Alzheimer's Therapists in San Francisco, CA

I provide a safe space in my practice to allow for all stages of self-discovery and wellness for you or your family. I began my master's training in 2014, and I have worked with individuals and their families struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, dementia , and seizure disorders.

I am a Geropsychologist which means I specialize with older adults. I provide forensic neuropsychological evaluations to assist with decision making capacity for the following domains: medical/financial consent, sexual consent, testamentary consent, driving, independent living. Evaluations/therapy also assist with diagnoses for dementia , depression, anxiety, and/or grief/loss. I work with family members/caregivers caring for those with dementia and perhaps behavioral challenges associated with the dementia . I currently work at the San Francisco VA Health Care System (SFVAHCS) for the Department of Geropsychiatry since 2007.

Neuropsychological evaluations can be helpful at any age. If you are struggling with your thinking abilities (attention, memory, or executive functioning), you may benefit from diagnostic clarity (is it ADHD? do I have dementia ?). Testing can identify a pattern of cognitive strengths and weaknesses and help guide in treatment planning.

Seeking out psychotherapy is an investment in yourself so you can reach your dreams and overcome emotional hurdles like depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, relationship and work problems, and recovery from addictions. I have helped many people jump over these barriers to get more of what they want in their lives. The therapy I practice can lead to longstanding changes in your relationships and how you feel about yourself. I create a safe and confidential space where we can explore what’s getting in the way. My approach understands complexity and privileges the uniqueness of your personality.
