Welcome! I've been in practice since 1990, specializing in helping people who've been victims of trauma (sexual, emotional or physical abuse, assault, harassment, as well as traumatic injuries, illnesses, accidents, disasters or climate distress), in child or adulthood. I also work with people having difficulties with major life transitions, such as moving away to college or a new city; divorce or bereavement; emotional challenges in changing careers or finishing training programs; or eating/body image. Helping people break destructive or unhappy relationship patterns is another area of my work.
I provide a safe environment where we can help you resolve distress or difficult behavior patterns you may be stuck in. Understanding the source of these patterns is one step, along with helping resolve any beliefs, fears or conflicts to allow you the freedom to make new choices. Coping skllls for climate change or medical conditions is another specialty.
I served for many years as the co-Chair of the Victim Treatment Committee of the county psychological association, am on the Ethics Committee of that same group, served on the team of psychologists who evaluated victims in the LA Archdiocese priest abuse case, and am board-certified as a Fellow in Forensic Psychology for my expert witness work on trauma.
