A long relationship doesn’t have to mean losing yourself or that emotional distance becomes the norm. Imagine turning down the white noise of life and tuning into what you and your partner need as individuals and as an entity. With my support it’s possible to discuss even the most challenging topics.
I can help you build a thriving partnership.
In therapy I create a safe space, where sharing vulnerable emotions without fear of judgment, transforms conflicts and uncomfortable topics into opportunities for growth. As you start sharing the unspoken, emotional intimacy deepens, establishing a solid foundation of shared trust.
Connection and intimacy is possible even in the midst of a busy life. Domesticity can kill passion ~ this doesn’t have to be the case for you. With the right tools you can remain partners in life and keep that spark alive. I’ll guide you through these conversations and help you define what a fulfilling relationship means to you.
The spark may fade over time but with my support, it can be reignited
You weren’t raised talking openly about sex, most weren’t, but you know that it’s an essential part of life that deserves attention. You’re ready for a more fulfilling sex life that reflects your desires and that can heal wounds of disconnection or rejection. I’m here to support you to explore this sensitive topic with compassion and without judgment. Reach out to learn more.
Therapy with me is a transformative journey, healing parts of yourself that may have been ignored or misunderstood. While everyone has an inner critic, with compassion it no longer has to dominate your thoughts. My approach is collaborative and personalized, incorporating evidence-based practices in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.
Consider me to be a trusted companion with years of experience here to assist you in your healing journey.
I am dedicated to helping you cultivate self-compassion and experience support within your relationships. My style blends various modalities that are effective and create lasting change.
I utilize art therapy and somatic therapy techniques that go beyond logic to support healing. Most issues people seek support for need more creativity and less logic. Stepping out of problem-solving mode is key to gaining genuine insight, facilitating change, and fostering growth.
My compassionate style and unique interventions can help you become the best version of yourself. My approach assists partners in navigating communication challenges, differences in desire and in healing attachment wounds.
My style is unique. I synthesize a variety of highly effective therapy modalities such as neuroscience, somatic, art and sex therapy.
My approach weaves together effective therapeutic interventions from many brilliant voices in the field. These interventions actually work to help you heal that harsh inner critic, strengthen your relationship and to define your authentic needs. Somatic, mindfulness and art therapy interventions can cast a different light on problems that may feel repetitive and ingrained.
For the past 3 years I have been working toward becoming a certified sex therapist to provide support for clients dealing with various sexual challenges within and outside of partnerships I regularly immerse myself in the latest research, participating in advanced courses, and attending highly specialized trainings such as:

If you need a lower fee, I have two options:
I do not accept insurance directly and am considered an out-of-network provider for insurance companies. Some insurance companies will provide coverage for out-of-network providers, usually at a 40-80% rate.
I can provide you with a superbill to be reimbursed by your insurance.

Yes.
I offer in person sessions at my office in Berkeley and online therapy via HIPPA compliant Zoom platform.
Sessions are held weekly or every other week and are 50 minutes in length. I meet weekly with new clients. Some clients reach a point where they see improvement and would like to meet every other week so I am open to discussing this and come up with a mutual decision about when this might be helpful.
I don’t meet with new clients every other week because it’s essential to build a relationship for me to offer the most effective support.

I specialize in working with female-identified individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Through somatic therapy and parts work, I provide a safe and compassionate space for you to reconnect with your body and explore the different parts of yourself.
Trauma is stored in the body, and somatic therapy helps release these stored experiences, restoring sensation and full feeling to areas that may have been numb or shut down for years.
Parts work enables us to reconnect with parts of ourselves we may have run from or buried in order to survive. Together, we will deepen your understanding of yourself and get to the root of what’s keeping you stuck, enabling you to feel more fully alive and embody your most authentic self.
