About My Clients

I support issues related to: anxiety, depressed mood, stress, peer and relationship issues, developing into adulthood, meaning and motivation, change and loss, stressful environments and complex trauma, specific trauma, anger, goal development, identity (gender, cultural, sexuality), building strengths and self-esteem.

My Background and Approach

I am a bi-racial San Francisco native, appreciative of the multicultural spirit of the city. I attended college in Los Angeles, graduate school in Portland, Oregon, and then I moved to New Zealand and worked as a therapist before returning to San Francisco. I provide services on the foundation that people deserve to feel a sense of control and confidence to find peace through adversity. I use an integrative approach, which means that I incorporate several different models of therapy based on the presenting problem and your individual needs. The therapies I draw primarily from include: Cognitive therapies, Narrative therapy, Psychodynamic, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Structural family therapy.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
