Welcome to my practice.
Hello, I am a San Francisco and Oakland based licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years experience providing psychotherapy to women, moms, and moms-to-be, particularly in the areas of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and infertility. I am committed to helping women navigate difficult transitions and identities in their life, toward becoming more balanced, empowered and self-compassionate individuals.
Many women I work with run into obstacles in starting a family, a challenging pregnancy or loss, a history of depression or anxiety, difficulties with nursing or transitioning back to work, high expectations, perfectionism, not feeling "good enough", difficulty balancing roles and adjusting to early parenthood.
Our culture gives us a distorted message about the way these things really are and minimizes how they affect women's mood, stress level, and self-esteem. This leaves many women feeling inadequate and alone.
I am also passionate about helping young woman who are struggling with adulting, relationships, boundaries, and family of origin issues.
In a professional, supportive and collaborative therapy experience, we can address and work through your concerns together.
Please call me at 415.487.7402 to see if we might be a good fit or send me a message via my contact form.
