I work from a person-centered approach in the therapeutic relationship with my client. I strive to meet each client "where they are" and to provide support to each person in his or her individual process of self-discovery and path towards self-actualization. Talking through your feelings and receiving an alternative viewpoint can be therapeutic in itself. I am interested in your personal story and will provide support, guidance, and understanding throughout your wellness journey. In working from a relational lens, I help individuals form better relationships with themselves and others. We will explore your unique story, discuss attachment and discover the underlying thoughts and feelings that may contribute to discord and conflict. In therapy, the client is the expert and the path and pace of therapy is the choice of the client. My role as a therapist is to provide structure and support while holding space for my client on his or her own personal journey towards healing and self discovery. Sometimes people just need someone to talk to. Therapy provides a warm and safe place to explore issues and clear emotional and mental obstacles so that you can live your best life. Transformation is not easy. It is a brave and difficult choice at times to make the decision to seek help for anything, including and sometimes especially, when it comes to mental health.

Addiction rewires the way that the brain functions so that impulses are strengthened and self-control mechanisms are bypassed. Mental health professionals sometimes characterize the changes as the three C’s of addiction: control, cravings, and consequences. Addiction takes over control through the use of cravings that must be satisfied, despite the negative consequences the behavior brings. What does that look like in real life? Here are a few symptoms of addiction:
If you recognized any of the signs of symptoms in your own life, it may be time to reach out for help. Like other serious illnesses, addiction often requires the supervision of a mental health professional for treatment. Addiction is not cured by being a stronger person—you already are a strong person. Addiction is cured by re-programming the brain. That often requires support groups, therapy, and/or medication. It is a difficult undertaking, but it is worth the effort.
No one has to fight an addiction alone—the professionals at Thriveworks San Francisco are here to help. We have appointments for addiction available. When you call to schedule an appointment, know that you may be meeting with your counselor the same week. We accept many forms of insurance. We also offer weekend and evening sessions. Call today.
