About me
I am an experienced licensed Marriage Family Therapist, and I am dedicated to helping adults with anxiety/ depression/life transitions/grief and relationship issues.
I have been in private practice on and off since 2000 and I hold a Master of Science degree in counseling/psychology from Dominican University in San Rafael, California.
I participated in the two-year Advanced Training Program at the Women's Therapy Center in El Cerrito. There I worked with couples and individuals with diverse backgrounds.
For several years I worked as a Counselor (and Registered Nurse) in Drug-and Rehabilitation Centers.
I have completed The Gottman Researched-Based Approach for Marital Therapy Level I & II and Dr. Sue Johnson's Emotional Focused Couple Therapy Externship 2020, and Individual Emotional Focused Therapy Level I, 2023.
I am a Certified Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist.
