| Practice Description: |
 | New clients welcome! Offering sessions via online video or phone, until it's safe to resume in-person sessions. Need support? Reach out today! May you be safe and healthy. |
Welcome, and congratulations--seeking out a therapist is a big step! If you'd like to understand how your mind causes you mischief--anxiety, stress, depression, anger, addictions, or relationship problems--I can help you to pursue those goals.
I have over 20 years of experience in mindfulness meditation and practice, and a thorough understanding of how our thoughts, stories, and assumptions result in either increased stress, or increased happiness and well-being. I also make good use of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy in helping adult and teen survivors who have issues related to sexual abuse or sexual addiction.
Mindfulness can bring increased happiness because it helps us to befriend ourselves, discover sources of painful emotions or moods, face life's challenges, and create satisfying relationships. Of course life brings us difficult people and painful situations, but we can learn to respond to them with more wisdom and peace of mind.
Before our first session, you and I will discuss your needs and my services, determine whether you are eligible for reimbursement from your health plan, and agree upon a therapy fee. I can provide you with statements that you can submit to your insurance carrier for reimbursement. I’m willing to make financial arrangements with Kaiser members and others who have to pay out-of-pocket.
I would be happy to speak with you by phone and answer your questions. Please feel free to call anytime for a free phone consultation. People tell me that I am "easy to talk to."
