Waitlist for new clients
I primarily use Internal Family System therapy with my clients, a non-pathologizing evidence-based model which helps a person access the life affirming qualities of their core self, and to bring that healing energy to the places inside that are tired and suffering. In addition, my work is informed by Somatic Experiencing, and I am trained in EMDR.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice for 40+ years, I provide relational psychotherapy for individuals and couples. In our initial meeting we identify the problem areas and conflicts causing psychological or emotional distress. Understanding the core issues will lead to a treatment approach, designed specifically for each client or couple. We utilize each persons strengths, coping skills, and life experience to reduce and manage anxiety, depression, self esteem issues and resolve internal or external conflicts. Effective psychotherapy can have a profound impact on mood, behavior and quality of life at all levels.

I work best with people who feel their world crumbling in some way. Whether you're pushed beyond your breaking point by life stressors, managing difficult life transitions, or want support transforming a precious but challenging relationship into a more satisfying state, I look forward to walking that path with you. As painful, varied, and disorienting as mental health symptoms can be, I deeply trust that they are rooted in a need for support and change. I trust my clients are striving for meaningful, satisfying lives and relationships and work to bring those goals into fruition regardless of our starting point.

As humans we are beautifully flawed. We all go through periods of instability, overwhelm, anxiety, depression, shame, and excessive stress, colored by our own unique life experiences. Sometimes we can manage on our own, and sometimes we need help. Perhaps you are feeling a sense of disconnect that is difficult to describe. Do you desire a sense of connection, healing, and empowerment? I am here to listen deeply, offer you some new tools, and introduce fresh perspectives.

I see adult clients who are interested in short term and long term therapy. Clients come to work on many concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, manic depression, and relationship troubles at home and at work. Most clients arrive seeking insights about themselves and their reactions to others, and they are interested in exploring new thought and behavioral patterns. I am able to help them explore both their conscious and unconscious patterns through reflection, conversation, psychological testing, dream work and sand play.

I help people heal from anxiety, trauma, and disconnection from self and others. You might be struggling to figure out who you are or how you feel. Perhaps you're anxious much of the time. Past experiences keep getting in the way of living your current life. You're struggling to make connections with friends and loved ones, or you have a hard time asserting yourself with the people in your life. You've been experiencing these issues for years, and you've tried to change them on your own, but the changes don't stick. You're ready to get to the root of things so you can really shift the way your life is unfolding.

There are many reasons why you might be looking for a counselor, but the search always involves a certain amount of courage and humility. Maybe things in life are not turning out as you've planned; or, you've woken up with a hangover three too many times or you can't quite kick your late night consumption of an endless scroll of pornography; or, perhaps, you've never quite gotten past the death of a loved one or a choice made during a heated conflict of war. Perhaps your fighting with your spouse, struggling to discern your vocation, or a myriad of other possibilities; whatever brings you, I commend your brave and humble beginning.

Are you feeling alone and disconnected in your intimate relationship? Do you wonder why you're in the same stuck pattern with your loved one and want to get some clarity and get out of the pattern? Are you also looking for practical tools to improve your communication with your partner/spouse/family members? Are also looking for a professional to help you express your emotional truth so that you feel more empowered and final emotional balance in everyday life. Or you may struggle with anxiety and depression and want to find ways to cope. I work frequently with couples where one or both are Asian descents or inter-racial couples.

You are worthy. You are capable. You are not broken. You can get through this. These are phrases that may be hard to believe for all of us at times due to various life experiences, transitions, or circumstances. While partnering with clients I use a mix of approaches, namely cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). The best fit therapy approach coupled with a strength-based perspective is used to support you in managing emotional distress, increasing self-respect, developing and maintaining new skill sets for coping, and navigating through life’s challenges.

I enjoy collaborating and exploring solutions with young adults who are adjusting to parenthood and other lifespan transitions. Your cultural experience, personal strengths and therapeutic goals are used to create the change you want to see. Parenting is one example of a lifespan transition where your identity, self care routine, personal expectations, and relational dynamics can be tested and challenging. Psychotherapy can help validate and support the adjustment to a new normal providing you the skills and strategies necessary for overcoming issues, developing fresh insight, and flourishing with a new sense of meaning and purpose.
