Choosing to start therapy can be a daunting decision. I believe that making the phone call is the first step in taking care of yourself.

I have been in private practice for more than twenty years, specializing in issues of self esteem, anxiety, couples/marital difficulties, stress, depression, parenting, loss, life transitions, and communication. And, as a long time Fremont resident, I am acutely aware of the unique issues that affect Bay Area residents on a daily basis.  I strive to provide a safe, relaxed environment so that each person entering therapy with me feels comfortable enough to discuss and work through the issues that they are facing.

My practice focuses on adults and couples using an eclectic blend of therapy based on the needs of each individual/couple.  My office is centrally located in Fremont and I do provide handicap access.  Within my suite of offices there are over 60 years of therapeutic knowledge. I am well versed in the  resources that we have in the Tri-City area and am able to make appropriate referrals when necessary.

Please call to set up an individual or couples consultation.
