I will help you to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship within which you will be able to explore yourself and sort out the steps you'll need to take. It can be difficult to reach out for support for personal matters, but when you do, you will be taking the first step to healing. My work is always within a multicultural, psychodynamic and relational context.
Everyone at some point in their lives will face hurdles or struggles that they will need to explore, understand and overcome. It takes courage to decide to explore what is causing the suffering, and risk trusting someone else to help. Friends and family members are key support systems, but I would offer non judgmental feedback, and am 30 years professionally trained to make connections, offer insight and help you to move forward.

Services
As a licensed MFT psychotherapist, with 27 years of experience in treatment and supervision, I have worked with 100's of individual adults and couples over this time. I am highly relational, and you will feel me engaged and present in the room with you. I believe the true art of psychotherapy lies in the integration of academic knowledge, tools, and a compassionate and non judgmental personality.
I work with adults and couples, and tailor my therapy services to meet the specific needs of my clients. My practice specializes in providing therapy for adult individuals, and couples (or other relational configurations). Sessions usually last 50 minutes, and generally occur weekly. Initially, I help clients identify goals for therapy, and how we are going to work to meet those goals.
When you make the decision to try counseling/psychotherapy, and reach out to me (and possibly a few other clinicians, because I wholeheartedly believe in testing the waters with more than just me) here's what you can expect: we will set up a session for you to see whether we might be a good therapeutic fit.
I commit some clinical hours to clients making use of their insurance. I am a preferred provider for Magellan, Optum, Managed Health Network (MHN), and Blue Shield of California. My current rate is $200 for a 50 minute hour. I can reduce my fee for therapies in which we meet multiple times weekly, or for individuals who cannot afford my full rate.
