Couples Counseling Therapists in Fremont, CA

Welcome to my practice. I have over 30 years of experience providing therapy to individuals and couples from very diverse backgrounds with regards to ethnicity, religion, age, country of origin, and sexual orientation. The therapy I do tends to be short-term, "here-and-now" focused, goal oriented, and skills based. I believe my clients want to change their behaviors, and not just "talk" about what's going wrong. My therapeutic style is collaborative, non-judgmental, warm and compassionate. I'm not a "one size fits all" therapist because every client is unique. I offer a Good Faith Estimate at the client's request.

Or perhaps it is difficult to see the point of getting out of bed in the morning. It may be all you can do to get through the day. It may be hard to find hope that things will get better than they are right now. I may be able to help you.
