I AM CLOSING MY PRIVATE PRACTICE AS OF OCTOBER 2019 AS I WILL BE JOINING THE DBT-A TEAM AT UCSF. I am no longer accepting any individual or skills class clients.
I am a licensed
clinical psychologist dedicated to providing evidence-based
psychotherapy that is tailored to address each client's specific needs
and goals. I specialize in cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and
dialectical-behavior (DBT) therapy for adults, young adults, and
adolescents.
I have expertise in treating:
- Major Depressive Disorder
- Bipolar Disorder
-
Anxiety Disorders
-
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
-
Eating Disorders
-
Borderline Personality Disorder
-
Self-Injurious Behaviors (e.g., cutting)
-
Impulsive/ risky behaviors (e.g., substance use, over-spending, risky sexual behaviors)
-
Relationship problems
Being a therapy client requires courage, patience, and a willingness to
work hard to make effective changes. As a psychologist, I
feel honored that people allow me into their lives and share their
thoughts, feelings, and experiences with me.
I believe wholeheartedly in the power of a strong and collaborative therapeutic relationship. I strive to help each client meet his/her treatment goals and build a more fulfilling life. And I also hope to have a little fun together along the way!
