Marina Del Rey, CA 90292
The relationship we have with ourselves is the root to our well-being and is often impacted by early traumatic experiences that affect the way we move in the world and relate to others. I work with people dealing with attachment related trauma that continues to impact their life. When people experience disruptions in attachment relationships it can make it difficult to live a fulfilling life that is not weighed down by a feeling of emptiness or thoughts of unworthiness. These unresolved traumas tend to show up in our life in the form of depression, anxiety, addictions and somatic issues.

Life's shadows and waves come in many different forms. You might try to run, fight, avoid, or make it make sense to find relief and stability. You may have found ways to cope and survive that worked for you in the past but don't anymore. Waves might come in the form of emotional overwhelm, fear of abandonment or rejection, toxic shame or guilt, chronic pain or grief, or debilitating anxiety that keeps you from joy and rest. You may understand the "why," but your nervous system still responds in a way that prevents you from living the life you deserve. You want to feel secure and worthy in your mind and body from the inside out.

Your daughter threatened to run away again. And you’re not sure if it was frustration, anger, or just exhaustion, but you cringed as “go ahead, live under a bridge, I don't care" escaped your lips. Why did I say that?! Now you’re wracked with guilt. You never thought you’d be THAT parent. The one with the kid who fights with siblings and classmates, is on academic probation and never listens to what she’s told. You remember how sweet, doting, and polite she was as a little girl. So how did that perfect child turn into this?! You feel like you’re failing her as a parent, but you just don’t know how to help.

Another fight – more shouting, stomping, and slamming doors. You don’t get it. Your parents say they want you to act like an adult, but then they treat you like a child. Make it make sense! If only they understood what you’re going through. The pressure comes from all sides – parents, teachers, social media, and friends. It’s like everyone has something to criticize you for; “Your grades aren’t good enough,” “You’ll never get into college,” “You’re not as pretty as the other girls.” Meanwhile, you’re trying your best, and their negativity just makes you feel more discouraged. You wish there were someone to help you through this.

Your teenager told you to shut up, but you let it go. There's no energy for another fight. Besides, they're devastating and upset the whole family. They go from sadness to a fireball of anger. Your eardrums rattle at the sound of the door slamming. You don't know which version of them you'll get, so you tip-toe on eggshells to keep the peace. You're held hostage by your teen’s behavior; it's exhausting. Something more than the "terrible teens" is happening here. Worry and guilt prick at your heart. Despite your best efforts, their behavior is getting worse. This isn't the life you imagined. You're desperate for a harmonious home.

I support families, couples, and individuals. Whatever the problem, challenge, trauma or pain, the power to change exists within you and your family. I believe that an effective therapist's job is to support a "shift," not to create it for you. Together, we can make progress toward your goals and desires. I am also trained and certified in hypnotherapy.
