Dancing Your Bliss

Bliss Psychotherapy

Find Inner Peace


With over a decade of experience I bring a combination of traditional psychotherapy with movement, body awareness and spirituality.  I help clients unlock issues which are literally held inside the body; like fear, anger, depression and creative blocks.  I unlock these issues through my proprietary work merging talk therapy with expressive arts (sometimes with breath & movement techniques) so that these issues don't become diseases in our bodies.  I believe that counseling is about helping clients reach their goals while creating a life that is meaningful. My clients develop an awareness of their needs and a newfound ability to experience greater aliveness, creativity and fulfillment in their lives.

Psychotherapy helps us better understand our thoughts, feelings, and relationships with others.  It also helps us make connections between past experiences and present day behaviors.

Finding a therapist who is a good fit for you is very important. I bring tremendous personal warmth, deep respect and strong clinical experience to my practice.  By creating a safe, relaxed, non-judgmental space, I will help you move to your fullest potential.

You do not need to suffer anymore. Please call today for your free telephone consultation. Inner peace can be yours. Even if we do not work together, I am happy to help you find a wonderful therapist who can assist you as soon as possible. Call today. I am here for you.

Men and women speak different languages. Once we accept this, we can work together and you can see your life change.

I understand that the field of psychotherapy hasn't done a particularly good job of creating a user-friendly environment for men.  I get it. I offer stress-management, skills training, coaching and consulting for my male clients.  I also give homework, action plans and a map of what to expect in therapy. 

As a relationship expert, I will also help you to discover the love and connection you are looking for. Together we create a safe environment so that we can work towards your goals efficiently. Call today. (415) 820-3223

Dance Your Bliss is an innovative and fun approach to healing. Maybe you want to feel better about your body, or you just haven't felt fully alive in a while. Maybe you are moving through a particularly hard time. Whatever the challenge, Dance Your Bliss can be a lovely solution.  This healing movement system is incredibly fun, freeing and transformational.  Perfect for trained dancers as well as anyone who runs the other way when the word dance is mentioned, Dance Your Bliss will have you forgetting your fear and moving with grace in no time.  This multi-layered deeply powerful movement system will help you love your body like never before, while discovering the inner dancer (yes, you do have one!) in you.  Using improvisational structures, guided imagery, empowerment, art making and somatic psychotherapy, everyone is offered a tailor-made experience to ensure the richest experience possible. We create deep community, self-appreciation, creative expression, play and much, much more.
