In my practice as a therapist I use the research on what works to help my clients get the outcomes they want: better relationships, managed anxiety, less depression, and more control over life. I pursued a few paths in life before my career in mental health. I studied Modern Literature at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I worked for years
I value and enjoy working collaboratively to help you identify and overcome obstacles to inner calm, peace, and happiness. My approach is integrative and customized to address each individual client’s life circumstances, needs, and wishes. Client-centered, our work together can embrace advanced evidenced-based treatments, as well as explore h

I help people achieve greater insight into their lives. I cultivate an environment in which we can find more options that can lead to new and diverse patterns and experiences. In my approach to helping, we work together to identify old coping mechanisms which are no longer serving you well. I strive to establish a space in which we can safely evalu
Many people first come to me asking the question "Why?" Why can't I stop doing this? Why do I keep having the same argument with my partner? Why am I so sad, lonely, angry, etc.? Why can't I change this? Why am I suffering so much? Why is my body reacting this way? Why did this happen to me? As strange as it sounds, sometimes really
I value the uniqueness of each individual client and provide support and compassion to encourage clients to feel safe in expressing their current thoughts and feelings. I listen empathetically, affirming each client’s sense of worth and value, and at the same time, I gently encourage them to expand their comfort zone by asking questions and e
I lived in 3 different countries throughout my formative years which has inspired in me a love for multiculturalism, open-heartedness, resilience, and a passion for helping people heal.
