I am a marriage and family therapist specializing in working with recovery from abuse and trauma. I graduated from New College of California where I studied psychodynamic and relational therapy. For years, I ran a training program for interns in San Francisco at an outpatient recovery clinic for women struggling with addiction and trauma. Training and supervising new therapists gave me an opportunity to familiarize myself with a wide variety of techniques and approaches, including cognitive behavioral interventions, relaxation training, harm reduction and abstinence based approaches. I received extensive training in and am certified in EMDR and as an EMDR consultant. I have a private practice with locations in Oakland and San Francisco. I have experience working with a wide range of concerns; specialties include people with histories of trauma and/or addiction and members of the LGBTQ community.
