I have been working in the mental health field, in different capacities for 20 years. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe and inspiring space. My approach is always honest and direct, but gentle and dialogic. I take into consideration my client’s internal resources at the time and want to support them in understanding their feelings and behaviors and help guide in the journey to increased self-awareness and owned responsibility in the areas of life that have become overwhelming, with the end goal of healing and resolution.

I am a clinical psychologist licensed in the state of California. A few of my specialties include high functioning depression & anxiety, trauma & PTSD, young adults identity development, spiritual integration in therapy.  I help my clients move through “stuck-ness” and find balance in their inner world. During our session, we try to figure out how to find rest while making practical changes; look into past history and also move toward the future; honor your own values while finding ways to meet expectations from others.

I specialize in working with adults who have a wide spectrum of mental health needs and help clients identify feelings that have led to self-destructive thoughts or behaviors. I work using a mix of humor, empathy, compassion, and a great deal of respect for my clients. This is important because change is difficult and someone wanting to change for the better has already taken the first step in that direction. Currently accepting California residents only.

A healthy relationship with others and ourselves are key components to a fulfilling life. I believe everyone is equipped with the tools they need to become their best self.

Self growth and healing can occur with an open mind and ones willingness to look inward.

Compassion, science, and healer are three words that describe me as a therapist. I treat therapy as a collaboration where I help you meet your goals. I believe that therapy should be a haven where you can discuss your issues without judgment. I incorporate therapy's art, science, and compassion to tailor my therapeutic style to your individual needs. I have training and experience utilizing multiple treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Exposure and Ritual Prevention, and Written Exposure Therapy.

I specialize in working with children, teens and young adults who are experiencing struggles with identity development, low self-esteem, difficult life transitions, challenging family dynamics and/or symptoms of depression, anxiety and trauma. I am passionate about helping individuals explore all aspects of what makes them who they are. Many people come to therapy with mixed feelings and assumptions about the therapeutic process. My goal is to create a warm and nurturing space for individuals to explore themselves, build insight, and incorporate positive change in their lives.

As human beings we learn, develop meaning, and create a sense of purpose through each other and the relationships we form. In the same spirit I believe the therapeutic process is driven by the relationship formed between the client and the therapist. This is why my approach in therapy is guided by the question - "How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for their personal growth?" I strive to create an empathic, nonjudgmental atmosphere where you feel safe and empowered to work toward personal growth and creating lasting change; forming trust and leaning toward vulnerability.

The first and most difficult stage of change is asking for help. Contemplating change is often harder than taking the actual steps in that direction. Most people are pleasantly surprised with the relief and energy that comes from beginning!

I am licensed by the Board of Behavioral Sciences as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. Feel free to call or email with any questions you may have. I look forward to talking to you.

Is alcohol or another substance holding you back? Are you a professional or executive who has found that the one thing you haven't been able to overcome is substance use? Many clinicians don't truly understand the stress and loneliness that professional success can create. My experience as a senior executive and addiction professional can help you break free and achieve your true potential. Don't let substance abuse be the one thing you haven't been able to overcome as a professional. I utilize positive counseling techniques designed to capitalize on your strengths to help you overcome substance use and achieve your potential.

Are you overwhelmed? Stressed? Are you struggling with thoughts that you find disturbing? Are you in need of hope, healing, and support? If so, I can help. I work with those who tend to be the 'black sheep', who are looking to find themselves. My clients are adults experiencing work related stress, life stress, life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, navigating parenting and relationship issues. I utilize a trauma informed approach in my work, as trauma has a tremendous impact on our life, whether vicariously or first-hand. I work with new parents (moms and dads) including foster parents/caregivers and adoptive parents.

Living in the Bay Area we often get caught up running so fast, we lose sight of the changes, both good and bad, happening in the course of life.

We co-create more accurate thinking, safer, more healthy relationships, make space for more realistic understanding, provide predictability, constancy, enhanced trust, explore feelings, support emotional regulation, form new, hope-filled stories to replace frightening, traumatic ones.
