Clinical Social Work Therapist
Oakland, CA
I see myself as a collaborator, and I see you as an expert on your own life. I support in guiding you, helping you to make sense of your experiences and discover new ways of healing. I can help you explore your strengths, lean on them, identify what it is that is no longer serving you, and challenge you in ways that are in alignment with your values and your goals.
