Deep down, I consider myself a seeker, someone driven by curiosity and thirst for knowledge. Being a seeker can mean different things to different people. For me, being a seeker means exploring the unknown, uncovering potential in uncertainty, and delving into life’s mysteries to foster personal growth and enrich relationships. My interests span various fields, including Eastern philosophy, quantum physics, brain/mind functioning, spirituality, and the essence of love and compassion.
As a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience, I specialize in working with couples. During the first 15 years of my career, I balanced private practice with roles in various agencies, where I ran training programs for doctoral students and provided supervision. I also served as Clinical Director at two agencies, managing supervising psychiatrists, psychologists, and marriage and family therapists.
For the past 15 years, I have dedicated myself exclusively to private practice. My diverse professional experiences have made my work with clients both challenging and rewarding. I am continually inspired by the courage people find within themselves to improve their lives and discover better paths.
