Therapist

You've done meaningful therapeutic work and you're ready to go deeper. You're successful in the external markers of your life, but you know there's more—greater depth, connection, and purpose waiting for you. You've addressed foundational trauma, and now you want to explore subtler patterns: how you hold back in intimacy, the meanings you're searching for, the fuller expression of yourself you sense is possible. You may be curious about psychedelic-assisted therapy as a tool for profound insight. You're not dealing with crisis, but are looking for a guide who can support you in moving from survival to fully living in your wholeness.

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am open, approachable, and committed to listening carefully to your experiences without judgment. I believe that each person carries a unique story, and my goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and encouraged as you navigate life’s challenges and opportunities for growth. Together, we can explore what is most important to you and work toward creating a life that feels meaningful, authentic, and aligned with your values.

My background includes earning a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, along with a lifelong appreciation for personal growth, nature, and the healing power of connection. Growing up learning to surf fostered a deep respect for the ocean and the lessons it offers about resilience, balance, and adapting to life's changing conditions. These experiences have shaped my belief in the importance of honoring each individual’s journey and recognizing that growth often comes through both challenge and reflection.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in San Francisco

San Francisco has a wide range of therapists across neighborhoods like the Mission, SoMa, the Haight, and the Richmond, so narrowing your search starts with what you want support for. You may be looking for therapy in San Francisco for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Provider bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

The number of therapists in San Francisco can make the search feel broad, especially when you factor in commute time, transit access, and appointment availability. Some people prefer an office near home, work, or a BART or Muni route, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling flexibility. As you compare therapists in SF, look at whether they offer appointments that fit your calendar, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you learn how each therapist structures sessions and communicates about care.

Therapy in San Francisco can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket cost. Headway helps you find therapists in San Francisco who are accepting new patients, may take your insurance, and offer clear cost estimates before you book. You can compare specialties, appointment formats, availability, and bios in one place, then book directly when you’re ready.
