Counseling can help you through challenging times and be life changing. I have dedicated myself to helping people with serious life challenges by providing therapy and education to empower my clients to make sense of their feelings, re-frame their life narratives, and develop healthy coping skills. I specialize in depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief/loss, health issues, family conflicts, immigration/cultural/racial issues, domestic violence/abuse, and death & dying. Originally from Romania, I grew up in Germany, and have lived in the Bay Area for 30 years.
I am a licensed clinical social worker. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and informed by my experience. I use a strengths-based approach with a range of brief solutions-focused, Gestalt-oriented, as well as long-term psycho-dynamic interventions. My clients appreciate my transparent and interactive style, my warmth and compassion.
Pain and suffering are part of life and if we can make sense of those challenging times, we can heal and grow. I work with clients of all backgrounds, cultures, and spiritual beliefs. I offer in-home visits for clients that are house-bound. Typically, my clients decide to work with me because they trust me to guide them toward a place of peace and hope.
