I believe psychotherapy offers an opportunity to know one's self with greater compassion and awareness. As an insight-oriented therapist, I am interested in exploring each client's history (family, relational, psychological) as well as identifying the emotional and cognitive habits that may be interfering with relationships, work, creativity, and/or a sense of direction or efficacy in one's life. Through this collaborative process, we can address specific emotional problems (depression/anxiety), seek resolution of a painful or traumatic personal history, and/or work towards making a change in one's relational or work life.

I work with adults dealing with PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and other issues. We often hit roadblocks in our relationships with ourselves or others, or have difficulty living life the way we want to live it. It takes courage to seek help from someone else to address blindspots or problematic old patterns. Maybe you need to learn and practice new skills, or perhaps earlier experiences need to be reworked. Sometimes change seems impossible; I know that it can be a daunting but wonderful journey to embark on.

Engaging collaboratively with you, and your unique background of joys, wounds, circumstances, and aspirations, I use multiple therapeutic approaches to meet you where you are and foster the growth and change you desire. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship, family, parenting, co-parenting, health, sex, divorce, communication, domestic violence, financial, and life transition issues. Combining compassion and directness, I weave psychoeducation into our work, believing it's helpful to understand what is happening in our mind and body as we cope with life's stressors, and how therapy helps.

Most of my work is with sensitive, creative people - artists, entrepreneurs, visionaries, healers - who find themselves stuck in patterns of self-doubt, self-sabotage, paralysis, perfectionism, anxiety, or depression. If this is you, you may feel tangled in past traumas or trying to navigate a difficult experience in the present. You might feel at odds with "normal" or overwhelmed by our current collective chaos. (!) Whatever it is, you want to make the shifts that allow you to take root and bloom more fully in your life. I help you nourish your gifts and cultivate resilience in the face of life's challenges.

I entered my doctoral program in counseling psychology with the aim of integrating what I had already learned through study of meditation and Buddhist practice with the technology of Western concepts of wellness and health. I came out with a deep appreciation for the many ways that people arrive at a counselor's door and the many ways they leave. Throughout our lives we constantly face new challenges, leaving home, coupling, parenting, careering, retiring all present challenges we've never faced before. At any point along the way we may be called on to marshal new resources or adapt old strategies that are no longer working.

I often wish I could change my professional moniker from “psychotherapist” to “life enhancer,” because that is truly what I do. I want to help you cultivate self-compassion and acceptance for who you are and where you are at in your life, while at the same time encouraging you to evaluate and change what is not productive. My style can be described as “radically genuine” – I communicate authentically, compassionately and openly. You won’t ever hear that space cadet therapist-y voice coming from me, but you will definitely hear an f-bomb or two.

I meet people where they are so we can begin the journey towards a more healthy and productive life. As a bicultural, bilingual clinician, I am well aware of how important cultural and family norms are and what role these play in our daily lives. I am sensitive to inter-generational conflicts that arise due to acculturation issues. Experience working with maternal wellness, teen & adults. Envisioning a rich and rewarding life can be challenging when you are overcome by either longstanding or daily problems.

Are you feeling stuck? I will ask the questions that lead you towards getting unstuck, whether it's anxiety, relationships, addiction, or trauma. Clients often tell me that my questions help them discover their deeper needs and fears, enabling them to start making a path towards the life they want to live. I find an artful balance between process and helping you take action. I am authentic, provide feedback, and consider myself an engaged thought partner in your process. I am not just a therapist who sits back and listens; I actively participate in your journey towards change.

I specialize in working with teens and men ages 14-35 who struggle with social anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. These issues often show up as anger, guardedness, feeling misunderstood, alone, or angry. If you have known trauma, loss, abuse, or bullying, this can have a profound impact on how you see yourself and connect with friends, partners, and family. If you feel isolated, misunderstood, or anxious around others, you are not alone. That is far from who you really are.

You worked so hard to get to where you are and now you find yourself full of guilt. You feel you are sacrificing your career and time with your family. No one prepared you for all the conflicting emotions that come with being a working mother. The toll it takes on your relationship and self-worth. It seems unfair to sacrifice your career and saying it out loud feels wrong. I get it, and you are not alone.

Hi! I'm Barbara. 20+ years of experience working with adults who experience anxiety, depression, codependence, personality issues, communication difficulties, and substance use. These issues keep us from living and experiencing our lives and make our worlds smaller. We often need to process our experiences with another individual and help us make sense of our experiences and to gain a different outlook on them.
