I am CA state licensed marriage and family therapist, National Certified Counselor and Registered Yoga Teacher. I maintain a private practice in Palo Alto, Redwood City and Berkeley and see clients for individual, couple psychotherapy and career counseling. I have taught courses for Kaiser Permanente in Behavioral Health and served as a coach/facilitator in Medical Weight Management. My training includes over 10 years in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) and 7 years in Control Mastery, both evidenced based treatment approaches to help clients build their inner resources and motivation to reach their goals.
I offer a client-centered approach to treatment; tailoring interventions and time frame that are specific to each individual and couple. Psychotherapy and career counseling involve an active collaboration between client and therapist to help the client create a more satisfying personal and work life. Being active in treatment is key for a successful result.
My training also includes over 10 years in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), as a clinician, clinical supervisor and teacher of psychotherapists. I also have completed level through 2 in Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (P.A.C.T.), which helps couples understand each other's owners manuals and create a more secure bond.
