It's time to start feeling better. You've tried distraction, talking to friends. But like a ball pushed underwater, your feelings of anxiety, unhappiness, grief or sadness keep surfacing. Distress disturbs your life, relationships and sleep. Worst of all, these bad feelings, like a shameful secret, isolate you. It doesn't have to be this way. Asking for help to feel better is a sign of strength, not weakness. I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples recognize and overcome the obstacles between them and their dreams. Personal growth, intimacy and self-confidence are natural outcomes of successful therapy.

I am a licensed psychologist working with children, adolescents, adults and families. I have specialty training in working with anxiety, depression and eating disorders. I specialize in CBT, Family Based Treatment of eating disorders (FBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I particularly enjoy working with families and parents.

Are you experiencing: relationship issues, anxiety, communication & intimacy concerns, infidelity, conflict, big life changes? Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious or depressed, unable to make clear decisions? Maybe you and your partner keep having the same argument with no resolution - now there's a wall between you and you don't know how to be close and intimate again. Together, we will create a calm supportive environment to promote healing, and look at past betrayals (affairs, broken promises), that may be hindering your ability to trust and move forward. Working with a neutral professional trained in mediation will help!

Once you make the decision to seek therapy, finding a therapist who "gets you" is the key element in starting the process. I focus on: eating disorders, trauma resolution / PTSD, adolescents in crisis, and elite athletes. As a psychodynamic therapist, my goal is to help clients uncover their true potential and lead a meaningful life; it's about having a life that becomes worth celebrating.

I have over 25 years of research and clinical experience in working with individuals whose lives are impacted by mood disorders. Within the realm of mood disorders, there is a multitude of life stressors and challenges that are often present. I enjoy working with my patients to help them manage and ideally overcome the symptoms of mood and anxiety disorders that have negatively impacted their lives. I primarily work with older adolescents, adults, and elder individuals, and I also work with couples and families.

Are you feeling stuck in life? Does stress at work, from life, from family, your partner or friends, feel overwhelming? I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling with depression, trauma, stress, anger, transition, grief, or anxiety issues. I provide EMDR therapy for individuals who have experienced traumatic events or adverse life experiences. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, or at your wits' end there is help for you. Together, we will help you get unstuck and cope with your life’s challenges. Let's bring happiness back to your life!

Most of us, if not all of us, come to a point in life where we need to regain our balance and redefine our goals. I know so because I have seen my clients, friends, and myself in such situations. By working together with you, I can help you to focus, mobilize your inner strength and establish new strategies to overcome problems that have become apparent. Topics that I handle (but I am not restricted to) are grief and trauma coping, relationship or family issues, anger management, and cultural or generational conflicts.

Therapy is a beautiful gift to give yourself. Giving yourself this support can be what you need to move forward in your life. Having time set aside each week to for self-exploration can be transcendental.

I offer mindfulness-based psychotherapy, with a warm and non-judging approach, for people who are experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, post-traumatic stress, infertility, seizure disorders (including atypical seizures) and people with pain and other chronic medical conditions. Sessions involve mostly talking therapy, and may also include (depending on your needs and interests): breathing & body sensation awareness practices; emotional regulation & distress tolerance training; simple yoga & meditation; and compassion, acceptance, gratitude, and loving-kindness practices; and interactive guided imagery.

Are you looking for relief from anxiety, depression, or relationship problems? Want to move to a whole new plane of interpersonal and emotional functioning? I work interactively with clients blending cognitive therapy and attention to the client's past. Helping a client understand and change what is blocking his/her greater enjoyment of life is my specialty.

I take an active and structured approach to working with you or your family to help you realize positive changes within the shortest amount of time. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 20 years of experience working with parents, children, families, and corporate individuals. My approach is strength based, collaborative, and goal oriented. My philosophy about working with a therapist is that of a team approach. The primary focus of my private practice has been on general parent coaching with an emphasis on providing educational support for learning differences, high ability, underachieving, and behavioral challenges.

I am a Psychiatrist specializing in Psychotherapy, Psychoanalysis and General Psychiatry. I'd like to welcome you to my practice.

Suffering? In emotional pain? Plagued by worries? Perhaps you are grieving a loss, or struggling with family or relationship problems? I can journey with you and help you improve your life, whether you are dealing with stress, depression, difficulties in your relationships, or seeking personal growth. I have helped many people struggling with anxiety, trauma or feeling stuck in their lives. I view symptoms not only as difficulties that need to be addressed but also as a call to wholeness and an opportunity for you to create a more satisfying life.

I work with adults, couples, youth and families. I offer a collaborative, non-judgmental approach empowering you to use your strengths, expertise and abilities to find meaning and purpose during life's toughest transitions. Through the dynamic relationship of therapy, I can help you uncover frustrating patterns and behaviors, build insight and awareness to develop and sustain healthier relationships, and move towards healing. Taking the next step to talk with someone is vulnerable, but often life altering and healing in itself.

There are many reasons you may be seeking therapy: you may want help with a specific issue (divorce, loss, depression, anxiety), you may not be exactly sure why you want help other than a vague sense that things aren't right, or you may be experiencing discontent, anxiety or depression even though you function at a high level and are living a "good" life.

Just like life,therapy is both an adventure and a risk. As a therapist,I encourage you to focus on the concept of choice. Our lives are constantly filled with the need to make choices. Should you be in a relationship or leave one? Is your current job the right one for you? Can you learn how to accept and express your needs? Choosing a therapist can be very confusing, but choosing the right therapist can be crucial to living a happy and fulfilling life.Your therapist needs to be someone that understands you and someone that you can trust.

Welcome! If you're looking for therapy for yourself, your child, or a loved one, know that you are taking a brave step towards building a support system for yourself and others. As a Silicon Valley native, I know raising children and living in this area comes with unique challenges. I enjoy working with pre-teens, adolescents, young adults, and parents. I am most passionate about supporting parents who are experiencing their own mental health symptoms or stress related to parenting, particularly for those parenting pre-teens who are going through mental health issues.

Anxiety, panic, depression, and mood swings can make you feel like you are being stalked by an invisible tiger. Depression and anxiety can make your life problems feel insurmountable. It can be a very lonely and scary experience. But it doesn't have to be. And, there is reason to have hope, particularly since you have taken the important step of reaching out for help.
