Needing Help?
Found success but don’t feel satisfied? Have a good business but feeling too stressed? Burned-out?Worried about your ability to lead? Anxious or depressed? Stuck in patterns you don’t understand? Relationships don’t work? Ready to seek help? As a an experienced psychologist, I may be able to help.
I am the founder and president of Bay Psychology Group, Inc. a contemporary psychodynamic therapy group in Oakland, CA, where we provide psychological services to hundreds of people throughout CA. I continue to provide psychotherapy, though only to those who I feel most able to help. I have helped many people face issues including cross-cultural stressors, sexual difficulties, lack of pleasure despite success, anxiety, depression, trauma, gender-dysphoria, sexual orientation issues, relationship problems, and work-place difficulties–to name a few.
I bring cultural awareness and humility to all of my work, being fortunate enough to have been an expat several times personally. I understand how significant this can be in understanding suffering. For more information on my background click here.
I am currently accepting a limited number of patients for virtual sessions. I take some types of SHIP, Anthem, and Medicare coverage. Please visit my fee and insurance page for more information.
