About My Practice
Trying to schedule a regular appointment can be a complex thing to try to fit in for so many reasons. I try to create as flexible a calendar for scheduling as I can to meet as many schedule needs as possible. I have session times listed below, and schedule consultations and evaluations around those times. I usually begin with a plan to schedule weekly sessions, and can arrange more or less frequency depending on what works best for us. Each appointment is 50 minutes.
Right now, my schedule is quite full and very dynamic as I try to accommodate various scheduling arrangements. Due to this, I may not have a routine day or time appointment available that fits your schedule, but I will always try to get there quickly if that works best for you.
Appointments
I hold sessions Monday through Wednesday 12:00 to 7:00 and Thursdays 11:00 to 6:00. I may have occasional one-time appointments open at other times for initial consults, and assessments. Sessions can be in-person, remotely, or both as scheduling permits.
Available remotely Mon, Tues, Thurs and in-person on Wednesdays
My schedule is very full. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule or refer you to other therapists who might be a great fit.
About the Office
Meeting In Person
Our therapy office was designed with environmental friendliness in mind. Clean, sanitized, gently used furniture and accessories are used whenever possible, and supplies are natural, organic, recyclable, and compostable when possible. The office is free from direct animal products (fabrics, candles, etc) and is low-scent. There are a few options for seating (couch or chair, wood or fabric, mat for the floor), and lighting (brightness and hue). There are a range of sensory tools and toys available (fidgets, weighted blankets, card decks, sand). We have filtered water, air filters in each room, hand sanitizer, and a sink in the waiting room if you would like to wash your hands or gather yourself before you leave.
The office is up one floor and down a long hallway. There is elevator access in the building, no steps to entry, and a push button security system with a numeric code for entrance.
Our building has gendered restrooms on each floor and an all gender restroom on the ground level. Keys for the restrooms are located in our waiting room.

Meeting Remotely
I typically use Doxy.me, a secure and therapy-specific platform for remote meetings. We can discuss other options if that ever doesn't work for us.
When meeting remotely, I am usually in my home office space. I share my space with 3 dogs and a cat. They sometimes join us in our sessions, and you might hear them if the doorbell rings or they decide to loudly communicate about something. I can contain them if they feel like a distraction.
Land Acknowledgement
I live and work on the stolen land of the Ohlone and Muwekma people, currently known as San Francisco.
Respects to these indigenous elders and youth and everyone in between, past, present and future. I recognize and honor their continuing connection and contribution to this land and our plants, animals, air, water, and world.
