Founder of California Integrative Counseling Center, a group therapy practice in downtown San Francisco. Our team specializes in treating individuals with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, mood disorders, trauma, career challenges, relationship issues, and those going through life transitions. We provide individual therapy, group therapy for Adults with ADHD, couples therapy, teen therapy, and family therapy in person in SF and remotely in California.
Our model of therapy provides a comprehensive and integrative approach to working with clients. We often collaborate with clients' Psychiatrists and work holistically to understand what a client needs and how we can best provide them treatment. We are skilled at treating ADHD, Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria, Depression, Anxiety and relationship issues.
In my own therapeutic work, my style is collaborative, goal-oriented, and supportive. Weekly sessions become a place to reflect and build new skills to manage the stresses that may come up in day-to-day life. I support my clients in learning how to navigate life's challenges.
