In addition to a Ph.D. I have a B.A. in business and a minor in physical education from U.S.C. where I learned the importance of setting clear, practical goals and finding the most effective and efficient way of accomplishing them. In counseling, I do the same thing. During the first meeting with a client, we quickly determine a goal(s) and develop a specific plan of action to achieve the desired goal(s). Cognitive and behavioral changes are prescribed and practiced in between appointments. Most clients accomplish their goals within 1 to 12 sessions.

Office Information/Hours

Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. I personally return all phone calls the day they are received, except for Wednesdays, when I am usually not in. After hours, someone is available 24 X 7 to take your message, schedule an appointment or, in an emergency, reach me.

If you are unable, or it is inconvenient, to come to the office in person, you may arrange a telephone and/or video consultation. This may sound a little unusual at first, but I have been effectively conducting telephone consultations for many years. For example, clients from other states, even those who have never been in this office, are successfully using telephone consultations to accomplish their goals and solve their problems. Now, in addition, I am doing face-to-face, live video consultations. This began with a client I was SEEING in Australia, while I was in my office in San Jose, California. "Counseling in the comfort of your home," as my wife calls it.
