I offer mindfulness-based psychotherapy, with a warm and non-judging approach, for people who are experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, post-traumatic stress, infertility, and people with pain and/or chronic medical conditions. Sessions involve mostly talking therapy, and may also include (depending on your needs and interests): breathing & body sensation awareness practices; emotional regulation & distress tolerance training; simple yoga & meditation; compassion, acceptance, gratitude, and loving-kindness practices; and interactive guided imagery.
Psychotherapy, consultation, and/or classes are available, depending on your preferences and needs. Sessions last 60 minutes. Supervision for clinical LCSW and MFT interns, and mentoring for MBSR instructors are also available on a limited basis.
Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programs: I teach courses for the Palo Alto Medical Foundation (2 courses every quarter), Google, Inc., Apple Computer Inc., Stanford University, and other schools and organizations in the SF Bay Area.
