Guest Bio
From the Guest: I am dedicated to helping people repair their relationships--with themselves and others. In private practice in San Francisco, I also lecture at Pierce Counseling Center on resentment and forgiveness, and teach a couples class at Temple Emanu-El. My work is influenced by my experience of having cancer, which prompted me to re-examine my life and leave a 10-year business career to pursue my calling as a psychotherapist. I love helping people harness life's challenges to grow from them. I hold advanced degrees from Harvard Business School and California Institute of Integral Studies, and am also informed by spiritual practice.
