Services I Offer
Therapy
I offer tailored individual therapy focused on nonjudgmentally identifying patterns that are keeping you stuck, understanding old coping behaviors, and learning new skills and ways of navigating situations to meet your goals. Therapy sessions typically last 45 mins and once weekly; though this can be customized to your unique needs.
When I do not have availability for new patients, I may be able to help you connect to a therapist who practices in a similar manner as me, as I work with a team of like-minded specialists at the California Psychology Center,
At-your-own-pace online course
Based on a recurring pattern I have noticed in my patients, and healthcare professionals at large, I have developed an online course on overcoming people-pleasing. It is for anyone who struggles to consider their own needs, tending to put the needs of others before their own, and then feeling highly burnout, uncared for, and exhausted.
This course is a step-by-step guide created based on research and my clinical experience using video lessons, readings, worksheets and exercises to help you understand difficulty speaking up and saying no, and then learn specific skills that will help you find your voice (e.g., assertiveness skills, a framework for tolerating anxiety). The students who have taken this course report feeling increases in wellbeing, a sense of freedom, and less fear of others being mad at them after taking the course.
Clinical Consultation
As a clinical supervisor at Stanford University’s School of Medicine and Clinic Director at the California Psychology Center, I have honed a specific skill-set in supporting other mental health providers who are stuck on challenging clinical problems. Consultation with me is experiential and nonjudgemental, getting to the heart of stuck points, conceptualizing both your own reactions as well as your client's struggles, and exploring new ways of working through these (hint: you're not a bad person, atherapist, or doing it all wrong).
Career-Related Consultation
I commonly work with people to overcome fears of giving presentations, negotiating, having difficult conversations, and job interviewing. It can also be helpful to receive support in thinking through effective ways to meet your career goals, clarifying your professional interests and navigating challenging work situations.
Training and Workshops
I have experience giving training and workshops on stress management in both academic and corporate contexts.
The way that I offer training is flexible and can be tailored to your group’s specific needs.
