ABOUT ME

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, (LMFT) and hold a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Counseling Psychology from The Pacific Graduate School of Psychology / Palo Alto University. As a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, I have a specialized interest in the prevention and treatment of anxiety, chronic stress and complicated grief.

Another specialized interest of mine includes providing social and emotional support to children. This area of focus includes extensive experience helping children and young adults with special needs learn to navigate challenging thoughts and feelings.  My clinical experience includes parenting skills coaching and supportive therapy for caregivers. I have facilitated both social-emotional learning and grief support groups for children.

My previous clinical work includes two local San Francisco Bay Area non-profit mental health agencies: Community Health Awareness Council (CHAC) in Mountain View and Kara in Palo Alto
