My goal as a therapist is to assist people on their personal journey towards peace, freedom and beginning anew. I’m devoted to supporting the courage and growth that can result from collaborative therapy. I offer a safe space and unconditional acceptance on this journey to change. In addition to being a psychotherapist, I’m a published researcher and best-selling author. Since 1991, I’ve authored pioneering books and studies about communication in relationships and alternative therapies for mental health. My work has been noted in publications all over the world. My approach to therapy was developed through my extensive education and experience, including a Bachelors in Communication, a Masters and a Ph.D. in Psychology, and a Doctorate in Naturopathy. This multi-disciplinary approach enables me to approach issues from a truly holistic perspective, helping the people I care for to feel better faster and appreciate lasting results. Many people see results in as quickly as the first session. I do everything I can to make my clients feel comfortable and welcome. My counseling style is distinguished by intuition, compassion and optimism. I provide my patients with the highest quality of confidential treatment in a serene retreat like atmosphere. Please contact me to learn more about the services I offer. I look forward to talking with you and helping in any way I can. California MFC47803, Arizona LMFT-15655, Florida MT4366

Life is complex at all ages, yet knowing this does not necessarily help or give us direction. In my work, I try to help guide people through the complexities and nuances of life, examine choices and explore options, personal history, and experience. I have a deep respect for my clients, for their wisdom and their struggles. I provide an encouraging and non-judgmental space to look at each unique concern and situation. I often explore the role of meaning and choice in our lives, and how both powerfully (but often invisibly) affect how we live our days. While I work with many issues, I have specialties in sex therapy and bipolar disorder.

As an experienced marriage and family therapist in California I am dedicated to helping you develop the personal and relational skills and strategies required to create and maintain a positive, meaningful life and healthy relationships. I provide therapy for couples, adults, teens and families in the Silicon Valley. Through my education, training, and experience, I have turned my commitment to helping others into a rewarding career in helping people like you improve how they feel. As part of my clinical practice, I provide a culturally responsive trauma informed approach so that you feel safe and accepted.

Adults Abused as Children Chronic, Severe and Terminal Illness Trauma, Loss and Grief Research indicates a powerful relationship between our emotional experiences as children and our physical and mental health as adults, as well as the major causes of adult mortality. It documents the conversion of traumatic emotional experiences into organic disease later in life. Adult survivors of childhood maltreatment who appear to be healthy are twice as likely to show clinically relevant levels of inflammation known to predict the development of conditions such as heart disease and diabetes.[King’s College Study led by Dr. Andrea Danese in London.]

Since I enjoy working with many different ages, I provide psychotherapy and counseling to a wide range of clients; from preschoolers to retirees. What we have long suspected, and what science is now confirming, is that the relationship that develops in the therapy room is the most significant factor in the success of therapy. I understand how difficult starting the therapy process can be and do my best to make my clients feel comfortable and safe from the very beginning. I view the first few sessions as an assessment period for both of us since it is important that we both feel it is a good fit. I generally see my clients for 50 minute sessions, once a week. Occasionally, when it feels appropriate we'll meet a couple times in the week. The children's sessions are for 45 minutes. Please see my article on Children and Therapy for a more comprehensive description of my work with children.

OFFERING VIDEO/TELETHERAPY SESSIONS. When you begin each day feeling lost, uncertain, and worried it can be overwhelming. If these feelings persist, you may notice anxious, nervous, or depressive behaviors and things just don't feel right. Perhaps you've observed communication problems, unhealthy relationships, or excessive work are becoming more frequent and you're not sure how you got to this place. Talking with a trusted therapist can help you acknowledge and reflect on what's happening, and discover ways to change yourself. I can help you develop tools that will lead you to a more intentional, fulfilling life. Our sessions will bring a sense of relief as I listen without judgment. Together, in a safe, comfortable space, we'll examine your unconscious motivations as we explore mindful strategies that create space between your beliefs, actions, and responses. This will allow you to take charge and make a change. Let's use an integrative therapeutic approach to achieve your goals. Let's move beyond uncertainty and into a place where you can create the life you want for yourself. Our therapeutic relationship can be the catalyst for profound and lasting transformation. Give me a call - let's start today.

