If you are seeking growth of any kind whether it be insight or healing then I'd like to offer you my hand. I offer you acceptance and safety. The truth is life is just plain hard in big and small ways. It's true for all of us. A therapeutic alliance can be the first step toward change. This alliance is simply a second pair of eyes, on the lookout for your growth and healing. When disappointments, fears, and pain finally become too much. We become ready to seek change. For 15 years I have worked with children, adults, couples and families. I have considered it an honor to be on the journey with those I've seen. My specialty is the supportive relationship. I would like to build a healthy therapeutic alliance in which you can find happiness, seek joy and have peace. Harvel Hendrix said, we are born into relationships, we are wounded in relationships and we can be healed in relationships. The relationship between a person and their therapist is a great place tp start. I hope to see you there!

I am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice, in California. My approach to therapy is commonsense, based in Dialog, reflective listening, mindfulness based cognitive therapy in conjunction with breath work, journaling and dream journaling and practicing being present. I take my clients seriously, I take our work together seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously: my primary purpose is to be of service, to be useful to my clients. Our experiences are a map of where we have been, and what it was like. Our ‘stories’ are a mixture of moments we are proud of, grateful for and moments which we would rather not repeat. Through the therapeutic dialog we can come to understand why we make the choices we make and have an opportunity to discover new choices and decide how our story unfolds from the present moment into the future; with courage and kindness toward ourselves we can reach for the life we want to live and be the person we want to be. By the time my clients ‘graduate’ from therapy they will have developed tools which will continue being useful long after our work together has concluded. Personal responsibility and accountability are cornerstones of freedom.
