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.

Our greatest difficulties can be life's greatest gifts (in disguise) if we can learn how to translate their messages.
