Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors

“Individual counseling for adults. Areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, family-of-origin, and relationship issues.”

About Me

I provide individual Counseling for adults navigating anxiety, depression, or complex family-of-origin and relationship issues. Together, we can explore the patterns that may be holding you back and find new ways to approach challenges. My aim is to create a calm, confidential space where you can share openly and gain clarity. This approach is ideal for those ready to understand their experiences and build stronger connections in their lives.

Approach

When patterns from early family life and present relationships surface, I lean into how they show up in daily thoughts, choices, and stress responses to find practical shifts. I meet with adults in Kentfield or online in English, keeping sessions steady and paced to what feels manageable that week. Together we try small experiments, track reactions between meetings, and bring focused reflection to recurring habits so insight becomes usable. This way of working often fits people ready for clear, steady steps toward calmer routines and stronger connections.
