"Most everyone experiences some Problems of Living during the course of his or her life. These can manifest as common psychological symptoms or as difficulties in relationship or work. By attending to the contributions that both past experiences and present circumstances make, I work to liberate effort and energy caught in these problems, making that very energy available for the pursuit of wishes and some measure of joy."

"We are all making art out of our circumstances. If you struggle to meet expectations that have been set for you, you may wonder if you're good enough. If you meet those markers but feel like something is missing, you may wonder what went wrong. A more joyful life is possible. The things that make you different can be the things that make you wonderful. Ways you have learned to cope can be sources of creativity and growth. Through therapy, you can learn to appreciate where you come from while becoming who you really are."

"We will work in a confidential space, where we thoughtfully,carefully, and intelligently reflect on your emotional life. We can gently explore the origins of your feelings and work through how they show themselves. Our work will be focused in the here and now: by exploring who you are right now, change in your outlook or actions becomes possible. Generally, I use ideas firmly grounded in psychoanalytic theory and technique that are informed by my personal practice of Zen meditation of over ten years. Paying attention to what you do and how you feel can reveal the source of discomfort."

"Personal growth and overcoming emotional and mental challenges can feel like immovable obstacles. These obstacles may be related to work, family, intimate relationships, societal and cultural pressures, discrimination or trauma. The challenges can cause several symptoms like anxiety, sadness, isolation, anger, defensiveness or low self-esteem. Unfortunately, not everyone was afforded the opportunity to learn healthy coping skills to manage these symptoms, nor how to recognize them. Furthermore, discussing personal challenges may have been forbidden or discouraged, especially outside of the home."

"You might find yourself feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by the realization that you've been feeling stuck in the same patterns for years or back at the low same point after a period of feeling better. You want so desperately to thrive and nothing seems to work, or it only works for a moment. I work with individuals and couples to address these repetitions that get in the way of feeling the satisfaction and peace we all crave. I help to address a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, life transitions and self-esteem."

"Our collective human experience can be so similar, yet so diverse. Intricate details, such as culture(s), environment(s), beliefs, values, and experiences, shape how we conceptualize, understand and live this world. As many of us already know, life sometimes do not go the way we planned. We can experience hardships, struggles, and traumas, that we never imagined for ourselves. In these times of confusion, we can lose perspective of who we are, our purpose, and what we stand for. Instead of being self-critical or instilling blame on others, I think it is crucial to have a grounded understanding of self to help navigate the turbulence"

"In this tumultuous political climate, the most powerful thing you can do is to love yourself. Maybe you’re having problems at work or in your relationships. Maybe you’re struggling with anxiety or depression. And beneath all of those very human challenges lurks the acute sense that everything is falling apart. The key to overcoming this is to build a layer of insulation around yourself that helps you tune into your own needs. This means taking time to recharge your batteries. Loving yourself helps you refuel and refocus so you can tune into your inner voice and make choices that support and empower you."

"Asking for help is vulnerable, but it is also an act of courage. Dedicating time to prioritize self-exploration and growth is an incredible gift to yourself. I believe in a shame-free, co-created space where warmth, empathy and humor are encouraged. We will use authenticity & curiosity to examine the parts of your life that don't align with your vision for yourself. By connecting with yourself in the present moment, paying attention to the stories and thoughts in your mind, and listening to your body, you will begin to heal from pain and shame."

"Life today is complex and sometimes small shifts in perspective can make big differences. Operating from a place that takes into account the many and often competing beliefs and patterns that make you unique is where we start. I like to address what's not working and also spark excitement about what's possible."

"Whether you're seeking to make some changes or simply want extra support to get through a difficult time in your life, consider emailing or calling me for a free consultation."

"Entering psychotherapy can bring up a range of emotions, from anxiety to relief. Through it all, a strong connection between an individual and his or her therapist is key to a successful and rewarding therapeutic process. I know the importance of providing a safe environment in which individuals can explore the past and plan for the future while remaining grounded in, and learning to enjoy, the present."

"Sometimes we have life experiences or are told stories about our identities that convince us that we are not worthy. We come to believe we are too different or not good enough. Changing these beliefs can be overwhelming. You don’t have to do it alone. You deserve a better quality of life and strong, supportive relationships. I welcome people who feel “othere-ed.” "

"I believe that there is nothing inherently "wrong" with you; the fact that you can be going through a difficult or uncertain time and still show up to work or school (or even to breakfast, some days) is, to me, proof of the fact that you are coping. But if you're not comfortable with the way you're coping right now, know that this doesn't have to be set in stone. If there are changes you want to make to how you understand yourself, relate to others, or navigate your world, we can work through those together."

"I work with you to find peace and meaning in your life. It might not be easy, but I believe it's possible for everyone. These days, especially here in Los Angeles, society ignores the vital role relationships and emotions play in our daily choices. We pretend that people are rational machines that just "process input" much like a really fancy computer, and that emotions and relationships should be ignored when they get in the way. Instead, I work with you to better understand your role in the larger tapestry and feel comfortable within it."

"The Baby Boomers, those Americans born between 1946 and 1964, constitute about 30% of the US population, and are living significantly longer lives than any past generation did. How you prepare for your middle and late adulthood determines the conclusion and quite possibly the meaning of your life. I can help you develop a personal, individualized roadmap to happiness, fulfillment and especially, meaning."
