About
As a Bay Area native, I am aware of & accustom to the unique challenges associated with living in this fast-paced, ever-changing climate. As a Psychologist, I support my patients by combining innovative, science-based techniques & approaches with my own down-to-Earth, playful, & deeply compassionate stance. Our work together can build upon your existing strengths, learn new skills, & break free from unhelpful habits. Whether you are new to therapy, have received counseling in faith-based or academic settings, or even if you have years of therapy experience, I am prepared to make psychotherapy approachable & transformative for you.
My clinical strength & focus is supporting those who are pulled between two or more value systems; those who struggle to meet the competing demands of life. This can include first & second-generation immigrants, first-responders, students who are the first in their family to attend college, & those who are touched by the social costs of upward mobility.
Ready to get started? Me too! I look forward to answering any questions you may have about my practice or the therapy process itself. Please email me to schedule a complimentary telephone consultation.
