I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in San Diego. I provide therapy to individual adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My therapeutic style is strength-based and I utilize positive psychology in my approach. I believe that we all have the strength within us to overcome any challenge that life throws our way - we may just need a little guidance and support to access and utilize those inner strengths. My main focuses include treating anxiety, stress management, disordered eating, poor body image, low self-esteem, trauma, depression, and relational difficulties. My services include: Eating Disorder Therapy, Anxiety Therapy, EMDR Therapy, Depression Therapy, Trauma Therapy, Teen Counseling, CBT Therapy and more.

I am an eclectic therapist and I utilize many different therapeutic modalities depending on my client’s current needs, circumstances, and overall personality. I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach and every client must be offered support in an individual and unique way. I am also a Registered Yoga Teacher so I utilize an array of mindfulness-based approaches when appropriate, especially when working with anxiety, stress, and depression.

My practice is poly-friendly, open to the LGBTQ+ community, gender non-conforming, cisgender, and heterosexual individuals. I meet the criteria for poly-friendliness due to experiences I have had working with clients, friends that identify as polyamorous and various articles I have read on the topic. I am trauma-informed and am also an EMDR clinician. I would love to help you access your inner strength.

I am a relationship enthusiast with 20 years of counseling experience. In the past 10 years, I have focused on counseling individuals, couples and moresomes on creative relationship structures: Polyamory, Open Relationships, Consensual Non-monogamy and Intimacy with a focus on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I also specialize in communication skills, sexuality, career transitions and mood related challenges, including anxiety, OCD and depression. As a member of the polyamorous, LGBTQ, and burner communities, I share my extensive personal and professional experience with clients.

For 9 years I have led the Polyamorous Women’s Discussion Group, a focal point for thought leaders in Consensual Non-Monogamy. Dr. Mark Sisti and I also host the Polyamorous Men’s Discussion Group.

I am a pragmatic therapist who meets clients where they are and assists them in creating a quality of life that is authentic to them. I have experience treating individuals/couples with life transitions, grief and loss issues, trauma, & anxiety. I assist clients in identifying symptoms that are negatively impacting their daily lives and possible root causes. I take a strength based perspective with an emphasis on evidence based practices while often incorporating humor into our sessions. My job is not to tell clients how to live their lives, but to provide a safe space to explore their desires and teach them tools to reach their therapeutic goals. My clientele includes the LGBTQ+ community, individuals living with health challenges/chronic pain, & older adults. I practice from a sex positive framework & specialize in concerns related to relationship issues, trauma, & polyamory/kink. I am currently engaging in continuing education regarding human sexuality to further my knowledge of sexuality as an integral part of clients’ lives. My ideal clients are couples/individuals who are open to engaging in an interactive & dynamic therapeutic relationship that is goal-oriented. My therapeutic practice is grounded in compassion and empathy while working with clients to cultivate sustainable life changes. I have a strong commitment to working with members of the LGBTQ+ community, of which I am a proud member, from a place of empowerment throughout all the stages of adulthood. In conjunction with sessions conducted via telehealth I provide home visits in the greater Boston area as my schedule allows.

Do you often find yourself thinking, “Part of me wants X, but part of me wants Y”? Do you feel stuck because it seems as though you are being pulled in multiple directions at the same time? Do you feel like you are sure about what you should do, but you “just cannot” get yourself to act? Do you see yourself acting out the same destructive pattern over and over again (i.e. lying awake at night worrying instead of going to sleep)? Do you feel like you are happy, but want to overcome emotional blocks to becoming the more sort of person you want to be? My partners and I do a form of counseling known as Internal Family Systems. We are all poly friendly. We also provide a number of other services, such as nutrition and exercise counseling, advice on procrastination, and much more.
