Prompt appointment availability for Teens, Adults, & EMDR (as of 11/03/2025), convenient weekday daytime & evening hours. I’m an experienced, licensed psychotherapist whose been in full-time private practice since 2008. Therapy can help with the things that are bothering you or that are holding you back from how you want your life to be. When we meet, I listen to you, ask questions, & help guide you on a path toward solutions in a way that resonates with you. I can help you see difficult issues in a new light, find solutions that may have escaped your notice, & increase fulfillment in your relationships and life.
Common reasons people come see me for therapy (teens or adults): • Anxiety or depression • Life Transitions • Grief and Traumatic Grief • Relationships • College and Career • For EMDR/ Trauma Recovery • Other Psychotherapists/ Mental Health Professionals
It's wonderful that you're taking that important first step to get some support. I have weekday daytime & evening hours, with offices in Sacramento and in El Dorado Hills, or telehealth. Find out more on my website (link is on this page), or contact me today so we can talk further about whether therapy with me is a good fit for you or your family member.

I don't work with teens or major trauma, so having trusted clinicians I can refer to is crucial. In those cases, Sue is always one of the names I give. She's been doing this work for decades and is always professional and ethical in her work.
