I work with each client and/or couple to develop healthy goals to support positive change, and to find a new, and more effective, way of looking at themselves and their relationships. To reach that end, I utilize an integrated approach of insight oriented psychotherapy with evidence-based practices including mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and emotion focused therapy (EFT).

I am a Clinical Psychologist, and have been in practice for 30 years. I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process, and that good treatment can be life changing. I have a non-judgmental approach, and partner with clients to identify obstacles that interfere with self esteem, relationships and goals. Often times people get stuck in redundant, maladaptive patterns of behavior. When these patterns are identified and understood, more productive options become accessible. I am proficient in both CBT and psychodynamic psychotherapy, and typically integrate both approaches and tailor treatment to meet the needs of my clients.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I view anxiety, depression, and emotion dysregulation as a relational or interpersonal problem. When one member of a family struggles, it impacts the whole family system. I provide individual therapy, including tailored exposure therapy, to help clients learn new ways to respond to their anxiety and depression, as well as couple therapy, family therapy, and parenting support to address the relational difficulties that often accompany these and other challenges.

A Marriage and Family Therapist with extensive experience working with couples, I do premarital counseling for anxiety and fear of commitment, communication when intimacy has gone. Infidelity: forgiving is possible. Divorce, remarriage, and step- parenting . I work with life's transitions, partners being on different timelines regarding parenthood, depression, anxiety, challenges of being single in a couples world, changes in career or breaks in relationships, romantic or familial. I am interactive, empathetic. My goal: connect you with your inner strengths, build up your self-esteem, and move towards the next steps of your lives.

Are you struggling with the stresses of work-life balance? Are you seeking serenity from the constant pull of technology and social media? Are you transitioning to a new phase in your life-new job, relationship, parenting , an "empty nest"-and looking for some guidance and support as you adapt and grow? Are you looking simply for more mindfulness and positivity in your daily life? My practice is based on the principles of positive psychology-the scientific study of optimal wellbeing-and I use solution-focused techniques to help you move toward your goal through practical, clearly-defined action steps.

I come to practice with an integrated, flexible approach to treatment that considers how personal experience and family history, as well as constitutional profile, inform behavior, decisions, relationships as well as beliefs about oneself, others, the world and the future. I take a strength-based, collaborative approach to enhance an individual's sense of worth, vitality and efficacy and build healthy, gratifying relationships. My approach is integrative, exploring the psychological factors that contribute to distress while offering practical, logical strategies to restore balance, meaning and strength in a gentle, non-threatening environment.

I approach my clients from a place of empathy and compassion for the issues that have led them to seek support. In a safe, transparent, and non-judgmental way, I collaborate with them to better understand how past experiences and relationships are informing and influencing the present. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families around conflict in communication, anxiety and depression, parenting issues, reproductive challenges, coping with loss, and a variety of other issues and challenges that arise in our everyday lives.

Life can be hard at times - for all of us. Sometimes, it is because of challenging circumstances such as the loss of a loved one, an illness/health issue, or a life transition. Other times, it's difficult to recognize the cause of the challenge. From the outside, your life may look wonderful, yet it may not feel that way on the inside. You don't need to push through on your own. I am here to help. It is crucial that you feel "gotten" by and connected to your therapist. I tailor my approach to the needs of my clients, as everyone is different and there is no "one size fits all" solution to life's challenges.

The journey through life can have difficult moments and sometimes we need additional support and guidance. You don’t have to be alone. Finding a therapist you can trust and feel comfortable sharing your innermost thoughts with can be challenging. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment and believe in working in partnership with each person to help them develop and accomplish goals and learn the skills to live their best lives. I actively listen with a warm, empowering and empathetic style. Areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationships, PTSD, parenting , and family issues to name a few.

I applaud you on taking this important step in caring for yourself! Seeking help is not easy and requires hope and courage. As a psychologist for the past 17+ years, I have been privileged to share in the journey of many adults and couples as they navigate their emotions, identities and relationships. I am also a 1.5 generation immigrant (Filipina) and parent , interracially married, and comfortable with complexity and nuance. I know you are more than your roles, relationships and jobs. Together we will explore how to identify what may be getting in the way of you living a life of truth and authenticity based on your core values.
