Psychotherapist
“Helping you connect with your innate resources and empowering you to make the changes necessary for a more fulfilling life.”
About Us
I offer a warm, collaborative space where you can connect with your innate strengths. We explore challenges together, helping you uncover personal resources and find clarity. This process is for anyone ready to make lasting changes towards a more fulfilling life. Our sessions focus on practical strategies. This supports you to build confidence and navigate your unique path forward.
Approach
Building on the clarity you bring, we move into a paced, practical rhythm that balances safety with forward movement. In our Pleasanton office, working in English, sessions feel focused and collaborative: we notice patterns, gently name what’s happening in your body and thinking, practice short tools between meetings, and selectively process difficult memories when the moment feels contained. This steady, body-aware pacing supports people recovering from trauma, managing anxiety or burnout, and those seeking sustainable personal growth.
