Welcome
We all have the capacity to engage with wisdom from within to move in a deeply meaningful direction through life’s transitions. Whether it be a career or relationship challenge, anxiety over the future, regret about the past, loneliness, confusion, fear, stress, grief, or sadness, pausing and gaining a deeper understanding is key to emerging with wisdom, balance, clarity, and purpose.
We work collaboratively with a wide range of clients from diverse backgrounds, age ranges, and with various clinical issues, primarily utilizing mindfulness and cognitive behavioral based practices. Our focus is on helping people to create more life balance, facilitate self-growth, enhance their self-esteem and live according to their values. Pain, at times, can feel all-encompassing, like being submerged under a giant wave. Therapy can help with learning the necessary tools to navigate those circumstances.
With over 25 years of combined experience at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), at the Veteran’s Administration hospitals, in research, as an Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at UCSD, and in private practice, we specialize in:
Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
