I believe that a supportive therapeutic relationship can be the springboard from which many life issues can be addressed and healed. I am warm and gentle, yet firm when appropriate. I am encouraging, nurturing and have a deep capacity for empathy. I am committed to your growth and the changes you want to make in your life. Issues I treat include anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, and relationships. I treat children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have special expertise in working with personal and collective trauma, deepening intimacy in couples, cross-cultural relationships, grief and mourning and healing friendships.
I am also an experiential therapist. I sometimes might use creative methods such as role playing and expressive arts processes to help empower you. I use these tools gently and with permission to work with you to get through painful life issues and move towards a more fulfilling life.
I am Clinical Director of the Living Arts Counseling Center in Oakland and Emeryville and direct a training program for interns who offer low-fee therapy to the community. I have also developed innovative programs that use action methods for social change, intercultural conflict transformation and intercultural communication.
