Couples: I am TAKING Couples again. However only on Cash Pay basis. This is how it will work: You can schedule with me an hour consultation, you don't both have to be present, for this Consultation. From there we will meet 5 to 6 times for 1.5 hour sessions. It is very difficult to have Couples sessions within 60 min. The Cash pay is $250.00 for the 1.5 hour sessions. I understand the cost can be a deterrent in seeking help, however if you are both committed to doing the work 5 to 6 sessions should be productive and enough to see changes. Individuals: Of course I am still taking individuals that are or are not in a relationship and need help. We were never taught how to be in a relationship of any kind. Yes there are tons of books of how to, however to put them to practical use can be very difficult. This can also relate to a relationship with a family member, friends or co-workers.
I am not the type of therapist that will just sit back and say "how does that make. you feel" but I will ask for your goals and help you reach them.
I am here to help with coping strategies for anxiety and depression symptoms or learning how to communicate more effectively with others. For Clients that are insured by Kaiser: I will be confirming your appointment 48 hours before the appointment by email, please email me back with a confirmation. If you do not respond to my email I will cancel the appointment. Also, if you cancel a set appt less than 24 hours I will need to refer you to another therapist. I am sorry to have to do this, however I have had an excessive amount of no shows. Thank you for understanding.
First session
Your first session I will ask what is your goal to achieve in Therapy, but also obtain a background from you of how you grew up, and what is important to you.
Strengths
My specialties are Individual Therapy and Couples Therapy, working with you to meet your goal. I am very Solution Focused and will use this along with Mindfulness.
Ideal clients
In this section it is asking me to write "who is my ideal Client" well that is difficult to say. Every Client deserves to correct toxic behavior, to reach their goal, to have skills to manage their stress...
Treatment methods
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
I help clients move beyond symptom management by focusing on actionable solutions. In our sessions, we will identify the specific barriers preventing your progress and build a tailored toolkit of coping skills to overcome them. My approach is collaborative and goal-oriented: we will start by defining what you want to achieve, and as your needs evolve, we will adapt our focus to ensure you feel fully supported on your journey toward meaningful change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
This is the first line of defense that I use in my practice to assist Clients to gain awareness of their symptoms or negative behaviors.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT allows you to be in control. In control of reducing your symptoms, negative thinking and negative behaviors.
