Welcome To My Homepage

I am a Clinical Psychologist in private practice, licensed by the California Board of Psychology (#PSY 7558), specializing in treatment of common psychological disorders, including depression, anxiety, life crises, transitions, adjustment and stress. I also treat more serious conditions such as BiPolar Disorder, Aspberger’s Syndrome and disorders of Personality, when outpatient treatment is feasable.

I work with all ages, including school-aged children. I also enjoy consultation and supervision.  I can provide psychological assessments and reports when that is requested by individuals, parents, or Family Court.

My approach to psychotherapy varies with the individual, but in general, I use a Cognitive Behavioral approach, tending towards insight-seeking. I assume that each person has their own inner wisdom about what they need and the course his or her life must take, but muddled thinking, past traumatic experiences, and fear often cloud that truth. As a Therapist, my role is to be a change facilitator; to compassionately guide and advise my patients toward clearly defined goals.
