I provide therapy primarily to individuals; however, I also work with families and couples. My approach holds the belief that you, the client, are the expert in your life and that my role is to provide guidance and support on your journey. While the type of therapy I conduct is integrative, I often use cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques in my work, depending on the needs of the client. In addition to therapy, I have experience providing assessment services to children and adults, for ADHD and learning disabilities.
Here are some of my areas of therapy specialization:
*Addiction & Recovery
*Bipolar Disorders
*Eating Disorders
*Depression
*Gender Identity Development
*Grief Counseling
*Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders
*Relationship Development
*Sexual Identity Development
*Social Anxiety
*Trauma and PTSD
Supervised by Shawn Giammattei, PhD, licensed clinical psychologist (PSY22570).
Bio
Welcome! Choosing the right therapist is hard and it is important to choose someone you feel comfortable working with. Therapy can be an exciting and potentially life changing experience. However, it often involves a challenging journey, one that requires a strong therapeutic bond with a therapist that is a good fit for you. I invite you to explore my page and contact me about my services to see if you feel we are a good match. I am a San Francisco therapist and psych assistant (PSB36163) with a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology, and nearing completion of a doctorate. I have been practicing therapy for over 5 years and believe strongly in being client centered and adapting therapy to help you achieve success in the things you want to change. We all have the power to produce change, however, sometimes in life we need the help of someone trusted and close to us to help us down difficult paths.
I provide services in English or German.
