In everyone's life, some heartache will happen. Some days, the things we do to cope with stress no longer work as well as they once did; other days, it may feel like everything is falling apart. No matter what your struggle is, we will work together to understand the source of your problems and develop practical strategies to reach your goals. In your first session, we will begin to answer the question, "What would help look like right now?" and help you cultivate and develop tools you may not even know you had within your reach.
Sometimes challenges occur by events we cannot control: accidents, illness, unexpected death, being laid off, or traumatic experiences. Other times, relationships could benefit from extra attention and improved communication. Career uncertainty, spiritual questions, and other personal growth areas can also be safely explored to better understand your feelings and decision-making processes.
I offer 20+ years of clinical experience as a licensed psychologist, as a Clinical Professor at Fuller Graduate School of Psychology, and as the Director of four national cross-site, federally-funded research projects on evidence-based clinical practices. Individual adult, adolescent, and couples clients, straight and gay, and all genders are welcome.
