I help survivors of both complex and single-incident trauma. Depending on our interpretation of experienced traumatic events, we are likely to feel ashamed, powerless, misunderstood, broken, and isolated. We try to numb our pain with substances, eating disorders, self-harm, or super-achieving. I rely on my strong background in mindfulness meditatio
Many women (especially in the fast-paced, competitive environment of the Bay Area) struggle to balance the multiple roles we have acquired.

The therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of psychotherapy. For treatment to be successful, you need a space where you can feel comfortable sharing more of what's happening on th
Our past relationships can leave us wounded. The story that we tell ourselves may be riddled with negative thoughts, shame, and low self-worth. As these feelings manifest, we become anxious and depressed. Therapy can help us discover new perspectives that shape a new narrative, one where we have different ways to manage our emotions and lead a m
