I was a clinic director for Contra Costa County for many years and have an interest in leadership and executive coaching.
I am a licensed psychologist with over 40 years of experience. I continue to practice, yet in a narrow scope of interest. I am offering psychotherapy only to returning patients, as well as those seeking services for social anxiety, and performance anxiety (with an emphasis and sports and athletic performance). Additionally, I offer executive and leadership coaching, which falls outside the purview of psychotherapy.

Coaching is carving out the time for honest introspection and growth that results in positive lasting change.
What I offer is a partnership each month and I provide a safe container that supports deep healing and personal/professional growth while helping foster healthy habits and showing up for your life in a way that is meaningful and empowering. I offer space for uncovering deeper emotions and grief that may be beneath the surface and coming out into your life in surprising ways, like crying at inopportune times, getting overly angry and resentful, getting stuck in despair and feeling broken or not enough, or like you’ve failed yourself or others. You will receive compassionate listening, truthful reflections, and practical tips.

Have you ever wished you could get in-person therapy without having to sit in an office with the therapist? Do you feel too busy to schedule both therapy and exercise into one day and wish the two could be combined? If so, then "walk and talk" could be a good fit for you. I offer the opportunity to receive counseling or coaching while outside in nature moving your body. Research demonstrates that both exercise and spending time outdoors in sunlight and green spaces provides a reduction in symptoms associated with depression, anxiety, and stress while improving mood overall. I also offer zoom or in person sessions.

My approach is by use of empathy, strengths assessment, and supportive coaching, influenced by Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused, and Family Systems Theories.
My focus in therapy revolves around relationships and support. The most important relationship I speak of is our relationship with ourselves. To be truly whole we benefit from a well developed relationship with ourselves to then be able to have good relationships with others. This comes from learning and honoring our strengths and our limitations. In fact, one's limitations can grow into strengths when addressed from a position of self-care

I also specialize in collaborative divorce coaching and co-parenting mediation for couples going through separation and divorce.
Seeking Change? I want to welcome you to what might be one of the most important steps in your life. People come to therapy with a problem to which they cannot find a solution. Often it is how the problem is being defined that does not allow a solution. It is then the task of the therapist to help you redefine the problem so you can arrive at workable solutions. Successful therapy helps you move forward with what we can call a new and better "normal".

Coaching Therapists
Life coaching is an increasingly popular profession that has no specific licensing or academic requirements. Though psychologists also often consider themselves life coaches, these therapists don't focus on treating mental illness. Instead, they help individuals realise their goals in work and in life.
