I work with clients to resolve their anger and communication issues, leading to healthier and more intimate relationships. I have also have had training in EMDR and hypnotherapy. My therapy is in-depth, dealing with the emotional connections between childhood and adulthood patterns that keep us from enjoying life to the fullest.

I work with people of all ages and diverse backgrounds facing various kinds of transitions. Each new phase of life may bring changes that cause us to adapt and grow in somewhat unpredictable ways. Sometimes hurts from our past arise and get in our way. Whatever you're facing, my goal is to work with you to find unique strengths and creative solutions that allow you to thrive in the midst of change. I provide therapy virtually, so I can see anyone in California via telehealth. And I also see clients in person in Pacifica and San Francisco.

So you are looking for a therapist and I am happy that you have found my page. I know this is not an easy decision for you to consider coming to therapy. Therapy is a very individualized process and finding the right therapist for yourself is important. I conceptualize therapy as a collaborative process in which the therapist and client(s) work together to develop treatment content and goals. I can and do work in a solution-oriented fashion but can also go further beyond symptom relief to help clients create lasting change in their lives.
