Hello, I work with San Francisco professionals who struggle with anxiety, depression, panic disorder, self esteem issues, relationship problems, barriers to intimacy, codependency, trauma, recovery, and general uncertainty around life and career. There are many reasons to begin therapy. No issue is too small or unworthy of consideration and care. Sometimes the stated reasons for seeking therapy are beacons for something deeper.
Berkeley Hypnosis & Pain Management

At Berkeley Hypnosis, I can help you successfully: *Stop Smoking I use five techniques to cover the different aspects that keep you coming back to cigarettes like an ex you know is bad for you, but you can't seem to break up with. I help you break your attachment to cigarettes, break free of the three or four cigarettes per day that you really enjoy (like the one with your morning coffee or the one with dinner or the ones during your breaks at work).

I received a remarkable reduction of back pain when working with Berkeley Hypnosis and Pain Management. Mahesh has an array of skills and techniques that he used in his treatment of my pain and distress. He explained why the techniques worked and how I could integrate them into my personal life. If I ever have an issue with major pain, I will certainly turn again to Mahesh at Berkeley Hypnosis and Pain Management.

I customize therapy to fit each client’s specific needs and goals for therapy. Once we know where you are trying to go, I may use a variety of tactics to support you in this process. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy may be helpful with difficult symptoms of depression or anxiety. If you notice a pattern of holding yourself back when on the cusp of achieving major successes, we can explore in-depth what might feel dangerous about succeeding. I tailor my approach to serve each client’s goal for themselves in that moment. Psychological suffering – and well-being for that matter – is born from beliefs about who we are, what we deserve, and who we’re responsible for. For example, a belief that one does not deserve success can lead to self-defeating ways of living. But beliefs are not facts. Beliefs can be understood, questioned, and exchanged for more empowering beliefs over time. I help clients engage in this process of change. In the course of therapy they often feel more entitled to acknowledge their strengths, get what they need in relationships, and believe in themselves. Symptoms of anxiety, substance abuse, and depression typically go away too. I electronically collect feedback data from my clients to make sure that therapy is working and that they feel like they are getting what they came to me to get. When appropriate I will check in with clients to course-correct so that we are meeting their needs. This approach puts my client’s experience at the center of the therapeutic work and helps ensure we are making the progress they deserve. Successful therapy looks different for each client but always involves the reduction of symptoms – whether anxiety, depression, substance abuse or post-traumatic states. A client’s goal for therapy is often intertwined with symptoms. For instance, some highly anxious individuals find it dangerous to disagree with loved ones because they have learned it threatens the other person’s goodwill towards them. Successful therapy for this person might mean gradually feeling safe and understood in the therapy to be able to state his/her point of view without worry that it will push needed others away. When a client reaches this point, their symptoms of anxiety are radically diminished.
I should confess to being a psychotherapy ‘geek’. I love this profession. Sometimes people will ask me if I get tired of listening to people’s problems all day and I am always surprised by this question. I consider it a great privilege to learn the stories of people who come to my office and to be able to helpfully connect with what they are going through. I am usually reading several psychology books or academic journal articles at any given time and have a laundry list of therapy-related projects or activities that I am pursuing. I feel so lucky to be able to spend my time talking with colleagues, conducting research, and thinking deeply about the best way to help others relieve their psychological pain.
Psychotherapy has always seemed like important and fascinating work to me. Even as an adolescent, I thought it was pretty cool that therapists helped people by understanding and connecting to them. I followed this passion through undergraduate studies and straight into graduate school for clinical psychology. In the years since, I have added to this academic training with life experience that informs my work as a therapist in equal measure.
I provide a safe and understanding therapeutic setting where you get to fully be yourself - whatever that looks like for you. I am trained in a type of depth-oriented psychotherapy that tries to understand your conscious and unconscious goals for therapy and do whatever it takes to help you reach them. The result is that my clients usually feel like they are now free to do and be the things they've always wanted to do or be. In addition, therapy feels like being added-to rather than having someone play "gotcha". Lastly, I make use of my training in data science to use electronic measurement of your progress to make sure we are on the right track and making the progress you deserve.
