Coherence Counseling, MA

My work is informed by my study of coherence therapy with Bruce Ecker, its co-founder, as well as almost ten years of Buddhist meditation practice. Both of these traditions have taught me that understanding and acceptance are the path to deep and lasting change.

As a therapist, I see my clients as experts in their own experience and the ones who decide what change they want to make. My role is to help them make sense out of what is keeping them stuck. I have found over and over again with my clients that there is a hidden emotional core at the root of each problem, and that change happens as soon as that core is recognized.

I offer therapy, consultation and training in Oakland, CA, and am a principle developer of the Coherence Psychology Institute's 2-year training program for therapists. I also lead workshops in mindfulness-based practices for personal growth and emotional stability.

I received my Masters degree from New College of California, where I specialized in the intersection of politics and psychotherapy and was a recipient of the community activist scholarship for my work educating people about sustainabilty.
