Working with clients from all kinds of cultural and ethnic backgrounds is something I love doing. My first private practice was in Vienna, Ausria where I received referrals from the United Nations. My passion is in assisting with transformation. I custom-fit your sessions to what works best for you. When I experienced therapy as a client it involved much suffering; therefore I made a commitment to make therapy as comfortable, fun (laughter is a great healer) and as easy and efficient as possible. I think "out of the box" and work well intuitively.

I am a psychotherapist providing individual therapy services to adults impacted by trauma. In my work I understand trauma as how we are impacted by the painful experiences in our lives and the ways in which those experiences shape the way we form relationships with others, with ourselves, and the degree to which we are able to find joy.

"Find stability, recovery and growth during life's challenges." The idea of 'going to therapy' evokes a variety of reactions. While some may be eager to see what therapy is all about and are ready for a journey of self-exploration, I tend to see people because they are struggling, they are in pain, they are grieving, feel misunderstood or are desperate for something to change. Demands are high in fast-paced Silicon Valley. Your struggles may be unseen by others--you may not know who to talk to about deeply felt concerns. I invite you into my practice.

Therapy does not have to be painful. I will help you find out what is stopping you from living up to your full potential and preventing you from living a more productive and fulfilling life. I have energy, a down to earth style, and a good sense of humor. My clients have said that they feel safe and comfortable talking to me because I am real and non-judgmental. "Feelings are like waves. You cannot stop them from coming, but you can decide which ones to surf."

Are you in pain, struggling with recent events or old patterns and you can't seem to get a handle on things? One minute, you are on the verge of tears. The next, you are out of control, or checking out to escape the wounds from the past, the stress of life, or the endless demands of other people. It spills over into pretty much everything. You ask God for help, are wornout from trying so hard and feel disconnected. What if instead of turmoil and exhaustion, you could feel lighter, a calm confidence, and a new sense of peace and freedom? It is possible and I can help.

Although I do offer a path to feeling better, staying better takes a commitment to engaging in deeper work beyond easy answers. This work is enlivening and opens out onto new ways of thinking and being. I specialize in supporting those struggling with depression, anger, anxiety, trauma, and grief, who are driven to understand and live further into their unique truth. For those interested, I also specialize in dream analysis, which can greatly accelerate one’s progress.

I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to seek out a therapist. As social beings, we all need support and at certain times we need it more than ever. Speaking to someone you can open up to and trust, knowing you will not be judged, can really make a difference in navigating emotional turmoil, relationships, stress, anxiety, processing trauma, and making our way through major life transitions. At times we may struggle with larger life questions such as, "Who am I?" and "What is my purpose in life?" I am here to help.
