Introduction

I love helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen their relationships. I am a certified Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) therapist through ICCEFT, which offers an effective approach for clients across all relationship types. My practice is also informed by the Gottman Institute, where I have completed Level 3 training. Additionally, my clinical training includes UCSF’s Infant-Parent Program in San Francisco, as well as The Psychotherapy Institute and The Women’s Therapy Center, both in Berkeley. I offer relational work tailored to couples and family members, including adult children and their parents. Grounded in attachment theory, my approach recognizes that we are inherently wired to connect, and that disruptions in key relationships can lead to both emotional and physical challenges. I believe that learning to repair and nurture connections can help create stronger, more authentic relationships. Recognizing that every therapist’s approach is unique, I invite you to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation to explore whether my style aligns with your needs. If you are seeking greater authenticity and honesty in your relationships, please reach out, I look forward to connecting with you.
