Hi, I’m Syd (he/him), a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) serving adults in California.

I work with people who want to

• Reduce the effects of anxiety, depression, and trauma

• Receive support as they move through something difficult (grief, loss, illness, disability, life transitions)

• Change how they relate to other people (partners, family, friends, people at work)

• Understand themselves better 

I enjoy working with a wide range of clients. I have extensive experience working with individuals who identify with these communities:

• Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual people

• People navigating their aging process in their 60s, 70s, and 80s

• People living with chronic illness or caring for someone with a chronic illness

I invite you to explore my content (linked in the navigation bar at the top of the page) to learn more about what therapy with me is like. You can also schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
