My Biography

I have always wanted to work at Kaiser Permanente because I believe that the organization delivers high-quality, affordable health care to many people. I appreciate the setting, one that allows me to provide quality psychotherapy to those who may not have found access to therapy elsewhere. Through our comprehensive, full-spectrum care model, Kaiser provides exemplary care to patients, especially with regards to the mind/body connection. My belief is that integration of mind and body plays a significant role in achieving mental health. Eastern and western philosophies also have an important place in treatment.

I enjoy the diversity of my client population, and the challenge of the wide range of problems I encounter. I work collaboratively to help my clients grow and triumph over personal obstacles, and to help them live happier and more fulfilling lives. My patients stimulate my own personal growth, too, as I also learn from them. Kaiser’s system permits me to be creative and interactive in designing individualized treatment plans for each person.

I live a balanced life and try to incorporate some daily physical activity. As an example to my patients, I plan some quiet time on a regular basis for rest and regeneration.

An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
