I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT 78886) and have been practicing in the Bay Area since 2006. After completing my undergrad at Stanford University, I obtained my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University. In the years following, I have worked with individuals, families and groups, across the lifespan. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, life transitions and personal growth/exploratory work. I provide affirming care for the LGBTQ+ community as well.
Psychotherapy is an extremely personalized process, unique to each client and their needs/goals. I commonly draw from the following theoretical orientations/modalities: attachment and psychodynamic theories, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, narrative therapy, positive psychology and humanistic/existential theories. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR.
Therapy is challenging work, but the end result is well worth the effort. My ultimate hope for all my clients is that they develop deeper self-knowledge and compassion and are able to lead more fulfilling and authentic lives. I consider it a great privilege to accompany clients on this journey. Please reach out to me to schedule a free phone consultation.
