About

 

I’m a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (lic #34930), and I offer individual or couples therapy to adults in Berkeley, California, either in-person or via telehealth video sessions.​

​

The work that I do is focused on discovering and understanding the underlying causes of your problems. My focus is on long-term  healing. This work is very rewarding and can improve your life in significant, palpable ways.

 

I’m trained in psychodynamic therapy, where one seeks the causes and origins of suffering and works through them, healing and letting them go. In session, I use empathy and gentle, kind curiosity to discover and understand the origins of maladaptive behaviors and suffering to create new, adaptive, and rewarding ways of living. This approach results in clients feeling more relaxed and present, and increases their ability to make decisions that are aligned with their values. My style is warm, active, and goal-oriented.

​

When clients first start therapy, I establish a strong relationship and comfortable environment where they feel safe and understood. Many of my clients come in to address life struggles, transitions, relationships, trauma histories, anxiety, and/or depression. I have advanced training and experience in treating trauma, and can help with a variety of issues.

​

I’ve worked with patients struggling with day to day life and/or career issues, healing from childhood physical, sexual and/or emotional abuse, and/or neglect, battling intergenerational trauma, parenting without a parent(s), and/or healing from other trauma. I charge $230 per session, and I don't take insurance, though I do provide superbills, and can offer a sliding scale.
