English
| español I provide care for clients who reside in California. I work with people who are interested in improving: Depression; Social Anxiety and other specific phobias; Generalized Anxiety; Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder; Panic Disorder; Health behavior (e.g., adherence, coping with chronic illness, managing chronic pain); Smoking cessation; Insomnia; Trauma/PTSD; Issues related to experiences of LGBTQI+; Sexual health; Grief; and Stress.
My approach to treatment centers around supporting clients in reaching their own goals through individualized use of evidence-based treatments in a way that is client-centered. In short, I approach my work collaboratively while simultaneously structuring treatment to maximize client success.
Engaging in therapy can sometimes be challenging. With this in mind, I do my best to create a safe space for patients to explore their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors as they relate to their therapy goals. I work collaboratively with my patients to overcome the obstacles that are getting in the way of a more fulfilling life.
