I’ve had the honor and privilege of practicing therapy for over 20 years. Through being an instructor for several masters in counseling programs in the San Francisco Bay Area and serving as a clinical director to oversee therapists-in-training, I’ve been able to deepen my relationship with the field by fostering the next generation of therapists. In coming to Foresight, I’ve had the privilege of enhancing my skills further by supervising a wide range of accomplished therapists.I continue to be awed and inspired by how therapy can change lives. I’ve discovered that by shifting our thinking, behavior, perspectives and actions, we can live the quality of life we all deserve. And that there are a wide variety of powerful tools available to do just that. Let’s use these to enhance your life!
Feeling heard and understood in therapy sessions is crucial for effective treatment. My specialty is using an evidence-based practice called Positive Psychology to do just that. This method honors your inherent wisdom and heartfelt sensibilities. We can work together to solve unresolved issues, reduce feelings of sadness, lower anxiety and heal emotional wounds so you can begin to live the life you imagined. Not only can this lead to connecting more meaningfully to others, it can also deepen your connection to yourself.
Life is full of challenges! The fact that you are seeking new solutions to ongoing problems already shows lots of courage and resilience. Research consistently shows that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the strongest predictor of successful therapy. By providing a safe place to share your innermost thoughts, feelings and experiences, new insights and possibilities can be explored. Instead of asking ‘What is wrong with you?’, we can ask ‘What happened and how did you survive?’ Let’s work together to set the goals, use the tools and launch the changes you want to see in your life!
