You might come to me struggling to find a sense of wellness, balance, or fulfillment in your day to day life. You might feel overwhelmed and lost in the midst of too many competing demands. You might be seeking help to let go of things that are holding you back and to find new ways to navigate your experience. My approach is collaborative, supportive, holistic, and nonjudgmental. Together, we can explore your unique history, challenges, and strengths to help you sort through things, heal, and find ways to live a richer, more meaningful, and more fulfilling life.

I believe change is rooted in making the unconscious conscious. Rather than just treat the symptoms you may be struggling with, I enjoy journeying deeper with you, trying to understand the root of the issue. As you grow to understand your mind, you will begin to make more mindful, intentional life choices, toward a more satisfying life.

I believe in the innate power of human beings to heal & grow. You don't have to live with the pain of old experiences weighing you down or keeping you stuck; healing is possible & within reach. Are you struggling in relationships or at work? Are you trying to be the person, parent, or partner you want to be, but missing the mark? Do you want to finally learn to accept (& love) yourself fully & unconditionally, & allow others to love you as well? Counseling can help you find freedom & clarity and let go of what's holding you back. I'm certified in EMDR & can offer this modality for healing in addition to traditional talk therapy.

We would work well together if you are someone who is ready, open, and willing to do the "hard work" to make changes in whatever realm you want. To be able to face the brutal truths about your life and how things got to be the way they are is not a process for the faint of heart. How I work? I focus on the "whole being" by addressing inner and outer worlds, the mind, the heart, as well as the body. I encourage you, for whatever reasons you have to seek therapy, to allow yourself the time to finding both a good fit with a therapist and an approach to therapy that feels helpful to you.

A serious illness diagnosis can feel like an unexpected, dizzying blow. It can affect all aspects of your life - from your relationships and spirituality, to your very sense of self. I help individuals and their family members facing serious illness (chronic, terminal, and new diagnosis) cope with the challenges of grief/loss, caregiving, and life transitions so they may find peace and healing in their lives.

I'm an adjunct clinical instructor at Stanford University and provide therapy with adults in my private practice. I enjoy helping clients become "unstuck" from painful thoughts, feelings, and behavioral patterns. Examples include feelings of low self-worth, difficulty feeling connected to others, intrusive or "looping" thoughts, trouble managing anxiety and worry, or difficulty moving forward from a traumatic event or period of life. I help clients cultivate understanding and clarity, address problematic thinking patterns, make changes where necessary, and develop acceptance and adaptation when needed.

Sometimes you can sail through your life issues just fine without any professional therapy help. Other times, therapy can help you navigate difficult times, which are inevitable given that life is sometimes unpredictable, odd, and even painful. Therapy can help smooth the bumps in the relationships that you have: both within your own self and with others.

Most clients come in with unhealthy ways of coping with life. My goal is to get a better understanding of their needs and to help them accomplish their goals. A lot of clients have emotional dysregulation and once they learn healthier ways of coping, their life gets better. It can be a long road, however, learning these skills are life long skills that can enhance their life.

From childhood to adulthood, our experiences shape how we navigate life’s challenges, joys, and transitions. At times we can feel out of balance and like we’re not living as our truest selves. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I create an environment where people feel seen and safe to explore themselves and their relationships with curiosity and compassion. My approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration, with the belief that you have the inner resources you need to create healthy paths forward and develop self-awareness and self-compassion. Sometimes we just need a little support in order to rediscover our internal strengths.

Taking the steps to care for yourself and your mental health shows that you are ready for change. When coping styles or life experiences challenge our ability to navigate the world, we often need help to get a different perspective and learn new skills. You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship or family issues, self-doubt or negative thinking, or going through a life transition. Unresolved conflicts or trauma from the past may be getting in the way of creating a more fulfilled life. By offering nurturing support along with concrete tools, my hope is to offer a compassionate perspective to encourage healing.

Finding yourself or a loved one in a place of internal chaos can feel unmanageable. When you feel overwhelmed in your mind, body, & emotions it can leave you in a dysregulated space. Struggling with difficult relationships either within yourself or with others can have part of you falling back into habitual behaviors. Sometimes you try to avoid your thoughts and feelings as a way to disconnect from internal struggles. You want to feel happy with yourself, relationships, and life so desperately but things seem to fall short. Unfortunately, we all experience events or situations in our lives that can leave us confused, hurt and lost.
