I see clients in person in Oakland in the upper Grand Lake area

I work with you to learn skills to impact the environment and the self for a more regulated, intentional and authentic life. My approach to therapy is based on empathy, humor, and finding a balance between acceptance and change.

What I Provide

My therapy services can help you, whether you're working through a difficult time or feel like you've been stuck in a rut. I use three main paths toward increased family harmony, namely:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills Courses
  • DBT for families
  • DBT for children (with families involvment) or individual therapy for older adolescents

Sessions are provided in person in a non-ADA-compliant building with street parking. Any family or individual virtual sessions are on a case by case basis, with clients located anywhere in California.
