I am licensed in California with over 25 years of professional therapy experience working with adults, couples, children and teens and family. I have experience working with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting issues, career challenges, women’s issues, family conflicts, marriage conflict, pre-marital and divorce, domestic violence, gender, identity, trauma and abuse, & coping with grief and loss and dealing with long term illness and pain. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines Person centered, Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral therapy, Humanistic, Gestalt and Satir, Psychodynamic, Art and Narrative and Rational-Emotive therapy. I am also currently training in EMDR for trauma and Eating Disorders. I will tailor my treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I applaud you for having that courage. I am here ,to support and empower you in that process and start therapy where you are in this very moment.
