About Me
I offer psychotherapy to help you navigate personal, couple, and family concerns. I welcome LGBTIQ individuals and families, supporting unique paths to well-being. Whether you're facing parenting dilemmas, mother-daughter dynamics, or workplace stress, we can explore effective strategies. My Anger & Assertiveness Women's Group provides a focused space to develop clear communication and boundaries. Clients find a supportive environment to find their voice and build stronger connections.
Approach
Effective, practical sessions focus on small, doable shifts that change how you relate to partners, children, and colleagues. In Berkeley I offer in-person and online appointments in English, paced around your day so reflection and action fit your life. I track repeating patterns with you, offer gentle challenge and clear communication exercises, and arrange short experiments to try between meetings that clarify boundaries and repair connections. People juggling parenting, relationship transitions, identity questions, or workplace strain often find this steady, hands-on way of working useful.
