COUPLES - You know why there aren’t a ton of great couples counselors? Because it’s really hard work. Over the years, I’ve learned what truly helps couples and now my clients are making real, lasting changes. Through connection and practical skills, my couples move forward, communicate better, and start enjoying each other again. If you and your partner are ready for things to go better, I’d love to help you create the connection and peace you both deserve.

EATING - Perhaps you tried many things, and you still don’t feel at home with your body or food. Though you are strong, you may feel you have failed in this area. You didn’t fail! The information you were given failed you. I am a fully-recovered bulimic and a scholar on the non-diet mentality. Come learn a new way of eating and relating to your body.

The techniques I use are attachment- and body-based. Don't wait any longer to feel more at home in your relationship or in your body. I offer in-person sessions in the East Bay and online sessions throughout California.
