I believe that everyone has the capacity to heal, change, and grow. Sometimes life brings us more than we can manage, and seeking help to navigate through these difficult times is often a key component for the healing process. I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families, using a holistic approach to embrace healing, growth and positive change. By providing a supportive and compassionate environment, I encourage a space where one can freely explore their feelings and challenge themselves using a client-centered and mindfulness-based approach.

I focus my work on families and adult patients. In my professional experience, I find the most growth in children by utilizing a family systems approach and accessing the client's innate strengths and desires for change. In adult patients, much of my work surrounds developing healthy coping skills and managing stress in more adaptive ways.

Hi, I'm William! As a Black, male, and associate therapist who has worked within the school system for many years, I have an affinity towards working with teenagers and young adults from many different backgrounds navigating their ever changing world. Observation is a core strength you can expect from me because I notice what you express and what's your unspoken truth. I listen attentively to all, creating a space where you can feel heard and understood. As an advocate for those who identify as or seek guidance for someone LGBTQ+, I believe in fostering support systems where individuals can feel valued and be their authentic self.

Hello! I'm a licensed clinical psychologist who's worked professionally for 8 yrs in addition to my prior 6 yrs of clinical training in various community outpatient, managed care, and hospital settings. While I have extensive experience across the age span, my current focus is adolescent, young adult, and adult therapy. My clinical specialties include trauma, adjustment/transitional challenges, and healthy identity development. Experiencing incongruence between one's expectations and reality at a critical time in one's life can lead to a cascade of mental health symptoms, impairing one's ability to respond adaptively and thrive.

I focus in Early Childhood Needs, Adoption/Adoptee Experiences, and Parent Support Needs. Children are not mini-adults, despite their best efforts to convince us otherwise! Children are ever-changing, efficiently growing into their next phase of development every-single-day. Imagine, tripling in size and skills in just a year! To make things more complicated, children learn, grow, and communicate through play. No wonder it can be hard to fully know how to help our children through life's surprises. Throw in curve balls like significant life experiences of adoption, divorce, or a pandemic, and we've got a puzzle!

My teenage clients report that I have greatly helped in reducing depression and anxiety by providing a non-judgmental space where they can explore communication challenges, self-esteem issues and work on difficulties that create a challenge in their day-to-day life. I work from an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy framework, which can help teens reframe negativity, develop long-term coping skills, and be more fully present in their lives. Clients can recognize that their thoughts and emotions do not have to get in the way of taking action toward meeting their goals and making meaningful connections.

Developing a healthy relationship is challenging for all of us, but with support and skills, it is possible! If you want more for your relationship, I encourage you to consider reaching out.
Do you feel emotionally disconnected from your spouse? Do you long for deeper intimacy and reduced conflict? If so, you are not alone. It is easy to become disconnected from your partner for many reasons; work challenges, children and pressures of life in our busy Bay Area. My passion is to help couples move from disengagement to a deeper emotional bond, helping them increase understanding of self and other, and decrease conflict through Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an attachment based therapy approach that has shown to help couples move from disconnection to flourishing.

Specifically, I work with individuals (teens and adults) and couples.
As a therapist, I am passionate about supporting others in their search for greater awareness, meaning, integration, clarity, relief, freedom, and authenticity. This process often takes space and time as well as willingness and courage. I feel honored to be invited into others' unique and powerful narratives (which often may include loss, pain, loneliness, and uncertainty) and to journey alongside in a supportive and compassionate way.

My specialties are interracial and/or interfaith couples, LGBTQ+ folks, sex and intimacy issues, complicated family dynamics, and conflict averse couples.
I love you, but I don't really get you; I hear this pretty often in the healthiest of relationships, and even more so in intercultural or interfaith ones. I know firsthand how wonderful and rewarding it is–and, at times, how painful and challenging. Maybe you’ve asked each other: “How do we connect again, now that we have kids? What’s changed and why is it affecting our sex life? Are we on the same page about my family? How important is this to you?” Being in love doesn't just take work. It takes understanding and acceptance. It takes holding each other and ourselves accountable for our own growth. Let's relearn each other.
