I graduated from the California Institute of Integral Studies with a Master of Arts degree in Integral Counseling Psychology. I received an additional two years of training in Gestalt therapy at Church Street Integral Counseling Center, where I served as an intern for one year.
My experience as a Church Street Intern provided me opportunities to work with individuals and couples from different ethnic, cultural, socioeconomic, age, and sexual orientation/gender identity backgrounds. I have worked with people of color, people from the LGBTQ communities, senior citizens, and everyone in between.

The “Ground Rules”
Prior to becoming a therapist, I studied Neuro-Linguistic Programming. From that experience I took 3 ideas that particularly resonate with me:
- People are always doing the best they can. Human beings work perfectly to produce the results they are getting. No one is broken. Healing, growth, and success are not a question of getting rid of behaviors, but rather of acquiring more behavioral choices that provide more options for useful responses in all areas of life.
- Mind and Body are part of the same system and they affect each other. Everything influences everything and does so all the time.
- Asking “how?” is more useful than “why?”
I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation to answer questions and to make a space where you can get a feel for how we might work together.
