About
I am a clinical psychologist specializing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I treat adults with depression, anxiety (panic, worry, phobias), social anxiety, ADHD, insomnia, and life stress. I am a partner at the San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy and an Assistant Clinical Professor at UC Berkeley. I believe in a collaborative approach that emphasizes symptom relief, skill building and self-exploration. I have published two books on CBT, CBT for Depression, Essential Strategies to Manage Negative Thoughts and Start Living Your Life and The Insomnia Workbook for Teens. I have extensive training in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and CBT-I (CBT for insomnia) , the gold-standard treatment for depression, anxiety and insomnia. I also have extensive experience working with adults with ADHD, individuals navigating major life transitions and chronic health problems (multiple sclerosis, lupus, cancer, chronic pain).
