Our childhood experiences shape the way we view and experience ourselves, others, and the world. When we understand why we think, feel, and behave the way we do, we can begin to accept our past and enjoy our present.

We will work together on identifying and changing self-defeating patterns, developing healthier ways to manage emotions and challenging situations, resolving past traumas and inner conflicts, and uncovering the underlying meanings of your behaviors.

I use the past strategically to connect the dots to today’s unhelpful patterns that are no longer serving you and causing distress in your life.

I am a licensed clinical and forensic psychologist by training and own a private practice in San Diego where I specialize in forensic and psychological evaluations as well as psychodynamic therapy for adolescents and adults in the community.
