I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with over 20 years of experience. My clinical expertise include working with individuals, families and teens. I also have many years of supervisory and leadership skills, working in executive management to develop an organizational environment.

People pursue therapy for a variety of reasons. Some may enter therapy to address major life changes, such academic/career difficulties, marriage/divorce, loneliness, and others may seek help in managing mental health conditions, like depression and anxiety. Many clients are ordinary people struggling with common, everyday issues.

My therapeutic style is interactive and supportive. I strongly believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion. I am highly committed and trained, providing a combination of different treatment modalities depending on your individualized and unique needs. In my work, I practice the leading psychological modalities, such as, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing approaches.

It takes courage to attend therapy and it takes dedication to see it through. There are solutions to your situation. Through engagement, insight and reorientation, we can determine the goals of therapy, and if the therapy should be short or long-term. In many cases we will explore much more than just the presenting problem. I look forward to working with you and helping you to recognize the steps you need to take to reach your ultimate goal, improve relationships, and empower long lasting self-growth.
