East Bay - SF Bay Area

Therapist specializing in social anxiety

I am a cognitive behavioral therapist in the Bay area. I love working with social anxiety and helping my clients overcome their fears and finding joy and pleasure in activities they formerly avoided. Often my clients are struggling with anxiety that prevents them from establishing intimate relationships or from being the person they want to be. I can introduce powerful cognitive tools and exposure practices to help you overcome these fears that become barriers to living your life to the fullest and help you build meaningful relationships starting with yourself.

A highly effective social anxiety treatment

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective therapy approaches to treat and overcome social anxiety. I use a therapy approach that improves upon CBT by addressing motivational issues that often impact recovery called T.E.A.M.-CBT. This therapy approach has been proven to provide rapid symptom reduction in issues such as social anxiety. With T.E.A.M.-CBT you can harness the power of the tools to change the way you feel by changing the way you think.

TEAM-CBT was founded by Dr. David Burns, one of the forerunners of CBT, author of Feeling Great, Feeling Good Mood Therapy, Feeling Good Together and more.

In-person & teletherapy

I currently offer online and in-person therapy options in the bay area. Online therapy sessions allows greater accessibility to quality care right out of the comfort of your home. In-person therapy is available at our Alameda or Berkeley, CA location.

I’d spent my whole life carefully camouflaging an anxiety disorder, but it had slowly, steadily gotten the best of me. In the weeks that followed, I found Rose a wonderful therapist, and I let her push me to push myself in ways that felt crazy and impossible. I slowly unlearned everything that I thought I knew about who I was, and how I fit into the world.
