Hello! I am a therapist who draws heavily on approaches such as EMDR and Internal Family Systems to help someone make deep changes in their life. Common issues include relationships, work, health or some other kind of painful or challenging transition. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stressed, burned out, stuck, or overcome by confusing emotions. I can work closely with you to help you gain clarity and confidence. I would collaborate with you to explore in a very curious, accepting and compassionate way what you need to feel empowered to create a more meaningful and satisfying life for yourself.

Tech executives and their families - While the Valley is innovative and pays well, ambitious people end up in an always-on environment feeling lonely, anxious & overwhelmed. You feel that you are never good enough. Immigrants & families - Your move to the Bay Area that started as dreams of a better life filled up with conflicts because of acculturation issues and a lost support system. If you have experienced the gifts of psychedelics, the promising pathway to healing the soul. I hope to be able to guide through your journeys and to help them integrate.

Therapy is a highly personal and unique process for each person. I strive to meet you where you are at in your life with a genuine and non-judgmental approach. We will work together to collaboratively identify where you feel stuck, to explore your values and what brings your life meaning, and to gain a deeper understanding of yourself both individually and in relation to others. We will also seek to increase your sense of self, mindfulness, and self-compassion in the service of pursuing a life that brings you authenticity and purpose.

I have worked for over 25 years with folks who have struggled with a range of internal, interpersonal, relational, and environmental challenges and questions. This includes: difficult thoughts; "stuck" patterns of behavior, including addictions; persistent sadness and depression; relationship and family difficulties; loneliness; thoughts of life-and-death; trauma; identity and sexuality questions; experiences of madness; and other difficult life situations. I focus on working with adolescents (16+), young adults (18-25), and adults of all ages. I also work with men of all ages on questions of masculinity and "manhood".

Many of my clients want to feel better- to change their situation- with the support of someone who understands what it is like to feel lost or invisible. Many have hard jobs, work remotely, are either separated from family and friends or feeling alienated. My clients feel angry, isolated, lonely, anxious, depressed- and stuck. The couples I see are working through life's challenges and want a couple's counselor who gets them, who instead of pointing blame- finds solutions. Clients range from Hollywood to military, and teenagers to construction workers. Whatever your challenges, I will meet you there and help you navigate through.

There are many reasons you may be seeking therapy: you may want help with a specific issue (divorce, loss, depression, anxiety), you may not be exactly sure why you want help other than a vague sense that things aren't right, or you may be experiencing discontent, anxiety or depression even though you function at a high level and are living a "good" life.

I work best with individuals and couples who are interested in understanding how they got stuck and who want to develop skills and insights to move forward. Everyone gets stuck in their life or relationships at times. Perhaps there is job stress, a new baby, a divorce or break up, sexual/intimacy problems or a last child leaving home. Sometimes we know we are distressed but don't really know why. I strive to create a safe and accepting atmosphere in my office that enables people to be less reactive and more thoughtful and creative in addressing their conflicts.

My goal as your therapist is to help you thrive, not just survive. Together, we’ll co-create a safe therapeutic experience to reflect on how internal narratives and patterns are shaped by systemic, historical, political, or familial stories. I can help you navigate past traumas, tackle current life stressors, or move through major life experiences such as conflict, career/ school/ family transitions, and grief. We’ll explore how interpersonal and structural based trauma manifests in our bodies and pathways to metabolize those experiences in your nervous systems, reconnect with your humanity, find balance and joy.

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I am a Certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapist with EMDRIA. EMDR accesses the brain's innate ability to overcome the obstacles of past trauma. I understand how past traumas can lend to people feeling "stuck," and can contribute to a great many symptoms and problematic behaviors. I work with people from age five and up, to help overcome challenges, particularly those which are compounded by past traumas. I am ready to help you to learn new tools to overcome your current and past challenges and to move toward future peace and ease.

I imagine therapy as a means of deepening self knowledge and part of that is learning to recognize the messages that your body is sending you. Well-versed in the language of the body, I am skilled in facilitating the process of reintegration - learning to listen to what your body has to tell you, translating the messages from your own body, and utilizing the information of your lived somatic experience as part of your decision-making process.

The majority of my clients identify as LGBTQIA+, Black, Indigenous or People of Color (BIPOC) and I work with individuals of all ages. Clients tend to be navigating mental health symptoms like low mood and motivation, panic, thought spirals and dissociation. Common issues are related to independent living skills (financial, work, educational stressors), interpersonal skills (social anxiety, family of origin, immigration and cultural stressors), and self-esteem. Symptoms are frequently related to existing within mainstream expectations of cisgender, white, heteropatriarchy, able-bodied, financially privileged, capitalist culture.

When we feel overwhelmed by feelings of sadness or our inability to cope with everyday life problems, often our interpersonal relationships suffer, or we may face difficulty in concentrating on work or studies. We either end up internalizing our frustration and become withdrawn, irritable, anxious, or addicted. Or we may externalize and become aggressive or abusive, etc. Further, sometimes there are certain unresolved/unidentified issues that may have been silently creating conflicts in our lives, and as a result, may have been holding us back from performing at our best.
