Living happier, healthier and more productively.

Bringing a wise, insightful, compassionate and loving-kindness approach to yourself, your work, parenting and relationships.
​
Find out what you can do if stress and anxiety cause you suffering. Learn how to be helpful if you’re worried about a loved one who may be struggling with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
High quality, collaborative psychotherapy and transformational, research-based tools, such as EMDR, mindfulness, or ketamine-assisted therapy can empower you to be your best, most balanced self.
Background
& Experience
A highly skilled, caring professional for individual psychotherapy, couples counseling, short-term consultations
I am a licensed psychologist in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have a strong background in practical, evidence-based therapies, like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Exposure and response prevention (ERP). There is also great value in exploring how early patterns, coping mechanisms and beliefs can become outdated and block our natural ability to heal.
I enhance my professional expertise with my experience as a working mother, advocate for neurodiverse children, and marriage partner. My practice includes individual psychotherapy and couples counseling. I also provide single-appointment consultations, either for professionals for case consultation or for individuals with (non-psychotherapy) questions relevant to my areas of expertise.
