I practice psychotherapy with adults by using a caring approach that involves empirically validated theories. My therapeutic approach consists of helping clients safely explore ideas and life choices that facilitate personal growth and interpersonal success.

As a psychotherapist (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist), my areas of experience and training include, but are not limited to, somatic psychotherapy, interpersonal neurobiology, insecure attachment, mindfulness, dream analysis, addictions, substance abuse, managing emotions, pain management, sexual compulsion, coming out, internalized homophobia, loneliness, self-esteem, midlife crisis, shame, depression, anxiety, HIV/AIDS, dual diagnosis, grief/loss, embracing creativity, work concerns, personal growth, and codependency.

I have training in contemporary psychoanalysis, Jungian psychology, sandplay therapy, Trauma Resiliency Model, cognitive therapy, mindfulness, 12-step modality, Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Eastern psychology. I am skilled at goal-oriented, problem focused, and time-efficient therapy.  

In addition to my counseling services, I provide case consultation for other licensed psychotherapists who need guidance to give the best possible care to their patients. I have a supportive approach and a strong clinical knowledge.
