ABOUT ME
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #83812 in California; #T1913 Oregon). I have been serving the community in the East Bay since 2008 and have been based in the San Ramon Valley since 2014.
My professional experience is diverse: I have worked in the community with families of youth with significant behavioral problems, in a specialized classroom setting with teens experiencing anxiety, self-esteem issues, and depression, with people experiencing psychosis and dissociation from Schizophrenia and complex trauma, and in office settings with families working on varied issues that have included communication problems, conflict resolution, and co-parenting. I specialize in work with individual adults and teens with trauma, anxiety and social phobia, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, grief and loss, and transition issues.
I counsel teens, young adults, and families in my private practice in San Ramon. My theoretical orientation is a mindfulness-based practice that includes cutting edge treatments such as Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) therapies as well as relational and attachment work. I am local to the greater East Bay Area of San Francisco, including locally San Ramon, Danville, Dublin, and Pleasanton, but serve all of California and Oregon via telehealth.
