"I enjoy working with individuals, couples and their families. I will listen with compassion in an environment that allows you to be heard and seen in a safe and non-judgmental way. Together we will explore ways to give you a greater sense of control of the situations in your life by rediscovering your strengths and resilience. Lingering grief, anxiety, loss of personal identity and relationship issues can be overwhelming and painful. And yet these emotions can actually propel us to evaluate our choices and get back on track for a bright and hopeful future."

"I've been helping couples, families and individuals of all ages for 43 years, have trained over 200 psychotherapists at the counseling center I founded and directed in San Francisco, and continue to teach therapy students at the California Institute of Integral Studies. I use Gottman Couples Therapy, EMDR, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients create the kind of lives and relationships they truly desire. I'm experienced in working with a wide range of issues, from sexuality to spirituality, communication problems to severe emotional disturbance, parenting issues to substance abuse and infidelity."

"When I was a girl there was no one to tell my deepest darkest secrets. My life's work is to be a trusted, healing person to those in pain. My therapy room is many things: a confessional, a delivery room, a crucible, a place of radical honesty with a whole lot of grace. Most of all it is a safe place for you to tell your story, to find strength and hope, to cry, and to heal. I embrace a holistic approach which considers your spirit, mind, body, & community."

"As you know, life isn’t always easy and sometimes we need counseling to work through our issues. Together we will explore your situation, whether is it depression, stress, anxiety, how to be more outgoing, relationship issues with a spouse/partner, circumstances at work or school, or perhaps with your child/teen. During your session we will look at all areas, and unfold reoccurring patterns. We will work on different options and new strategies. I offer a safe place to share your concerns. I'm here to provide you with support, and to find new ways to cope and offer some relief as well as answers."

"With a background in education, life certificate in school psychology and neuropsychology and training at the University of Washington Medical Center and Children's Hospital Los Angeles, I work with all ages 6-96. My unique interests include Non Verbal Learning Differences and family interventions that assist for a lifetime. Creativity, science, and disciplined application are the tools in a cognitive behavioral, object relations approach that moves the client forward with responsibility, boundaries, and wise choices."

"Understanding our emotions is a skill we all must learn to prevent relationship conflict and to promote inner peace. There are reasons we have the deep feelings we experience, we just need to understand why we have our feelings and what causes us to suffer so much from them. We suffer from our emotions because something else is going on inside of us that we may not understand, or know what do about these feelings. It does not need to be this way. You can learn to know yourself better, sooth your emotions and improve your relationships with partners, kids, co-workers and friends."

"You've been dealing with this thing forever–depression, anxiety, or maybe just that familiar relationship issue that keeps popping up. That thing that makes you question your relationship or inevitably leads to its dissolution. You don't need somebody to tell you "what" it is, you've lived with it for this long and you're fairly clear on that point. But "why"? Why is it there? What is motivating it? Why does "this" keep happening? What are the unseen forces that you feel, but can't seem to name? Until we know why, we can never get down to the root of the problem–we will only be dealing with the symptoms and not the cause. "

"I believe that in order for change to occur, individuals need to feel valued, respected, and to be treated as complete, whole persons. I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where my clients can feel accepted and supported in their goals. I approach my work with the goal of increasing self compassion and confidence with a focus on my clients' strengths and emotional needs."

Together, we can better understand the internal structures driving behavior, and chart a course toward growth and health."

"I believe a person is often presented with challenges in his or her life and that sometimes we need help in facing those challenges. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples to overcome these obstacles and find solutions that lead to a balanced life. These challenges often arise from relationships, both personal and professional, from past experiences, from depression or anxiety, as well as from physical challenges such as chronic pain or illness, among many other factors."

"I believe it is one's responsibility to provide care that is informed by current research and ethical guidelines. Children exist within a family system, which in turn exists within several larger systems. As such, I take into account micro and macro influences. In addition to a scientist-practitioner approach, I believe that a sense of empathy, of wanting to hear a family's story and providing them with that opportunity are important in order to translate empirical approaches into successful treatments. I do my best to provide informed, ethical and personalized care."

"My philosophy of therapy is holistic, meaning that I believe people are made up of many parts: body, soul (mind, emotions, will), and spirit. These parts must function in a balanced relationship in order for us to thrive. How we feel about ourselves and how we view the world affects the quality of our relationships. When we can balance a positive identity with our role in the world while also remaining connected to others, we feel whole. Brokenness can occur if any of these relationships are out of balance. In therapy, I help my clients assess the lack of balance so they can figure out how to get whole again."
