This world can be really hard to live in. But humans can be resilient! Anxiety, grief, illness, depression, trauma, injustice & change sometimes cause us to lose joy, purpose & meaning. I help people grow, rebuild, & find their best life, even in the midst of painful experiences & emotions. I am committed to evidence-based treatment guided by authenticity, kindness, social justice, creativity, curiosity, collaboration, flexibility, & patience. I have a special love for working with creatives – musicians, artists, actors, etc. I am a staunch ally of the LGBTQI+ community. I have a passion for being a therapist for other therapists.
Licensed for 22 years, I am expert in CBT, especially Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). I am collaborative & client-centered. I provides resources & recommendations every session so you can learn & practice new tools. You will feel warmly supported & will be an active participant in your own growth. I offer telehealth in California & Florida.
All humans have worth & deserve rich & meaningful lives. Sometimes life rears up and gets in the way. I am proud of my ability to recognize and celebrate people’s strengths and help people build hope & self compassion. I am happy to offer a free 30-minute consultation to answer questions & to decide together if there is a good fit.
