You have done the insight work. And something still feels stuck.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) can help you move beyond intellectual understanding into embodied healing.
I offer KAP for individuals and couples who are ready to gently access deeper layers of trauma, grief, depression, relational wounds, or existential transition - in a safe, structured, and trauma-informed container.
What Is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy?
KAP combines psychotherapy with low-dose ketamine administered in collaboration with a medical provider. Ketamine can temporarily quiet the critical mind and soften rigid patterns.

I have a long history of treating individuals and couples, in Silicon Valley and beyond. I offer office visits in Sacramento and San Jose (Saturdays), and provide telehealth throughout CA, NV, OR, WA, CO and FL . Often, we expect far too much from ourselves. Clients are invited into a space without expectation and where they are free to be themselves, without fear of judgement or misunderstanding. We can sometimes struggle to find space to hold compassion for ourselves amidst our roles (parent, spouse, manager, executive).

I have extensive experience working with OCD and anxiety disorders. I also deliver therapy to many clients from the LGBTQ+ population and enjoy providing quality care to diverse communities. My foundation is in cognitive behavioral therapy, meaning that I believe the way we think about ourselves, and the world has a significant impact on our lives.

Life can feel overwhelming when you are facing personal struggles or experiencing conflict in important relationships. I can help you identify the patterns in your life that are limiting you and guide you toward developing better coping skills to find healing in the difficult areas of your life. Through my extensive work with both children and families who have survived trauma and experienced chronic mental health challenges, I've learned effective strategies for supporting those who are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, parent-child conflict, relationship issues, and the effects of living with a painful past.
