Trusted Psychologist in Berkeley, CA
With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate complex emotional and relational challenges. My practice in Berkeley, CA, focuses on evidence-based therapies for trauma, anxiety, depression, and intergenerational patterns, informed by decades of clinical supervision and academic teaching. I hold a California Psychologist License (PSY18163) and have trained over 70 graduate students through my role as Training Director at Child Haven, Inc. My approach integrates attachment theory and trauma-informed care to foster resilience and personal growth. I offer free initial phone consultations to ensure clients find the right therapeutic fit.My expertise extends to capital punishment mitigation work, where I analyze the impact of early life trauma on developmental outcomes. I have taught courses on child development and trauma at institutions like the Wright Institute and NCSPP, ensuring my practice remains grounded in cutting-edge research. My supervision services support emerging clinicians in developing their therapeutic voice while maintaining clinical rigor. I prioritize creating a non-judgmental space where clients can explore cultural, relational, and personal challenges. This commitment to compassionate, individualized care has defined my practice since 2002.
