San Francisco Psychotherapist, Berkeley Psychotherapist

Everyone has the ability to heal, grow and move forward in their lives. Nevertheless, we all encounter challenges that keep us from our goals and hinder greater emotional well-being. Therapy can give you the help that you are wanting.  

I offer an empathic and confidential place for you to bring your troubles. I provide psychotherapy for individuals, adolescents, and couples in an environment to help people feel truly seen and understood.

Respect, safety, and genuineness are the essentials of my practice. You will find me to be warm, interactive, and non-judgmental offering direct comments to help you find practical solutions that work best for your life.  

In our work together, you can increase your understanding of yourself and solve repetitive problems, find new ways of handling relationships, and develop the skills to help you navigate through life’s challenges.

You will receive personalized care as you develop specific tools, knowledge and confidence to overcome problems and address difficult feelings.
