I work well with hurting people struggling to understand their lives and experiences. I work well with clients with anxiety, depression, grief, loss, aging, and other challenges. I do all of my work on Zoom or phone and work from my home office. Most clients have come to appreciate the privacy and convenience of online meetings. I work to understand each person's challenges and develop a plan specific to each situation. I welcome the opportunity to help you. I am a Medicare provider.
I graduated from U.C. Berkeley in psychology and was awarded Phi Beta Kappa. I attended Fuller Graduate School of Psychology for six years where I obtained my Ph.D. in clinical psychology. I did internships at L.A. County/USC Medical Center and the VA hospital in Long Beach. But most importantly, I strive to be empathetic and caring in my work with others.
I welcome the opportunity to talk with you to see if I can be of help. With my years of experience, I feel confident that I can help you find a path forward. I take pride in my training and experience, and I can help you find the tools that will help you. I would encourage you to call to allow us to chat briefly about your situation.
