Excellence, evidence-based practice, collaborative with patient, family and other care providers, and tailoring treatment to patient's unique situation are key philosophies of how I work with my patients.
I am a highly goal focused clinician committed to helping my patients overcome difficult life situations and lead satisfying lives. I use a variety of techniques grounded in health psychology, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), interpersonal and psychodynamic theories to help my patients. Psychological/mental health services I offer include assessment, consultation, counseling, psychotherapy, and neuropsychological evaluation for anxiety, depression/mood disorder, stress, poor job/academic performance, and problems stemming from relationship, immigration, chronic illness, life transition and career-life balance. I am also a sleep disorders specialist for all ages. I was a faculty member at Stanford University.

Whether it is your inner Self, childhood, sexual and/or racial identity, romantic relationship, cultural and/or generational family patterns etc.
Life is difficult. We all make our own path through life; using our wits, smarts, failed attempts, guidance and triumphs. There are no SOPs, no formula to follow, and definitely no easy answers. The right choice for one may be the wrong decision for another. Managing our emotional life is even more complex and if not tougher. Whether it's relationships with family, friends, co-workers; or facing anxiety, depression, addiction, grief & loss, self-doubt etc, here at Lotus Circle Counseling Services, we would like to invite you to a space where you could feel safe to talk things out.

I believe that my collaboration with others who are important to my clients will lead to the most comprehensive view of the person/ family and thereby, the best treatment.
I believe that all young people and parents have strengths and positive qualities that they bring to therapy. Together, we can find new ways to use these strengths to face challenges and difficult situations. My approach to therapy draws from cognitive-behavioral, client-centered, family-systems, and biopsychosocial models of Clinical Psychology. Find out more on our website (ca-bhc.com) and check out our resources for families!

Life can be really hard sometimes, whether you are a college student feeling overwhelmed or a parent watching a child struggle. If you or your child/adolescent is regularly experiencing overwhelming feelings of worry, anxiety, panic, sadness (or all of the above!) and feel stuck in them, I can help. I specialize in therapy that brings an enduring sense of calm and confidence, frees us to focus on what really matters in life, and is grounded in the latest science. I am often described as a supportive, warm, and relatable clinician who gives freedom for authenticity, humor and exploration.

Over the last five years, I have worked with young adults, couples and families as they learn to maneuver life's transitions and setbacks. Many times we find ourselves feeling trapped and stuck in a rut, hoping for change and relief. Everyone has their own personal reason for pursuing therapy and I would feel honored to support you in the process of self-discovery to find a more fulfilled and purposeful life. My approach is based on attachment as well as rooted in narrative therapy, and I strive to create a relational, respectful space where we can explore your story without judgment.
