Find a Therapist in Coto de Caza, California.

Clients who seek therapy with me benefit from a practical, down-to-earth approach that is both caring and engaging. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where growth feels achievable and even enjoyable at times. I employ evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR trauma therapy to help you gain clarity, reduce anxiety, heal from past experiences, and build confidence as you move forward with greater peace and purpose.

Thinking outside the box: New insights and self-empowerment for lasting change. With extensive experience as a supervising psychotherapist and project contractor, I have worked with government agencies (CDC, INS, City of New York), NYC hospitals, nonprofits, and the private sector. As a cited resource in books and articles, I have presented numerous times on psychodynamic therapy and treated adolescents and families in both inpatient and outpatient settings. By integrating self-empowerment tools with state-of-the-art, evidence-based treatment, I help individuals open new pathways to break habits, solve problems, or resolve conflicts, fostering lasting personal growth and wellness.

My clients often find me easy to talk to and say they feel comfortable with me, trusting quickly. This can make the psychotherapeutic process easier and more effective for my clients, especially if they are nervous or don’t know what to expect. Therapy with me can range from just talking casually with each other, leading to insights, increased self awareness, and processing through emotional issues, or it could be more intensive deeper therapy like EMDR.

Psychotherapy is not anything to be scared of, or intimidated about. Seeking out a therapist or being in therapy isn't an admission of weakness or some kind of character flaw. Therapy is a collaborative process and a partnership with someone who is trained in and experienced with facilitating personal growth. And in this process, you are in the driver's seat. Our minds and emotions and relationships involve complicated machinery just like our bodies do and in the same way a medical doctor helps you stay physically healthy, Psychotherapy is designed to help you be and stay mentally and socially strong, and continually in a position to take on life's many challenges as your best self.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
