About me

As a licensed therapist in California with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and trauma recovery with compassionate, evidence-based approaches.

I have expertise in working with older adults, women's issues, and individuals experiencing significant life changes such as midlife transitions, chronic health challenges, and caregiver stress. My therapeutic approach is rooted in understanding attachment dynamics, communication patterns, and holistic emotional wellness by creating a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship.

My professional focus includes supporting clients through posttraumatic stress, mood disorders, family of origin challenges, and healing from difficult personal experiences. I create a supportive environment where individuals can explore their emotional landscape, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth.

With a commitment to empathetic, personalized care, I aim to walk alongside my clients as they discover their inner strengths and navigate life's most challenging moments.
