About Me
As a licensed Clinical Psychologist in California, my intention is to provide warm, attentive, empathetic, and results-oriented care to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Collaborative problem-solving is emphasized in an effort to ensure that each person in the family system feels heard and understood. Through a compassionate approach and a space in which vulnerability, mental health, healthy boundaries, and self-compassion are normalized, we can cultivate the kind of therapeutic relationship that leads to relief, true transformation and lasting change. The therapeutic process involves commitment, courage, and teamwork; as a result, I have deep respect for those who are willing to seek help during difficult times in their lives. By identifying and disrupting distorted response patterns, it is my hope to help find healing and forgiveness around past hurts and restore appropriate self-worth, realistic optimism, relational health and the courage to act from love.
