About
PLEASE NOTE: I am not scheduling appointments currently.
I have worked with clients from ages 3 to 83, on a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, abuse, life transitions, anger, trauma, self-esteem, chronic illness, grief and loss, senior issues, family and couples relationships, and blended families. I draw on my own life experiences in providing compassionate and empathic therapy. I offer some court-mandated services.
I provide services through the Sutter Employee Assistance Program (EAP) or Optum, or on a self-pay basis. I can also provide you with a superbill to provide to your insurance company.
My background is diverse!
