    Meet Barbara

    I'm glad you're here. I have worked with adults, youth, couples and families for over 15 years in a variety of outpatient and private practice settings.

    In addition, I completed my internship and post-internship at the Haight Ashbury Free Clinic in co-occurring counseling.

     

    My specific areas of interest lie in work with clients of all ages as they rediscover their inherent capacity for growth. I also provide couples and family counseling, adolescent counseling, and support to clients as they heal from chronic and acute trauma. I have extensive training and experience in these areas.

    My Approach to Therapy

    My passion is helping clients rediscover their true potentials and bring joy back into their lives. I follow a strengths-based model of practice while utilizing a combination of psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques.

     

    I believe in a holistic approach, in that all of our experiences (physical, emotional, spiritual, and social) are integral in our unique compositions.

    Our early experiences often show up in our current lives, and can manifest themselves in a myriad of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

    I value the interaction with my clients and believe in empowering clients by direct participation in the therapeutic process.
