I want you to know your worth and how valuable you are.

I suffered with self-doubt, anxiety and insecurity as a teen and young adult. As a parent I felt constant feelings of guilt- feeling that I was not enough. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice because the methods have worked for me. I was able to shift my perspective from being stuck in negative self-critical thoughts to being more accepting and kind with myself.

Therapy doesn’t have to be forever.

I’m invested in your improvement. Part of what I do is ask for feedback to make sure that treatment is focused on what it is you want to talk about and accomplish. I use 50 different tools and strategies to help you untwist your thinking and I do require homework. 

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.  After finishing graduate school at Cal State East Bay, I worked in agencies throughout the Bay Area, and pursued specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with the Feeling Good Institute. I have also been trained in treating OCD with Exposure Response Prevention, and I am able to treat OCD in children and adults. I have training in Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE). I have extensive training in parent education. I use my education and training from Hand in Hand Parenting and Positive Discipline methods to help parents gain confidence in their parenting abilities. I am dedicated in continuing my education to best serve clients, as well as using evidence based practices.

I am currently offering telehealth and telephone sessions to folks in California.

My fee is $200 per 50 minute session.

I do not accept insurance directly, but can easily provide you with a monthly super bill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement, if you have Out of Network coverage.
