Life can be extremely challenging. In response, we develop coping mechanisms that work in the moment, but that ultimately hinder our ability to connect with ourselves and others in a healthy way. With my clients, we identify destructive/productive learned behaviors. We practice new ways of interacting and work through past and present struggles, regaining the ability to feel calm, love, and joy! Some of the issues I treat are anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, addiction, and narcissism (stemming from trauma). I work with adults and couples in various stages of life (marriage, new parents, divorce, midlife, etc.).

As someone who has navigated trauma and complex PTSD, I hold deep respect for the persistence it takes to keep reaching for authenticity when hope feels distant. I'm drawn to working with creatives and highly sensitive individuals and couples who long for relationships and self-expression that feel honest. As a practitioner of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I also am interested in helping those connect with their bodies and heal body dysmorphia. In the midst of depression, anxiety, or grief, I believe growth and joy become possible when we meet our inner parts with compassion and move at the pace of their permission.

I believe therapy has the power to transform people's lives and improve their relationships. My approach is collaborative and relational. In therapy, I work with clients to develop concrete goals and tools to increase confidence in themselves and in their relationships. I also assist clients in processing how past experiences may contribute to insecurities, unhelpful patterns in relationships, and professional dissatisfaction. Throughout the therapy process I help empower clients to change their life narratives by expressing and pursuing what they want in their lives.

As Lao Tzu beautifully put it, "when you touch one thing with deep awareness, you touch everything." In my work with clients, I bring intuition, attunement, and thoughtfulness to the space, along with empathy, challenge, and a sense of humor. In order to assist my clients in breaking unwanted patterns, shifting narratives, and deepening intimacy with the self and others, I am both compassionate and straightforward. I am trained in Attachment Based EMDR, ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Therapy), EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, mindfulness, somatic and psychodynamic based therapies.

Therapy is an incredible way to meet the very human need to feel understood. While you’ve made it through difficult situations alone, it's an especially healing process to do so with someone else. I'm committed to helping individuals overcome periods of stagnation. I borrow from a variety of modalities and actively collaborate with you to either bring up solutions or simply ask questions that work towards sustained, meaningful self-awareness and growth. My goal is to create a space where you can express what's important and genuine. Together, we'll bring into focus associations & patterns and how they limit and/or enrich your life.

Are you a couple, individual or family in need of new coping skills? Through somatic, body-centered awareness, our work together can help you to explore and understand your sensations, emotions, thoughts and actions so that you can have more authentic experiences of connection, intimacy, and joy. I work with individuals, couples and families with the following issues: Anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and intimacy. In my practice, I prioritize play and pleasure over perfection and precision.

Integrate /ˈin(t)əˌɡrāt/: to become whole Modern day life is not for the faint of heart. Thinking clearly and finding sustainable peace and harmony often seems impossible. This often leads to anxiety, depression, decreased self worth, increased self criticism, loneliness and addiction and feeling stuck. Many times we are left with a feeling of being fragmented and broken and needing to be “fixed”. At Integrate, we have the unwavering belief that we are already whole. We believe that every person has profound “inner healing intelligence” that can be cultivated to help a person heal, thrive and connect.

My client-centered approach to therapy places my clients at the forefront of their own healing journey as I guide and support each one of them. I believe that individuals are the experts of their lives and that my role is to provide a safe and nurturing space for growth. My goal is to assist in identifying strengths and inherent characteristics to fuel resiliency in each client. Clients are coached to understand that decisions made, relationships entered into, and responses to triggers are integral in the healing process by recognizing that trauma in its many forms impacts engagement in repetitive and/or negative behaviors.

Looking for a therapist who truly gets you—someone sex-positive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, poly and kink-savvy, who also understands the complexities and nuances of OCD? If you’re tired of feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in the same old thought loops, you’re not alone. It’s time to embrace the parts of your identity you’ve been hesitant to explore because of what others might think and challenge those anxious thoughts. You’re ready for change, and you deserve a supportive, non-judgmental space to make it happen.

Reaching out for help when you were taught it’s safer to handle things alone for fear of shame, anger, or being forgotten is a profound act of courage. You deserve a big exhale.
Being an adult is hard enough on its own — adding the pressures of creative work, daily responsibilities, family confusion, and the effort to be a good person can feel overwhelming even on the best of days. I work with people who have experienced trauma, emotional neglect or abuse, struggle with persistent anxiety and performance- related fears, and are confronting existential questions about identity and life’s meaning.

I'm an LMFT in Los Angeles who specializes in ADHD, autism, and AuDHD in teens, young adults, and men. I also work with late-diagnosed people starting to make sense of why life has always felt harder than it should. Either way, you’re probably functioning at a cost no one sees. That effort accumulates into burnout and relentless self-criticism. If constantly analyzing the patterns was enough to change them, you'd have moved on by now. I specifically help overwhelmed and stuck clients whose neurodivergence and shame are entangled in ways standard therapy tends to miss.

More people struggle with functioning daily than would like to admit it. It can also feel very isolating and hopeless at times. No matter who you are, it can be important to talk to someone who can help with processing your experiences. If you are motivated for change and looking for someone to keep you accountable, you have come to the right place.

You've built your life around doing things well, and for a long time, it worked. But lately the drive that used to push you forward just feels like pressure you can't escape. You feel tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. You keep going anyway, because slowing down feels irresponsible or selfish. Somewhere along the way, achievement stopped feeling like enough. Maybe this extends into the way you feel about your body or food. My years in competitive dance and high-pressure careers in advertising and tech taught me exactly how this happens, how worth gets wired to output, and how hard it is to unlearn.
