About Me

I'm a clinical psychologist licensed in California, and I've enjoyed working with adults in various settings, including private practice, community centers, and hospitals. I believe that no single method of therapy can meet everyone’s needs. Therefore, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, and Mindfulness-based orientations depending on your individual needs and goals. I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an effective treatment for emotional distress resulting from trauma and other disturbing life experiences. Mindfulness-based and cognitive behavioral approaches, which are particularly helpful for treating anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, are also part of my practice. For patients who have difficulty regulating emotions, I utilize techniques from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Additionally, I use Emotionally Focused, and Internal Family System approaches to explore and transform underlying patterns that prevent people from living satisfying lives.
