Feel stuck? I can offer you professional assistance during difficult times. I'm a good listener. I really care. I've been a therapist 30 years in Berkeley and San Francisco.

Let's discuss the roles, dramas, and stories you are carrying around and what you can do to help you move forward. If there's not enough joy in your life, here's a chance to laugh again.

You may be leaving out or adding too much in your perception of things. Codependence, an automatic focusing on others, can harm your well-being. Fear of your next step may loom large and need calming. Your sadness and anger may need expression.

Stress may have you too hurried and worried. Feeling empty, you may yearn for real connectedness and self-worth. Compulsive habits can interfere. You may feel your success is undeserved or that you don't belong.

In a relationship you may feel frustrated, concerned with communication, wondering about saving or ending it. You may space out to avoid being overwhelmed. Strength is in befriending your feelings and intuition.

My background includes clinical work, transactional analysis, zen meditation, specialized work with people from alcoholic and abusive families, stress reduction, body awareness and Focusing. I'm experienced in empowerment training, addiction counseling, nature's healing power, loving inner adult development, Attention Deficit Disorder treatment, creativity and intuition enhancement. I've published several articles in OPEN EXCHANGE and Recovering about self-care and relationships. Call or e-mail for printed articles.

Clients come from many backgrounds of culture, bi-culture mix, race, class, lifestyle and orientation. I speak Spanish and have been a community organizer.
