes reveal and could be addressed through additional work or referrals. I also help couples to manage disagreements, de-escalate conflicts, and rebuild trust.

We all pick up unhelpful coping mechanisms and survival skills during those early foundational years, but we don't deserve to feel stuck with them forever. Everyone benefits from taking a moment to pause and reevaluate to identify beneficial changes and update your view of yourself in a way that is authentic to you-not your baggage. I find a strong therapeutic relationship is key to successful therapy, and that is my priority. Our initial session we'll review what is bringing you to counseling. From there, we will collaborate to create goals and use the safety of the therapeutic relationship to find your personal version of growth.

Harmony. When you think of harmony, one might picture different things coming together that work so well simultaneously and you feel a sense of peace. When things aren’t working well together, there is a clash or dissonance, causing more stress and more problems. I came across a video on Instagram from Nedra Glover Tawwab (nedratawwab) where she talked about the difference between balance and harmony. You see, my ultimate goal in life was to achieve balance when in fact what I was envisioning was harmony. “Harmony is getting things to flow in your life in a cohesive way. Balance is getting everything to be equal."

Teen Therapists

What does therapy for teenagers look like?

When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?

There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?

You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
