Do you want to feel better about your self and improve your relationships with others? My approach is grounded in Humanistic/Existential psychology and incorporates Cognitive Behavioral and Mindfulness-based techniques. Combining these approaches, the goal is to create a non-judgmental "curious" understanding about your emotions and yourself as a whole. It is my hope that you find acceptance for your emotions and all parts of yourself. We will also identify reactive thoughts and behaviors and replace them with intentional responses. Through intentional living, you can create and live a life that is meaningful with profound connections to others.

Concerned or Conflicted? We are having problems communicating, and we keep going around and around in the same old arguements. Can you help? I've lost that loving feeling, can I get it back? I'm not sure what to do because our relationship is in a rut. My partner and I are so busy with the kids, work, and life that I/we forgot about our relationship and are unsure how to reconnect? I've felt so disconnected and lonely that I sought out an affair, and now want help sorting through the guilt and confusion.

Living with chronic pain or a chronic illness can be challenging. But finding the right support to help you on your journey can be transformative. I worked for 9 years in the Pediatric Pain Management Clinic at Stanford University School of Medicine teaching patients coping skills for better managing pain and improving function. Skills I teach typically align with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Hypnosis, and Mindfulness Based interventions. I also have training in EMDR to address trauma, and have specific focus in Medical Trauma. In addition to working with individuals with medical conditions, I also treat anxiety and depression.

Those I work with often experience preoccupation and rumination that distract them from accessing joy and living in the present moment. Although uncertainties in life will never cease, we can learn skillful ways of managing them. My approach is balanced: recognizing anxiety as being an inevitable part of the human experience while helping to manage and reduce it. Defining your values and deeper sense of meaning will serve as motivators and anchor our work. Together, we will address how avoidance and control strategies interfere with the changes you’d like to make in your life and collaborate on a path to action.

Anyone who has ever experienced trauma cannot overlook the excruciating pain and fear it instills in the body and mind. Such pain, if left unattended may morph into depression, anxiety, chronic physical pain, and profound sense of loss and continuous grief. It can mask our identity and destroy our lifestyle. We turn out to be disoriented, stuck, and confined. Our lives become foreign to us. We find ourselves witnessing its broadcast, as opposed to fully experiencing it in the moment. Hence, we turn to our defenses in the form of compensatory behaviors, such as addiction and compulsions or lose the meaning of life.

Becoming a mother, whether for the first time or again, can be a difficult change that can often lead to unwanted anxious thoughts, depression, and self-doubt. You may worry about getting it “right” or feel overwhelmed. Before you were a mother, you had another identity and may be trying to get back to yourself. Some moms struggle to bond with baby, but you can learn to nurture a trusting attachment. Becoming pregnant and giving birth can be a powerful experience and you may want to feel more prepared or process a traumatic birth. You deserve support and skills to ease the unique challenges and vulnerable moments in this journey.

Feeling stressed out, anxious? Life doesn’t have to be so overwhelming, upsetting, and discouraging. You may feel like it’s not safe to be your “True Self”, or that you’re not even sure what that means. But you know it’s calling to you. Under the worry, loneliness, anxiety, or sadness, there’s an inkling of what it would be like to be happy, peaceful, and fulfilled – but it’s elusive. Perhaps you’ve even tried all the “right” things to heal and discover yourself, like self-help books, mindfulness, meditation, yoga – years of personal growth work – and they haven’t been enough.

We are unfortunately not born with a manual on how to live life. It’s unpredictable complexities jolt us out of the path we had so carefully planned for ourselves, and leave us in a place of feeling lost. These obstacles can appear in various ways; parenting, relationships, work, loss, violence and sometimes do not appear at all except for a knot in our stomach. What does one do when the next step is not clear? It is in these moments of uncertainty where I can be of help. There is no right or wrong reason, or person, for therapy; it is an opportunity to put life on pause for an hour, while we work together to uncover the next step.
