I specialize in working with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship/family issues, identity, & self-esteem.
Experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma can be hard to navigate on one’s own. Through the use of integrative modalities, my goal is to help you find your way so that you can manage symptoms, feel your best, discover who you truly are, and move forward in the direction of your dreams whereby your past no longer holds you back. Using warmth and compassion, I also aim to provide trauma-informed care to discuss your struggles without judgment and safely process unresolved trauma and feelings.

Life can be extremely challenging. In response, we develop coping mechanisms that work in the moment, but that ultimately hinder our ability to connect with ourselves and others in a healthy way. With my clients, we identify destructive/productive learned behaviors. We practice new ways of interacting and work through past and present struggles, regaining the ability to feel calm, love, and joy! Some of the issues I treat are anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, addiction, and narcissism (stemming from trauma). I work with adults and couples in various stages of life (marriage, new parents, divorce, midlife, etc.).

As a licensed clinical social worker for more than 25 years I have experience with children, adolescents, adults, and families.
Now accepting new clients for telehealth or outdoor sessions. "Ultimately it is the quality of our relationships that will determine the quality of our lives" - Esther Perel. Our relationships are everything. When our connections with each are not what we hope for, it is natural to feel unsteady in the world or even sad or anxious. We often get in our own way from finding and maintaining our deepest connections with those we love. Looking to our past can give us clues to our future and how to "live our best lives" (I think Oprah coined that one!). I offer telehealth sessions as well as outdoor sessions in a local park TBD.

Transition, loss, and transformation may be universal, but everyone experiences these changes differently. Sometimes you may become overwhelmed -- like everything is too much, or you cannot connect with the person you were before. You may have become stuck in a difficult moment or are acting in ways that make things worse. You deserve to lead a life worth living. Therapy provides an opportunity to explore personal challenges and discover areas of personal growth inherent in these painful times. I welcome adolescents, adults, and couples who are looking for support and validation in the work of healing and self-empowerment.

My expertise is in working with anxiety, mood challenges, emotional regulation, and mind/body work with adolescents and adults.
We need support at different times and for various reasons. Right now, may be that time for you. Do you have feelings that are overwhelming or experience lack of feeling, and doing things is becoming more difficult? You may have feelings that are painful, intolerable, empty, lost, or feel just stuck. Do you ever wonder what would it be like to feel ok? Imagine feeling some relief, calmness, and peace. How essential is it to better understand and feel good about you? It may not be easy, but we can work together for you to feel better and content with your life.

I treat children, teens, and young adults across the diagnostic spectrum, from generalized anxiety to psychosis.
If you're concerned about your child, you've already taken a courageous step by looking here for help. Maybe you're feeling frightened, worried, or at your wit's end and unsure what to do. These emotions are a testament to how much you love your kid. Whether you're looking at therapy as a preventative measure or your family is in crisis, I can light a path and walk with you. Over the last 15 years working as a therapist, counselor, teacher, and coach, I've developed a knack for connecting with kids who are hard to reach.

I specialize in working with individual adults who, despite success they may be experiencing in many aspects of their lives, are feeling depressed and/or anxious, and who may have reached a point where their life lacks a sense of purpose and meaning. Ideally, clients I work with are willing to explore their past for the purpose of identifying patterns in the way they have behaved and felt, and for the purpose of understanding how these patterns may have developed. Then, I will help you identify specific changes you may want to consider to help you move forward.

I work with teens and adults by predominantly using an attachment-based approach, whilst drawing from mindfulness-based CBT.
My life is spinning out of control. I don’t know what to do with myself. How will I ever cope? Will this ever end? If you have ever experienced these thoughts or something similar, you are not alone. Whether finding a new job or settling down with a partner, sometimes life feels like a never-ending struggle. How you maneuver through life’s difficult circumstances can be emotionally and physically challenging. For example, moving to another country, city, or town (as I did when I migrated from London England to California) or the dramatic changes one experiences at the loss of a loved one.

I have had success treating children, teens, and adults facing issues around identity, neurodivergence, ADHD, sensory-processing and relational trauma.
I believe that the body is an important part of talk therapy. I use a variety of Somatic and Mindfulness practices to help my clients slow down and tune into themselves.
