Outdoor Therapy (available for Marin County residents)
Immerse yourself in the healing power of nature. Outdoor therapy allows for the integration of psychotherapy and the natural environment, whether it's walking, hiking, or finding a serene spot to sit and reflect.
Outdoor therapy sessions can take place in various locations, including stroller- and walker-friendly sidewalks, multi-use trails, Marin County Regional Parks, wetlands, redwood groves, and creeks.

Individual Therapy
I specialize in individual therapy, focusing on the treatment of PTSD, trauma-related problems, anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, relationship issues, and life-adjustment issues. I utilize evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Prolonged Exposure therapy for PTSD, Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, Relapse Prevention, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I also incorporate acceptance-based interventions and skills such as mindfulness, validation, and radical acceptance as needed.
Couples Therapy
Drawing from various evidence-based approaches, I offer couples therapy that combines elements of Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy (IBCT), Emotion-Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These approaches aim to enhance emotional connection, foster secure attachment, and explore the dynamics of individual subpersonalities within the relationship.
