Bio
As a licensed psychologist, I work in three modes: Attachment-Focused EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples, and Preschooler-Parent Psychotherapy. Attachment-Focused EMDR helps people to “unstick the stuck places”, and facilitates healing from depression, anxiety, unresolved grief, and recurrently unhelpful behaviors. I have a private practice both in downtown San Francisco and Cow Hollow. I have completed EMDR Basic Training with Laurel Parnell, and am currently pursuing certification as an EMDR Therapist.
I specialize in working with cross-cultural issues at work and at home, and have many clients in interfaith, interracial or same-sex relationships. A member of National Training Labs (NTL), I have taught graduate students at the Wright Institute, the Institute for Transpersonal Psychotherapy and Argosy University, and have delivered trainings to other clinicians in California, Oregon, New York and Russia. I hold a doctorate from the California School of Professional Psychology, and an MBA from Stanford University.
