About us

My psychotherapy practice is a deeply fulfilling and dynamic space where I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples navigate the intricate landscape of their emotional and psychological well-being. With a strong foundation in evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, client-centered approach, I offer a wide range of services to address various mental health needs.

Individual Psychotherapy:

Individual psychotherapy serves as the cornerstone of my practice. I provide a safe and confidential environment for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, drawing from various modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and humanistic therapy. This allows me to tailor my interventions to each client's unique needs and challenges, fostering personal growth and resilience.

Couples Therapy and Relationship Counseling:

I specialize in helping couples navigate the complexities of their relationships. My couples therapy sessions focus on improving communication, enhancing intimacy, and resolving conflicts. I employ evidence-based techniques like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to create secure emotional bonds within relationships. My empathetic and non-judgmental approach creates a safe space for couples to address their issues and work toward healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Trauma Treatment and EMDR:

Trauma treatment is a significant component of my practice. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective therapy for processing and healing traumatic experiences. EMDR helps clients reprocess distressing memories and alleviate the emotional distress associated with trauma. My expertise in this modality allows me to support clients in their journey toward post-traumatic growth and recovery.

Overall, my practice acknowledges the unique challenges and complexities that individuals and couples face in today's rapidly evolving world. I incorporate contemporary perspectives on relationships, acknowledging the impact of technology, social media, and shifting cultural norms. My guidance empowers clients to navigate the intricacies of modern love while maintaining their authenticity and emotional well-being.

In addition to my clinical work, I also have the privilege of supervising psychotherapists who are new to the field. Guiding and mentoring emerging therapists is a deeply rewarding aspect of my practice. I take pride in helping them develop their clinical skills, refine their therapeutic approaches, and gain confidence in their work. It's a role that allows me to contribute to the growth and development of the next generation of mental health professionals.

Furthermore, I hold a significant position on the board of the Marin Chapter of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists. This involvement reflects my commitment to the broader mental health community and my dedication to promoting excellence in the field of marriage and family therapy. Serving on the board allows me to stay informed about the latest industry developments, advocate for the needs of clients and therapists alike, and contribute to the continued growth and professionalism of our local therapeutic community.

These roles, as a supervisor and board member, are an integral part of my practice, reinforcing my passion for the field of psychotherapy and my commitment to supporting the well-being of individuals, couples, and families within my community. In my psychotherapy practice, clients can expect a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental atmosphere where their voices are heard and their concerns validated. I believe in the inherent strength and resilience of every individual and couple I work with, and I am dedicated to helping them harness their potential for growth and healing.

In summary, my psychotherapy practice is a place of healing, growth, and transformation. Through individual psychotherapy, couples therapy, trauma treatment, and a modern approach to love and relationships, I provide a holistic and client-centered experience that empowers my clients to lead healthier, happier lives. My commitment to staying informed, mentoring new therapists, and actively participating in the broader professional community ensures that my practice remains a valuable resource for those seeking support and guidance in their mental health journey.
