I believe in the power of relationships to help us heal and grow. Building a solid, trusting relationship with you is the most important task as we begin the journey of therapy together. Through a strong collaborative effort, I help you to re-discover your strengths and skills in order to resist the current difficulties in your life. I am an ally, a coach, and an advocate for your well being. I can help you strengthen your relationships and increase connection with the important people in your life.
I bring a wealth of life experience to my work with you. Having had two successful careers as an artist in television & film, I bring creativity, humor, compassion and mindfulness to problem solving. As a parent of teenagers, I understand the unique challenges young people have today. I listen. I am also a certified Mediator by the SF Bar (2018).
Currently, I see clients in San Francisco and in Mill Valley. I offer daytime, evenings, and weekend hours. Please contact me for a free consultation.
