"For it is exceedingly near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, to do it." Deuteronomy 30:14

The subjects with which I deal, the palpable predicaments of life's ultimate issues - no one can claim that this is not for me; this does not pertain to my path in life. Theologians are able to guide in finding one's purpose in life; we have the righteous sages and spiritual leaders of every generation--that lead us on the path of truth.  We all need an instruction manual to a good life.  Each of us must search to find our spiritual guide that can help us find the way.

Face-to-Face Sessions

I work face-to-face with my clients in my sacred space in Burlingame, California.  Grief and psycho therapy sessions usually last 45 minutes and can be held inside my sacred space or outside.  

FaceTime, Zoom, and phone sessions

I also offer virtual bereavement sessions. (650) 477-8810

Blessings & Ritual Writing

I offer written blessings and ritual texts as a way of giving language to moments people wish to honor and remember. Each piece is original and written with care, drawing on relational, spiritual, and meaning-centered themes shaped by the particular lives, histories, and values of the individuals, couples, or families involved.

These offerings are not psychotherapy. They are reflective and ceremonial in nature, created to accompany weddings, anniversaries, memorials, life transitions, and other meaningful milestones. A blessing may be shared privately, spoken aloud, or kept as a lasting keepsake alongside photographs, letters, or family records.

The process is collaborative and thoughtful, guided by careful listening and respect for the emotional tone of each moment. Whether brief or more expansive, each piece is crafted with presence, clarity, and reverence for the human experience.

Psychotherapy & Psychoanalysis

In addition to my private practice, I provide psychotherapy as a distinct clinical service. My psychotherapy practice is based in San Francisco and Burlingame, California, where I work with individuals navigating grief, loss, life transitions, developmental and relational transitions, relationship concerns, and questions of meaning.

Separately, I am engaged in psychoanalytic training and clinical work through the Free Association Clinic for Existential Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis in San Francisco. This work is conducted within the clinic’s structure and ethical framework and is distinct from my Burlingame psychotherapy practice.

Each setting has its own boundaries, scope of practice, and supervisory oversight, and services are offered with careful attention to ethical clarity and professional standards.
