I love working with women who want to move beyond trauma, anxiety, narcissistic abuse (parent/authoritarian only-not romantic) and love working with women who have children or adult children with exceptional needs. I believe that with effort, consistency and the right tools, people can not just survive but thrive. I am licensed in both California and Arizona. I am a international Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy therapist, having completed extensive training at Oxford University in England. I have been a therapist for over 35 years and I have trained in many, many modalities. View 13 Photos I'm trained in many different psychothe
I'm trained in many different psychotherapies because I've been in practice for over 35 years and I love learning. I am extensively in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. I'm trained in EMDR, trauma, Social Thinking, Solution-Focused therapy, Transactional Analysis, ACT, Self-compassion, Sand tray (in-person) and hypnosis.
My mission is to create a warm, emotionally safe and compassionate environment for clients which is always kind, understanding and nonjudgmental. My overriding goal is to match each woman with specific treatment modalities and the psycho-education that will best support well-being and utilize each woman's unique strengths.
