I work with children and teens struggling with problems around school, mood and behavior while providing developmental guidance and effective parenting skills for parents. I work extensively with adults struggling with relationship and mood problems while providing secrets of effective communication.. Through providing a safe and relaxed environment, I guide them through a process of self-examination of their own patterns of thoughts, feelings, and relationship styles that kept them from getting what they want.

Hello and welcome. Life experiences can be complex, challenging, at times confusing & overwhelming. While this is all so normal, many folks struggle to navigate the difficulty of these experiences. I truly believe we’re not meant to struggle through these waves all on our own. I have experienced how effective therapy can be in helping people move through past traumas, in transforming their lives and having more space for peace, connection, joy and freedom. I love my work with children, teens and adults, and have found it to be so gratifying to take part in the steady unfolding of an individual's or family’s transformation.

Self-discovery is a unique journey that we all take. Our experiences, intersectional identities and environments are constantly shaping who we are. This can be an exciting and challenging time in which we tend to engage in a reflective process as various questions arise. “Will I fit in here?” “Who is there to turn to for guidance?” “What does this experience mean for me?” Individual, couple and family therapy can be an integral part of working through challenges, all of which I fully embrace on the therapeutic journey.

You're using drugs/alcohol too much, and you can't stop. You are lost, miserable and scared, and you want to be found. I offer a compassionate, supportive and direct approach to help you meet your needs and achieve your goals. You're ready to explore your underlying, and probably ancient, beliefs that you hold about yourself and that fuel chronic negative thoughts and behaviors. We will work together to rediscover your authentic self, that person who was somehow left behind and is waiting for you to come back. I provide an eclectic approach. You receive a personal assessment, then focused treatment that best fits you.

I provide a safe and supportive environment to help clients explore new approaches to ongoing life challenges. My optimistic and caring style support self growth and empowerment. Part of my role as a therapist is to help my clients establish realistic goals that bring about positive change. I have been working with teens and adults for over 20 years. I have worked in local high schools and the County of San Mateo with both teens and adults. Some techniques I use suggest that our thoughts affect how we behave. Therefore, if we work on more positive self talk, we may notice changes in our overall mood and behavior.

At moments in life we find ourselves feeling lost and overwhelmed. Not knowing how to behave, manage thoughts and feelings, recover from life circumstances. You may feel a lingering inner turmoil preventing you from living fully. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. I approach therapy by helping you sort through layers of injury and protection that surround you, to access the deepest core of your being. I can help you break through old patterns that no longer serve you. It is investing in yourself by carving out time in therapy that can pave the way to more aliveness and connection to authenticity with yourself and others.

Changes are hard, but not impossible. I believe lasting change occurs through profound self-understanding and awareness.

My role is to provide a safe environment where a trusting relationship can be built. By listening to your stories, I will help you process the thoughts and feelings that emerge in order to develop a deeper understanding of your past traumas, inner conflicts, and destructive patterns. These newfound insights will then guide you to make changes in your current relationships or life situations.
