So many of us struggle in some way. We put so much pressure on ourselves. We get sidetracked by worrying about the future. We may feel down, lacking a sense of direction. This stress can affect our sleep, our health, our relationships. 

This is where an experienced therapist can really help. To have someone just for you. Someone who’s got your back, who’s truly on your side, who works to really understand what you’re all about… that’s so valuable. Therapy can be the incubator for solutions tailored just for you. 

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy in the San Francisco Bay Area, with years of experience working with busy professionals. As a former trial attorney, I offer a practical, results-oriented approach, to get you back on track.

Types of Therapy We Offer

Many folks who contact a therapist aren’t really sure what’s going to help. They may have heard some fancy buzzwords about methods and techniques. But they usually don’t care about that stuff… they just want to feel better. 

And a one-size-fits-all approach just won’t do.

What about solutions that are tailored to you? Crafted to address what matters to you, what you’re all about? Yes please!

From a complimentary 15-minute initial phone consultation to a comprehensive assessment, it’ll begin to come into focus. You’ll be on the right path. Let’s make it happen!



INDIVIDUAL THERAPY


We all find ourselves in a rut. From time to time, we all become convinced that everything sucks. We all feel stressed about our job, our financial situation, our health, and especially our relationships. We wonder if we’re on the right path.

How can individual therapy improve your situation? By helping you:

  • Cope with stress, anxiety, perfectionism and burnout;

  • Fix interpersonal patterns that are getting in your way;

  • Connect more meaningfully with the people who matter to you;

  • Feel stronger, more free, more in control, and happier with who you are, despite where you’ve been.

Invest in yourself and your future. It all starts with a complimentary 15-minute phone call to get started.



THERAPY FOR TECH


Yes, the work can be super-interesting, and the pay is often pretty good. But working in tech can stress anyone out.

Why go with a pragmatic therapy approach geared towards the tech sector? Because it allows you to:

  • Relieve stress and burnout;

  • Address disconnection and isolation;

  • Navigate challenging situations like technical interviews, one-on-ones with difficult managers, team meetings, the demands of a launch, performance reviews, etc.;

  • Communicate more effectively with coworkers, managers and customers… not to mention friends and loved ones;

  • Find purpose and direction in your career.

Together we can figure out what’s happening for you, and devise a plan to address it. We’ll come up with concrete solutions… things you can use right away. Let’s do this!



EMDR THERAPY

With EMDR Therapy, together we can:

  • Uncover patterns that are holding you back;

  • Address things like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, alienation, excessive anger, and unhealthy relationship dynamics;

  • Heal the effects of difficult stuff that’s happened;

  • Harness neuroscience to change how you feel, for the better;

  • Practice brain-based techniques to feel more okay in difficult situations.

Certified EMDR Therapists have reached a higher level of expertise and mastery of EMDR. Since reaching certification, I’ve continued extensive training and consultation with experts in the field, to broaden the range of tools that I offer.

Want to feel calmer, stronger, more free? Hit me up for a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation to learn more about EMDR Therapy.



COUPLES THERAPY

“I love having arguments with my partner. They’re always quick and productive.”

Said no one, ever.

When misunderstandings become more extensive than they need to be when it seems like the two of you aren’t on the same path, couples therapy can help.

By working on your relationship, you can:

  • Shorten the duration and frequency of conflicts;

  • Get what you need from each other;

  • Rebuild trust after infidelity or other betrayals;

  • Improve your sex life;

  • Skillfully address issues like money, sex, in-laws, friends, schedules, time together, time apart, and more.

Let’s get you feeling less tense and more connected. Schedule your complimentary 15-minute consultation today!



ONLINE THERAPY


Whether you’re working from home, or just looking for a convenient way to make your life a little easier, online therapy is a wise choice.

You literally don’t have to leave your couch. You get to use your smartphone or whatever device you’re comfortable with. And you don’t have to deal with schlepping somewhere!

I’m a TBHI-Certified Telebehavioral Health Practitioner, with years of experience providing online therapy to California residents. I use Zoom Healthcare, a HIPAA-compliant video platform that protects your privacy with end-to-end encryption.
