ADHD Therapists in Pleasanton, CA
Thank you for visiting my practice. Many people seek psychotherapy for relief of emotional difficulties related to anxiety, depression, life transitions, as well as relationship and work difficulties. When practical solutions to psychological setbacks do not lead to emotional relief, there may be deeper issues to uncover to achieve better insight and self-understanding to better cope with life’s challenges. In my approach, I focus on facilitating a safe, honest, empathic environment for clients to understand themselves and their challenges in the service of creating enhanced personal growth and emotional relief.

With cross-cultural living and working experiences, I enjoy working with children, teens, and their parents to help address developmental challenges, relationship conflicts, emotional struggles, behavioral difficulties, and other mental health issues that they may encounter in daily life. I deeply believes that childhood experiences and parent-child relationships could play an extremely important role in one’s personal development and, by helping to build a secure enough emotional bond among family members, can create a power of healing throughout everyone’s life.

My true passion is working with children and adolescents. I have found that by being honest and compassionate, even the most resistant teen tends to open up. Most people have a hard time trusting a stranger, kids and teens are no exception. I work to build that trust and provide an environment for people to feel safe enough to open up. I also enjoy working with adults and couples, and have discovered that they appreciate this approach as well.

I am both a Grief Specialist and Psychotherapist. My goal for my clients is always" clarity and empowerment". I work interactively, compassionately, with depth, and often with humor. I work with a combination of heart intuition and practical experience. The CBT distorted thoughts that include thoughts like "should", "never, always", and "catastrophizing" can feed our anxiety. I can point to resources for relaxation tools. You may have noticed that new losses open up old grief and trauma.
