My approach to therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, and action-oriented. I practice evidence-based treatments, including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Cultivating compassion-and mindfulness of the present moment-can help you learn to face the challenges in your life with courage, wisdom, and kindness, improve well-being and life satisfaction, and establish more compassionate relationships with yourself and others. I can also help you regulate emotions, change how you relate with your thoughts, and build new healthier behaviors.

Are you unhappy in your primary relationship? Have you suffered the loss of a love? Are addictions (yours or your partners) hurting you and the people you love? Would you like to have a more fulfilling sexual relationship with your partner? I have been helping couples increase emotional and physical intimacy for over 20 years. I take a directive approach to helping couples communicate more effectively. Often they find this results in more frequent supportive and loving interactions. Therapy can help you become more empowered in all your relationships. This often results in being more productive at work as well.

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.

Finding the RIGHT therapist makes all the difference in your experience and is critical to making the positive changes you desire. This is a personal decision that should meet your specific needs. It is important to pick a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and whose style fits you. My therapy style is warm, empathetic and inviting but can also be challenging. The work I do with patients is deep rooted - which means at times you may feel uncomfortable. However, my patients grow and challenge themselves in ways that continually surprise them.

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.

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.

"May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears." -Nelson Mandela. I believe that through a supportive therapeutic connection, you are choosing to develop resources for healing, uncover strengths, and meet new goals. I specialize in working with teens, adults and parents. I focus on supporting anxiety, depression, family/peer conflict, and those recovering from trauma. I have facilitated groups, served as an advisor and counselor at schools, and supported survivors of sexual violence. My approach is strength-based, solution focused, and acknowledges each client as a whole person, not just the problems they face.

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.

Seeking a therapist for yourself, your child, your spouse, a friend or loved one is often difficult. I can appreciate that and I work to create a warm, comfortable environment where my clients can focus on themselves and make the needed changes in their lives in order to live more happily. I work with adults, "tweens", adolescents, couples and families. I have a background in the cognitive-behavioral approach as well as family systems theory but tailor my approach to the needs of the client I am working with.

Thank you for viewing my page! Therapy with me is relational, dynamic, reflective and responsive. You can expect to be challenged, in a warm and supportive environment. Curiosity about relationships and how family history gets carried forward into the present guides my work with children & adults of all ages. I've worked with clients aged 0-101 with an emphasis on connection, authenticity, and mindful self-awareness to overcome a variety of conditions, including low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, phase-of-life and relationship problems. As a Somatic psychotherapist, I also utilize body-based techniques like mindfulness & movement.
