Mindful Mental Health Counseling
& Phobease Anxiety Workshops
Counseling Services
As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I provide a safe, non-judgmental, confidential environment and an empathetic, compassionate, and learned ear to help you address the issues that are impacting your sense of well-being.
I take a person-centered approach which means I honor your uniqueness, personal strengths, and lived experience, and your right to make decisions that are best for you. We will partner throughout the process: we will work at a pace which you feel most comfortable and we will explore your goals for what you'd like to accomplish through our time together and we will create a plan to meet those goals that is tailored to you specifically.
In our work together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings and how they may be impacting your view of yourself, others, or your circumstance. You may learn and practice skills that help you deal with strong emotions and cope with life’s challenges or reduce stress and increase resiliency.

Anxiety Workshop: Phobease
Dr. Howard Liebgold, former Head of Rehab at Kaiser Permanente, developed a program for people, like him, who suffered from paralyzing anxiety, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. He coined the term "phoboc" to represent the anxious, phobic and obsessive-compulsives, who - also - like him were smart, caring, sensitive, capable, empathetic, creative, imaginative people who also suffered from debilitating worries that were limiting their ability to live full, expansive lives.
This workshop has helped thousands of people, including myself, find freedom from fear and go on to live fuller lives. As a graduate of the program, I know first hand how the program that Dr. Liebgold has developed can help us all safely face our fears and go on to live expansive lives. Its my great honor and privilege to continue sharing Dr. Liebgold's work through Phobease workshops and bring his life-changing program to you!
