Great to meet you!

I was always drawn to people who went unseen or unheard. Others told me I had a calm voice and that they could tell me anything. That led to a lifelong study of how people free themselves from their own patterns, later deepened by psychoanalysis and professional work in eating disorders, addiction treatment, and managed care settings like Kaiser.

My approach to therapy

My approach combines deep listening with practical tools. I pay really close attention to what’s said and unsaid, helping you understand patterns that keep you stuck, leading to genuine change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance for you to truly talk freely. I’ll ask about what’s been happening, what you hope for, and what’s been difficult. By the end, you’ll have a sense of how I work and whether it feels like the right fit.
