My Background
I am a clinical social worker, graduated from Columbia University School of Social Work, and licensed by the State of California (license number LCS19858). For more than fifteen years, I have worked with clients in a variety of settings, as a therapist, supervisor, consultant, teacher, and director of a psychotherapy training program.
I am very committed to continuing my education well beyond the requirements of licensure, to stay current with the clinical literature in order to deepen my connection to ways of working that are the most helpful. Toward this end, I teach in several psychotherapy training programs.
I provide consultation and supervision to other mental health professionals, as well as trainings to agencies in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have extensive experience working with clients from a variety of ethnic and racial backgrounds and clients of all sexual orientations, both individually and as couples.
With years of post-Masters training and supervision, I became a Board Certified Diplomate (BCD) in Clinical Social Work from the American Board of Examiners in Clinical Social Work. I am currently an advanced candidate at the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis, a course of study which involves many years of additional clinical supervision, coursework and a personal analysis.