Would you like to live a more fulfilled life with meaningful relationships? You have taken the first step! Finding the right therapist can be scary and confusing. I believe that a personal connection is the corner stone to a successful therapeutic experience. Sometimes traumatic events can bring us to lose our sense of well-being and our center and we need help regaining them. I see my role as guide and support in your path of uncovering your full potential. I work with adults, adolescents, children, couples and families. Please call me to see if we are a good fit. As a holistic therapist I belief that our mind, body and emotions are connected, and to heal we need to reconnect with our deeper knowing and find ways to re-trust our Selves. I use mindfulness based and somatic approaches to reconnect with our deeper truth and to regain well-being. As an adoptive and step mother I bring first hand experience and specialized training to the issue of adoption, especially international adoption, and step parenting. As a early childhood educator, I have had many years of working with children and their parents. I also bring extensive training and experience in working with adolescents and young adults. I love working with families, couples and individuals to help support you in your journey to greater peace of mind and love for life. Please contact me for a free phone consultation, and I will be happy to meet with you to see if we are a good fit. I believe that a good connection is the first step to a successful therapeutic relationship.

The mission of Therapy2Thrive™ is to provide clients with a therapeutic relationship that provides thoughtful, caring foundation that builds trust and safety for our clients. Therapy2Thrive™ works with our clients with practical research based counseling skills and interventions to assist people in making choices to lead to more joy and less distress in their lives. We offer: 1) Research and evidence based theory and interventions. 2) Practical solutions that support positive change. 3) Guidance that supports helping people to help themselves. 4) Relatable therapists who provide services of quality, value and worth. Life brings challenges and how we care for ourselves is important. Our goal and Therapy2Thrive™ is to move you toward self value and self care. Imagine yourself standing on a beach, as the waves crash upon you. Each wave nearly knocks you over. You feel breathless as the waves continue to roll in. You tire, you feel worn, your zest for each day dampens and what once was a joyful view of the sea has now turned into a stressful experience. Holding yourself, day by day in order to make it through the daily grind your passion diminishes and you feel worn. At Therapy2Thrive™ we work with you to implement the tools and strategies that allow you to stabilize your feet in the sandy beach. We work with you to strengthen you stance and the muscles inside of yourself to sustain the waves that crash upon us as the tides of life pass in and out. We work with out clients to feel re-refreshed, so they can feel breeze and not be blown over by the wind that comes off the waters of life. We work with you to not just sustain but to thrive again to find the joy of playing on the beach in your life. Embrace the fun and laughter again and let go of the burnout and apathy of stress and despair. We work with your courage of all you have survived and move you with hope to thrive again. We offer services that include individual counseling, couples counseling, family counseling and group counseling. We provide services for adults, youth and seniors. Individual counseling is one of the most common ways people participate in the counseling process at Therapy2Thrive™ Pleasanton. The individual counseling relationship between client and therapist becomes a vehicle for positive change as you gain awareness regarding the issues that are brought into therapy. Couples counseling is different from Individual Counseling because the focus of the counseling relationship is the relationship between the two partners rather than the therapist with each individual. We work with evidenced based therapies for couples counseling. Child play therapy is an important area of treatment at Therapy2Thrive. Developmentally, children often communicate their fears and worries in largely a non-verbal way. Your Therapy2Thrive™ therapist interacts with your child’s inner world through the strategic use of imaginary play, art, games and, other symbolic activities. This process of “Play Therapy” helps children cope with difficult emotions, create solutions to their problems, and develop healthy self-esteem. Therapy2Thrive™ child counselor understands the important role parents have in their child’s life. Therapy2Thrive™ works with teens to support their development of themselves while still maintaining their relationship to their families. The Therapy2Thrive™ family therapist supports the family’s overall health and well-being through skill development and shared growth. Group counseling provides a setting where a group of people come together, usually on a weekly basis, to explore, learn and grow through the collaborative sharing of the group’s members. Come join us at Therapy2Thrive™ to Thrive Again!

There are many reasons why you might be considering a Los Angeles psychologist at this time: a long-standing problem, the impact of a current life situation, and/or wanting support for your personal growth. Whatever your reasons, I know that it's important for you to find a therapist with whom you feel you can develop a good working relationship - someone whom you feel you can trust, who can understand your situation, someone with solid training and experience. In our work together we will come to understand more about the sense you may have that your life is not your own - feeling stuck, feeling driven by old habits, feeling depressed, feeling consumed and forestalled by rage, feeling that change is needed in your relationship or in your career. You and I will work together to build a trusting and non-judgmental relationship where you can feel safe to talk about yourself openly.

