Kaiser in-network provider. I receive a lot of feedback from clients who report feeling safe & open in sharing their difficulties with me, while still being challenged to consider new perspectives and grow. It's vital to feel free from judgement/embarrassment in order to overcome barriers that keep us feeling stuck. I connect well with individuals who have typically had trouble sharing with or trusting others due to facing numerous challenges & traumas throughout life. I focus first on understanding you and your needs/goals/life. I also love doing couples therapy, improving the sense of safety, trust and connection in one-another.

My goal is to see to it that by the end of therapy you leave with a whole range of new insights, skills, and confidence leading you to a more fulfilled and comfortable life. Therapy is an investment in the quality of your life. I believe it should result in valuable new ways to be with yourself and others. I help people who feel stuck, lost, and overwhelmed, or are having difficulties with relationships or harmful patterns of behavior. I'm predominantly existential, relational, and humanistic and teach a mindfulness-like process. My clients feel supported and heard, but also learn effective tools toward building the life they want.
