I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in California with 14 years of professional work experience. Over my years of clinical experience, I have helped clients deal with everything from minor everyday stressors to severe psychiatric illness. My particular area of interest is women's health and well being, especially symptoms of depression and anxiety stemming from life stressors. My goal is always to help clients understand why they feel the way they do and then work together to function and feel their best. My other area of interest is couples therapy, and I particularly enjoy working on improving communication and conflict resolution.
My background is as a family systems therapist, which means I pay particular attention to how a person interacts with important relationships and their environment. I would describe my style as warm and accepting, and I genuinely enjoy working with my clients and hearing people’s stories. I tend to prefer a pragmatic and logical approach and enjoy helping clients get to the root cause of their stresses.
Additional areas of focus: Caregiver issues and stress, Communication problems, Mood disorders