“I'm the product of 20 years of therapeutic practice and have attended to over 1,800 clients. I'm eclectic - I work in many modes -cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, existential. Each client is assessed at the beginning, middle and end of therapy. I customize my approach to my clients' symptoms, their character & their talents. I have no ideal client but I press hard to go beyond clichés and stereotypes. I look for a "healing fiction" that is practical & useful. My specialty - way beyond techniques of behavioral, cognitive and inter active and psychodynamic modes - I believe is that I am quick to cut to the chase with fresh insights. I believe I listen well and am direct. I work cross culturally; across gender and race. I'm a patient advocate. I team up with ancillary helpers to move clients through their issues. I have won awards for my work with Multiple Sclerosis and with older adults. I am a published writer and I nurture my clients' creativity.”

I am an independent practitioner in Alameda, CA. My specialties are marriage counseling, individual counseling, and facilitating "Dream Appreciation Groups". In individual and marriage counseling, we address the stumbling blocks affecting your current life circumstances. Our sessions are client-centered, lively conversations. During the first and second sessions, we usually talk about what you'd like to accomplish in your therapy, as well as historical information that will help paint a full picture of your life journey to the present time. Of course if you are in crisis, we will concentrate on this situation first, and then we will tackle the less critical, but just as important, reasons for your decision to enter therapy. My approach is humanistic in that your sessions are individually tailored to You, the only person(s) like you on earth. I've found that EMDR, a therapeutic approach, has been extremely effective for alleviating painful struggles (including for trauma, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse) more quickly than traditional or psychodynamic methods—but, once again, you will be able to decide how you want your sessions to move forward. I also do non-psychotherapy dream groups for people who would like to explore their dreams in a confidential and safe social environment. Although the groups are not psychotherapy, they are usually very therapeutic—people participating in these groups have experienced growth on many levels, that is, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. If you believe that you would feel comfortable in any of these settings (individual, marital, or group), I would be glad to meet with you so that we can see whether we're a good fit together. I hope to hear from you soon!

I work with individuals, couples and work groups in a dynamic, engaged style with the aim of facilitating compassionate awareness and comittment to behavioral adjustment. I am comfortable with challenging emotions and complex relationships that have the potential of real breakthrough with the clarity and support that I can provide.

I use a multidisciplinary approach which includes Somatic therapies, Transpersonal and Mindfulness-based therapies, Cognitive-Behavioral, EMDR, Internal Family Systems therapy, parenting skills, relationship counseling, hypnotherapy, meditation, music and sound therapy. I see individual, couples and families. My work focuses on releasing those patterns that create suffering, stress, or loss of joy. Within us all is the capacity to move in life from a center of wholeness, creativity and Love. Learning to access this Center or Essential Self is the way to release pain, and thus awakening freedom and fulfillment. Transformation can be experienced in may aspects of our life: physically, mentally, relationally, emotionally, vocationally and spiritually. Though difficulties in life may be the initial reason to seek therapy, the result can bring balance, harmony, and new resources. The ultimate goal is to access your own inner strength, wisdom and capacity to heal and express your Authentic Essential Self.

I receive great satisfaction from helping individuals and couples resolve issues that are causing distress. In a safe space while learning practical tools, our work together creates healing and resolution. I use EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing) to resolve traumatic events as well as negative thoughts which keep you from reaching your full potential. The Enneagram of personality types helps create a deeper self understanding and compassion for others in your life. Mindfullness is another important aspect of how I work; learning relaxation and stress reduction techniques are beneficial to leading a healthy life.

Making the decision to begin therapy can be a difficult one. Whether it is to enter into therapy for the first time or to resume the process after a hiatus, I commend you for seeking assistance, counsel, and a compassionate ear. Most of us are in need of additional tools at some point in this wonderful yet often baffling course through life. Congratulations for giving yourself permission for seeking assistance to facilitate your personal journey. Finding your therapist can be a frustrating process. Psychological studies show that the best outcomes for therapy are when the client likes their therapist and when the therapist likes the client. Therapy is a relationship and can be an extremely important relationship for you. I deeply respect the process of finding your right therapist, which is why I offer a free initial consultation.
