Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, intern, MA

San Francisco, CA 94110
I am a registered associate psychotherapist dedicated to the persistent pursuit of understanding the ways our bodies, families, and communities remember and cultivate wholeness and well-being. In support of our wholeness, I bring culturally responsive somatic and relational approaches, along with a psychodynamic lens, to therapy with individuals, couples, families, children, and teens. My training in infant and maternal wellness, Relational Somatic Healing (RSH) and conflict transformation informs the way I approach attachment, emotional attunement, and nervous system regulation to promote embodied healing and trauma resolution.

I support people navigating the often overwhelming and lonely experience of healing from c-PTSD, or complex relational trauma. Early trauma, whether from unmet needs or overt abuse, can warp our sense of self and imprison us in frozen fear, shame, or reactivity, impacting every aspect of our lives. Therapy can help us find more freedom and connection – to all the lost and disowned parts of our psyches; to our amazingly resilient bodies, fiercely compassionate hearts and creative spirits; to other beings, community, and nature; to the present moment; to meaning and purpose; and to a felt sense of safety, agency, and possibility.

Together we’ll reduce anxiety, improve communication, and strengthen resilience so you can feel more connected — to yourself and to those you love.

I provide services in English, Spanish, & French.
I believe shared humor and relational connection are key for effective therapy. My goal is to meet you where you are, with a grounded, pragmatic approach.

I also offer coaching services for professionals, those in the healthcare/wellness field, and graduate students. I enjoy supporting clients through the processes of self-development, self-innovation, radical acceptance, and growth.

Most people seek out a psychologist when they have truly done their best to resolve their difficulties on their own. When you can't see your own emotional blind spots, feeling stuck and distressed can ripple through many areas of your life. Perhaps this is your first time seeking out a therapist, or perhaps you are returning to psychotherapy for a fresh perspective. As a psychologist with over 17 years of experience, I have a seasoned understanding of what leads people to hit roadblocks in their lives, in areas including work, school, marriage, parenting, family, and intimate relationships.

My goal is to help people regain balance in their lives, deepen their understanding of self and achieve a level of awareness that alleviates helplessness and creates choice and ultimate change.

You may be caught in anxiety, stress, or repeating patterns in your relationships that feel hard to shift on your own. Or maybe you're navigating a life transition, career pressure, or a version of yourself you're trying to understand better. Either way, you're ready for something to actually change.
I work with individuals, young professionals, students, parents, and children in San Francisco/Marina district, Mill Valley/Marin, and online across California and Oregon. My clients are often thoughtful, self-aware, and genuinely motivated — many are high-achieving professionals navigating burnout, work-life balance and uncertainty.

Most therapists will say they specialize in what you’re dealing with. Given my decades of experience, I have become fairly scrupulous about the clients I choose to work with. I see therapy as collaborative. If you’re ready to put in the work necessary for change, you’ve come to the right place. If the following sounds like you, feel free to reach out to me now: You know what you want to change in your life; you realize that a commitment to change means that most of the work is going to be on your end; and you're ready to trust in someone to partner with you.

I am an experienced integrative psychotherapist and Jungian psychoanalyst with over 20 years of clinical experience. I work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress management, health issues, and job and life transitions. My approach is very relational and collaborative. My goal is to help you explore what gets in the way of moving forward – difficult feelings or thoughts, old patterns, childhood conditionings – and help you regain an authentic connection with yourself and life.

Every Relationship can be seen as a "long conversation". I can help you have better conversations with the people you love and/or happen to encounter in your daily life. In Individual/Couples/Family (including Sibling) therapy, I can offer new communication skills and increase your understanding and empathy of your own thoughts, feelings, and wants in a way that will make you feel more empowered, more courageous. Getting to know - and accept - our true feelings, intuitions, wants, etc. is the first step to increasing our tenderness towards ourselves and others, and maybe, sometimes, even some inner peace, and a sense of humour.

I have 20+ years experience assisting clients to overcome issues related to Anxiety, Mid-Life Crisis, Burnout, Anger, Depression, Addictive/Compulsive Behavior. My clients say they appreciate my "genuine way of connecting", my "warm, grounded, interactive therapy sessions"; my "solid multi-cultural competency". I am not the kind of therapist that sits and nods. I actively work with you to explore what is happening and identify the best possible solutions.

I have been treating patients for more than twenty five years.
My area of specialization involves the treatment of loss, grief, trauma and the anxiety disorders that sometimes accompany these events.
Traumatic events can bring a host of overwhelming emotions that people may not have the skills to cope with effectively.
I endeavor to bring insight into the nature of trauma and introduce skills that help people to cope more effectively. Once this is accomplished, I work with people to help them find more balance and meaning in their lives.

Do conversations quickly turn into arguments, distance, or silence? I work with individuals dealing with high-conflict relationships, anger, communication breakdown, trust issues, family stress, anxiety, depression, and major life decisions. I bring 30+ years of clinical experience, including foster care, CPS, domestic violence dynamics, court-involved families, and complex relationship systems. My therapy helps clients reduce emotional reactivity, understand painful patterns, and communicate more effectively. Couples work is offered as coaching, not therapy.
