Utilizing my therapeutic background and deep understanding of neurobiology and the power of communication, I help industry leaders, award-winning creatives and professional athletes remove the blocks that hinder them from reaching their true potential. This growth then becomes even more significant as it compounds while reverberating throughout the company.
Our work together will include all aspects of individual and team development, including understanding how to prime teams to enter group flow states; how to deliver important information in a way that will best be understood; and how to maintain one’s mental and physical health while thriving in fast-paced environments. The ultimate goals will be rediscovering focus, a feeling of fulfillment and even joy all while creating a legacy.
I generally meet with individuals once per week for three to six months. We then reevaluate the frequency, often moving to meeting twice per month. For teams, we initially meet every other week, unless the situation requires more immediate attention.
I use a holistic approach to help people develop deeply authentic and fulfilling lives by lessening their critical inner voice (driven by fear and shame) and integrating a new inner voice of self-compassion and self-acceptance. Our work together will be informed with aspects of existential psychology, attachment theory, internal family systems and mindfulness with the goals of 1) increasing emotional flexibility, 2) an integration of the body and the mind and 3) the ability to engage fully in all relationships and endeavors.
I also have an extensive background helping individuals and couples navigate the intimacy of relationships and sexuality, as well as helping many individuals and their families recover from depression, anxiety and addictive/ compulsive behaviors.
I earned my masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. I completed my undergraduate degree with Phi Beta Kappa honors at Florida International University (and also received a culinary degree while living in Paris). I am a member of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists and am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, #109431.
