Licensed Individual & Couples Psychotherapist
California Marriage & Family Therapist #37850
My work with clients is an interplay between art and science. In a direct and collaborative way, I blend current research and evidence based practices with compassion and creativity. I draw on several theoretical orientations and on twenty-five years of clinical experience working in SF with individuals and couples, and training other psychotherapists.
​
I love the work that I do and find meaning and vitality working the space between tradition and innovation to bring about positive change and growth
​
MY APPROACH
I believe that our histories profoundly influence how we experience ourselves, how we manage our feelings, and the overall quality of our relationships. While this belief fundamentally guides my thinking and informs my approach, I am versed in a variety of techniques, rooted in other traditions, and am comfortable working with a wide range of issues. I use tools from psychodynamic therapies, solution focused and cognitive based therapies, mindfulness based practices and the field of Coaching.
My training is extensive and has been gained working with a diverse clientele in several clinical settings. I have a graduate degree in Clinical Psychology and extensive post graduate clinical training. I am licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in California and provide training and supervision to other psychotherapists. I am also an Executive Coach and have many years of experience working with founders, CEOs, and executives in the entrepreneurial world.
Over the course of my career I have found that my work is especially effective in helping people who are functioning at a high level already, but who continue to struggle with self-doubt, have trouble with intimacy in relationship, or find themselves unable to fully manifest what they really want in life.
