I like to provide a supportive and caring environment which enhances a client’s capacity for growth and change. My background and training emphasize a multicultural and multidisciplinary approach. My strengths as a clinician are humor, compassion, and sensitivity. I specialize in working with lesbians and gay men and have experience working with people with HIV and chronic illness. I also provide consultations and classes in diversity, multicultural issues and homophobia awareness.

I was on the board of directors of the Santa Clara Valley chapter of CAMFT (California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists) for four years and am currently involved in their Committee on Therapist Well-Being.
