Do you feel like you "should" be doing things better?Do you feel guilty when you take time just for yourself?Do you often feel anxious or unhappy? Learning to treat ourselves with compassion, and balance caretaking for others with self-care is something many of us have to learn - and depression, anxiety and chronic symptoms can be a clue that it is time to get help doing just that.  
 
My path to becoming a psychotherapist was much the same as many of my clients find their path in life -- through making mistakes, feeling uncomfortable, and learning how to get in touch with my authentic self and what I needed to thrive. My early career was spent in energy policy, where I fought for consumers. I loved doing good in the world, but I didn't enjoy battling for a living. Getting to know myself led me to finding joy in helping others do the same.   I specialize in working with adults who are hard on themselves. A supportive, authentic therapist can help you begin to appreciate the person you truly are, and to enjoy your life more fully than ever before. I help my clients manage anxiety, break through depression, improve their relationships and self-esteem, overcome chronic pain and stress illness, and have greater compassion for themselves and others. My style is warm and nonjudgmental. Improving self-care and becoming more authentically yourself can transform life stresses into opportunities for growth and increased happiness.  I earned my B.A. from Tufts University, a Masters in Economics from New Mexico State University, and a Masters in Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University. I am a member of:
  • The California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists, East Bay Chapter
  • Postpartum Support International, 
  • The Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms, and 
  • Mt. Diablo Perinatal Psychotherapy Associates
I am certified in perinatal mental health (PMH-C) and in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT). I am also trained in EMDR, Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), Brainspotting, and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
