Strengthening Mind-Body-Spirit connections
My clinical services are provided as a Licensed Psychologist in California (PSY22096), specializing in Behavioral Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and Health Psychology.
I have provided clinical services in a variety of medical, psychiatric, and psychological settings since 1986. After earning my doctorate in 2001, I completed three years of supervised medical psychology training in an interdisciplinary physician-directed chronic pain rehabilitation medical clinic. I am Board Certified in Biofeedback and Applied Psychophysiology, and hold Senior Fellow status with the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA3105).
All services are by appointment, confidential, and solution focused.
CLINICAL SERVICES
My clinical practice provides non-pharmacological treatment for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and chronic pain, with focus on reducing reliance on medications for those who wish to do so. Services are typically reimbursed by medical insurance. Coverage varies by diagnosis and insurer. I do not accept private insurance. However, I do accept Medicare.
CONSULTING SERVICES
My consulting practice provides counseling for existential and transpersonal issues, with focus on cultivating the growth oriented dimension of personality. Consulting services are typically not covered by medical insurance, unless provided as ancillary to treatment of a diagnosed medical/psychiatric disorder.
TRAINING & EXPERIENCE
I have a PhD in Psychology, and am a Licensed Psychologist (PSY22096) in California. Prior to the PhD I earned an MA in Interdisciplinary Consciousness Studies with focus in Holistic Health Education and Transpersonal Counseling Psychology, and I'm board certified in biofeedback and applied psychophysiology (BCIA-Senior Fellow, BCIA3105).
My experience encompasses anxiety, mood, and sleep disorders; pain and stress management; and existential-humanistic and transpersonal counseling.
