Concerns for my adult clients most often include depression, anxiety, loss, bereavement, infidelity, divorce, trauma, relationship/communication difficulties, parenting struggles, life transitions and executive functioning/low productivity.
I have been in practice as a licensed psychologist for the past 28 years in Marin County where I was also born and have raised my two boys. My approach is integrative as it considers all relevant biological, psychological and environmental influences on a person’s well-being and areas of distress. Therapy sessions leave ample space for attachment-based processing of one's inner struggles and vulnerabilities as they naturally arise in the midst of a caring therapeutic relationship. They also include collaborative, practical, and hands-on problem solving as well as exploration of CBT strategies appropriate to the developmental age.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and I enjoy treating teens, adults and older adults experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, PTSD, relationship issues, perfectionism, and stress related to life transitions.
I believe everything has meaning, even pain. Oftentimes, the function of such suffering feels unclear or arbitrary. My approach to the work seeks to understand the motives and desires (both conscious and unconscious) that are maintaining painful patterns that feel hard to break. Through embarking on this journey together, it becomes easier to face uncomfortable truths that have stifled your growth in some way while gaining new tools for deeper fulfillment. I hope to provide an opportunity to increase insight while relating to yourself and others in a new way that allows for more authenticity, playfulness and connection in your life.

With 20+ years of experience and certification as a perinatal mental health therapist, I help women with fertility challenges & loss, pregnancy/postpartum, childless not by choice, trauma, mood & anxiety.
Therapy for Women - You may be navigating a challenging fertility journey, or feeling stressed about your “biological clock.” Or maybe you’re unable to stop thinking about pregnancy loss, or a difficult childbirth experience. Or you’re pregnant or postpartum, but it's been a long road to get here, and it doesn’t feel the way you expected. Cycles of hope and disappointment can become overwhelming. Sometimes you wonder if you're doing something wrong; it seems so easy for everyone else. The stress impacts your relationships, work, sleep. You've pushed through difficulties in the past, but toughing it out alone isn't working this time.

I believe that changing our focus to the more positive, changes our brain for the better, so that it works with us instead of being inclined towards fear, stress and anxiety.
I believe that feeling safe is the most necessary factor for us to create change in our lives. Each of us deserves to feel valued for who we are. Often our life experiences, beginning in childhood, have convinced us we are undeserving of happiness and good things. How can we create the life we long for if we don't believe we deserve it? Sometimes it is necessary to unlearn some of the distorted messages that came out of childhood. I can help you uncover what is in your way and help you to heal.
