Hello and welcome to my website.

I am an experienced therapist, with an office in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco.  I hope you will find these pages helpful in giving you a sense of the type of work I do and my approach. 

I am a psychotherapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than fifteen years of clinical experience.  I work with adults, adolescents, children and couples, both in short-term therapy and ongoing psychotherapy.  My approach is clear, collaborative and compassionate.  I start where you are, and together we determine how to proceed.  My office provides a comfortable and safe environment to discuss the most confidential of concerns.  For appointments call (415) 820-9609. 

My areas of expertise include:

-Alcohol and drug use/Addictions (Please see my Alcohol & Drug Use/Addictions page)

-Dissatisfaction in relationships (Please see my Couples Therapy page)

-Overwhelming change or loss

-Coping with medical illness, such as HIV/AIDS and cancer

-Parenting challenges

-Depression and anxiety

-Difficulties in school and work

I also work with people who seek out psychotherapy not because of a particular problem, but to better understand and accept themselves, to enhance their creativity, and to more fully realize their potential.  Psychotherapy can lead to profound changes -- in feeling more alive, more connected to yourself and others, and in developing an improved sense of choice in how you live your life.

I welcome your call to discuss setting up a consultation, or with any questions you may have.
