Warm and compassionate with a touch of tough love, challenging and encouraging and very active in session.

I am active in session and offer observations and hypotheses relying on a mutual collaboration to help us understand how to help you resolve issues. I incorporate aspects of CBT, mindfulness, experiential and psychodynamic approaches.

Resolve potential internal barriers that keep you stuck and help you lead a more fulfilling life overall. Work collaboratively on symptom relief and optimize strategies for better mental health.

Helping people understand how they inadvertently self sabotage. We do this together by examining examples of self defeat. I help patients resolve consequences of past traumas that may keep them stuck in their current situation.

I've always been very interested in what forms us and how we become the way we are. I love my work and helping people resolve issues is rewarding.

My office is located in Del Mar with close access to oceanv iews and beautiful walks before or after therapy.

I have been in practice for 25 years and incorporate an ecclectic approach, tailored to who is seeking help and for what issue.
