Help in the Midst of Change
I believe that everyone needs support at one time or another to deal with the complexity of new situations brought on by life transitions--whether divorce, sending children off to college (or pre-school), or grieving the loss of a parent. I enjoy helping clients through challenging experiences and issues, including stress and anxiety, depression, finding a sense of life direction, and recovering from cult experiences.
My Clients Are...
...mostly individuals. I especially enjoy working with menopausal women, and women of high school and college age.
I enjoy working with students and interns and others who are in a long-haul process of change or creation. I love helping you gestate your dreams into being.
I enjoy working with and appreciate the gifts of sensitive and intuitive clients.
My Therapy Style
My work is strongly influenced by my training in the Hakomi Method of body-centered psychotherapy. Hakomi work is gentle and respectful, and supports the safety of the client. As safety grows, your unconscious becomes our ally. Using curiosity, mindfulness and body awareness, I assist you in learning about your self and finding ways to support your own natural healing process. In sessions, sometimes we talk; sometimes we pay attention to your emotions and the cues your body gives us. We can learn much by giving awareness to your experience in the moment. Experiments we devise together in sessions also assist in deepening into and unfolding past experiences and the meanings and beliefs they carry for you. Through this process, old stories can be updated and transformed.
For More Information
I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation. Please call me at (415) 298-6516 if you have a question or would like more information.

Living From the Inside Out
One of my specialties is working with women who have been trained as girls to be self-sacrificing, and who excel at putting other people first. Service is a wonderful thing, in balance. In learning to be more self-referencing, you can start to live from the inside out, gaining balance and confidence, finding your voice and feeling more comfortable in your own skin.
