have been a practicing psychotherapist for 34 years. At the beginning, I worked with diverse populations in community mental health settings. In the 1980s I began working in private practice, a setting that allowed me to pursue the work of depth psychotherapy and focus on facilitating transformative change.

My Masters work was at San Francisco State University, in Clinical Social Work.
My Bachelors work was at Pacific Oaks College, in Human Development, and at UCLA.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, #11544.

Numerous therapeutic models have shaped and enriched my work through the years, but the most powerful teacher has been my life itself.

I am affiliated with The Center For Transformative Therapies, in San Rafael, CA.
