"Are you ready for a NEW relationship with your thoughts and feelings?" Creating a new awareness of self in relationship to the world around you increases your ability to maintain focus and direction. Developing new relationships with your thoughts & feelings is what Mindfulness-Based therapy is about. As a licensed therapist, I use Mindfulness-based counseling processes to assist people in coping with the struggles of daily life. I have an integrative approach to counseling, focusing on your needs and concerns. I look forward to assisting you to discover more about you!

It hurts to feel lost. Have you been wondering how to find your way back, or find your way forward? Things can get better, relationships can heal, and deep connection can be built. Open and honest conversations might feel scary, but they can turn back the tide towards healing and caring.

My clinical approach is based on Solution-Focused Short-Term Therapy. I believe strongly that each client comes to therapy equipped with the inherent strengths and abilities necessary to uncover and implement the steps required to resolve the difficulties facing him or her. I see my role in that process as being one of assisting my client to heighten their awareness of, and access to, those strengths. I help my client become aware of all the possibilities for change and then collaborate with them in the creation of alternative solutions. (Note: Accommodations to my fees will be considered on an individual case basis).

People seek out therapy for many reasons, and have concerns that can range from recent problems to struggles that have been occurring for many years. I want to reassure you that whatever distress you may be facing, healing is indeed possible! From my 20 years experience in this profession, I can tell you with certainty that therapy works, and can be transformative and life-changing! Therapy is a place to heal and recover, to work through life's challenges, to get to know and honor yourself, and to live the life you want to create for you.

Finding the ideal psychologist is the most important part of the therapeutic process.

I am licensed in California and Washington State, and see clients residing anywhere in California and Washington via Teletherapy only. Therapy is as much art as science. It is a collaborative effort in which therapist and client work together in finding solutions to life problems, increasing the ability to live a more satisfying life whilelearning how to negotiate the curves often encountered along the way.

I am accepting new referrals using telehealth now. I am especially looking for patients who are concerned about compulsive sexual behavior. I really enjoy working with motivated clients who are seeking help to resolve problems in their life. Some things are simple but other things are quite complex.

Life is full of unique challenges and pressures. I consider therapy a partnership - helping you to help yourself, fostering power and independence. I focus on personal growth in accordance to my philosophy that, "things don't happen to you, they happen through you." My central goal is to help you discover meaning and purpose in your life and create a pathway of positive action to living your best life. I have extensive training in Depth Psychotherapy, an approach that helps individuals become aware of unconscious forces that drive their behavior. My core client focus is working professionals, high net worth and LGBTQ+ populations.

I help adults overcome anxiety and its accompanying struggles. Are you tired of constantly battling anxiety, fear, self-doubt, or substance use? I know you've tried everything and are in desperate need of relief. Here's the good news: Anxiety is very treatable with evidence-backed approaches like acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). In fact, ACT is effective for overcoming anxiety in as little as 12 to 16 sessions. Imagine a life in which you can become more open and outgoing, start dating again, connect emotionally with your partner, return to school, and pursue your dream career.

What if I could help you create a life filled with happiness, purpose & meaning?! I love seeing people transform into the highest versions of themselves in our sessions & overcome obstacles they never thought possible.

I believe in the power of the mind, body connection, and the positivity of holistic healing. I teach clients how to successfully manage difficult emotions and obtain a life worth living.

My goal in working with those who entrust me with their concerns and vulnerabilities is to enable them to find creative solutions to life dilemmas.

The trusting partnership of the therapeutic relationship is key.

I teach approaches to mindfulness and can help clients identify blocks to achieving their goals.
