Do you find yourself struggling to feel seen and heard? 
Are you craving more connection and feedback about how others experience you? 
Would you like to have a supportive place to take risks in relating in new and different ways?

​Group therapy can be a powerful vehicle for working through interpersonal issues. Groups function as a microcosm of the real world, and give us an opportunity to try out new modes of authentic interaction with a wide range of people. Hearing from others who have dealt with similar issues can help us understand our own predicaments; and having an opportunity to tell our own stories can empower us to find out authentic voice. My groups are confidential and help participants get valuable feedback in a supportive and connected environment. ​These groups are inclusive and affirming places for people of all genders, sexual orientations, races, cultures, faiths, sizes, and lifestyles. 
​

Who can benefit from groups? 

In general people come to Group Therapy to work on improving their relationships. Some of the specific issues that bring people to Group Therapy are:

• Social Anxiety or Depression
• ​Difficulty managing or accessing anger
• Perfectionism, self-criticism, shame
• Loneliness or isolation
• Difficulty finding or sustaining relationships
• Feeling disconnected from one's own authenticity or emotional experiences

What happens in Group Therapy? 

During a Group Therapy session, members work to express their thoughts and feelings as freely and honestly as possible. This allows members the chance to understand others at a deeper level as well as learn more about themselves by studying how they interact in the group. 

​Do you have special training in group therapy? 

Yes. I have a deep appreciation for the transformative potential of group psychotherapy and I bring confidence and experience to the groups I run.  I have received advanced training through the Center for Group Studies in New York City since 2014 and I am also a member and faculty presenter at the American Group Psychotherapy Association,  Northern California Group Psychotherapy Association, and Group Therapy Training Program in Berkeley.
