Find a Therapist in Healdsburg, California.

It is rare in our high-pressure, everything-goes-too-fast world to have a refuge, a place to be and a person to be with where you are welcomed, affirmed and believed in. This is what I provide. You come here because something is not working, things have fallen apart or you just need some help figuring something out. You want to find your way and you haven't been able to do it on your own. I help people with a number of problems, like adjusting to difficult changes, struggling with important relationships, or understanding painful or disturbing emotions. Give me a call. Let's work on this together.

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.

Are you interested in getting relief and finding solutions? Would you like to feel good about your life and relationships? I use empirical research and science across multiple disciplines to show clients just like you how you can get real-world, tangible, time-tested, and long-lasting, results that lead to optimal mental and relational health. Mental and relational health is not just a reduction in symptoms and problems. Instead, they are increases in self-control and empowerment, as well as acceptance, freedom, kindness, compassion, safety, and understanding - for yourself and others.

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.

Therapy occurs within the context of a specialized therapeutic relationship (a unique type of helping relationship that is formed with your therapist to address problems). I focus on creating safety and trust through a nurturing, non-judgmental, and highly confidential environment while using a variety of approaches to help you make changes. I match the problem to the type of Therapy most helpful for that particular problem using methods ranging from Cognitive Behavioral to Psychodynamic or Depth Therapy. Using this approach, my clients have reported tremendous benefits. Some have made remarkable changes while grappling with very difficulty issues.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Let's think outside the box. I'm a supervising psychotherapist and project contractor with extensive experience. I've worked with government (CDC; INS; City of New York), NYC hospitals, nonprofits and the private sector. I've treated adults, adolescents & families in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I integrate state-of-the-art evidence based treatments with empowerment tools. When we're more empowered we become better able to attain wanted outcomes and self-discovery. My practice leans into person-centered "Client Driven Therapy." If your goal is to make a change or resolve a conflict, you can begin here. I work well with clients who seek new methods to support personal growth.

Psychotherapy is basically a working partnership between therapist and client. Time is spent remembering events in the past and trying to understand how they connect with what is going on in the present. The therapist listens, asks questions, often offers support and encouragement. I believe that the therapist's consciousness and own personal spiritual journey are important in this work and provide the atmosphere to support the client's journey. In this regard, I have come to feel that my work deepens with age & the wisdom age brings. Techniques I employ might include methods from many psychotherapeutic modalities. Techniques are determined by the situation & fit of the client.

I am a Counseling Psychologist, therapist who uses Psychotherapy as a healing process, directed in assisting persons who deal with difficulties of daily life functioning. The initial consultation can focus on identifying the immediate problem and a solution. The following sessions are directed to longer term goals and a resolution. The treatment model in your therapeutic process is best tailored to suit your personal, emotional needs.

I am known by my clients for offering direct and honest insight and feedback with love, warmth, and humor. I am not a sit-back-and-say-nothing therapist. I want to see you get the results you want, and I will absolutely help you do that in an active, loving, and direct way. I am an attachment-based therapist with a specialization in couples counseling and relationships.
