I have more than 12 years of professional experience working with clients with histories of trauma, substance abuse and codependency, stress and anxiety, depression, and attachment issues. Clients have included incarcerated youth, their families, and the Court system, as well as children in foster care. I have also facilitated groups for members of the CA Lawyers Bar Association where individuals addressed issues of substance use, mental health, or disciplinary issues affecting work performance. Despite their differences, all have shared a desire for greater connection with others and a deeper understanding of self.

Specializing in addiction, codependency, and women's issues. My approach to the therapeutic process is one that stresses creating a safe, trusting, respectful relationship with my clients. I recognize that different people respond to different interventions and I am comfortable with an eclectic approach to foster change. I am naturally someone who enjoys people and engaging them in examining what they value and want for their life. Life is a series of choices. Insight is vital but lasting change happens when we do something different that is effective in building our self and a new perspective on life's possibilities.â;

Do you struggle with trust, getting close to others, self-esteem, or boundaries? Do you have a history of unstable, toxic or failed relationships? Is it difficult to regulate your emotions so you cope in maladaptive ways (food, sex, addiction, anger, high-risk behaviors)? Are you a first responder who feels like Jekyll & Hyde, bouncing between their “shift” and “life” identities, not feeling fully confident in either? Do you have a constant fear of failure, messing up, or disappointing others? Do you feel exhausted from trying to be a “normal” person when inside you feel like anything but normal?
