I work with women and LGBTQ+ folks on a range of issues, from managing anxiety and depression, to improving self-esteem, to healing from past trauma or loss. Many of my clients have experienced violence in an intimate relationship, and I have specialized...

Sick of trying to get emotional support from a screen? I get it. Teletherapy works great for some. For others, it feels awkward or uncomfortable. Being on camera and seeing yourself on a screen can make it hard to be vulnerable and feel connected with your therapist. I offer both in-person and remote sessions. If teletherapy works for you, we can connect by phone or video. If it doesn't, we can meet in my office. Either way, I'll be here when you're ready. Text me at 415-841-3338 to set u...
