I offer a supportive and calm environment. I try to infuse a blend of optimism and realism to empower and motivate clients to make the most of their lives. My therapeutic orientation is eclectic and includes Humanistic, Existential, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), action-oriented, life coaching, EMDR, and Biofeedback.
I treat individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, panic, phobias, and OCD. I offer EMDR, the 1st-line treatment for PTSD and emotional trauma. I do short-term (CBT) and long-term (insight-oriented) therapy, and have considerable experience in helping with isolation/relationships, financial anxiety, medical/sexual concerns, and work stress.
As a licensed Clinical Health Psychologist, I have worked in association with Eisenhower Medical Center (as a credentialed Psychologist) and Foothill Health and Rehabilitation Center as Consultant to dual diagnosis patients (chemical dependency and psychosis).

I generally work with a mature population of open-minded adults. My focus begins with a client's history and seeks to optimize their future. By way of example, I do not judge a client's capacity by age, and have helped many seniors end isolation by finding love, or face the challenges of retirement by re-engaging with the world. Depression and anxiety are not necessary aspects of aging.
