I help people reconnect with themselves and the people they love—especially when life starts to feel overwhelming or out of balance. My clients are individuals who shows up for everyone but themselves. They are often the caregivers, the dependable ones, the emotionally attuned partners or parents who carry a quiet weight of exhaustion, resentment, or self-doubt. On the outside, they appear “fine”—high-functioning, responsible, perhaps even admired. But internally, they’re overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure of who they are beyond their roles.

I help creative adults, couples, and adult families overcome past trauma and foster healthy relationships. As human beings, something unique within us strives for growth, healing, and connection. A strong therapeutic relationship can foster greater compassion, insight, and joy that enhances our quality of life. At times, we may struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, addiction, trauma, creative struggles, or a lack of purpose. Psychotherapy can be a safe and brave space to better know ourselves and improve our connection to those we love and the greater world.

Young adulthood can be a collision of who you are and who you are becoming. You may be navigating sexuality, faith, family roles, loneliness or the pressure to “get it right,” all while trying to build a life that feels authentic and grounded. Sometimes being a young adult feels like simple “survival.”

You always say "I'm fine"... even though deep down, you feel overwhelmed and anxious. You're scared to reach out for help, worried that you're broken or "crazy." Though your childhood was great and things seem fine on paper, it feels like a dark cloud is hanging over you. You wonder, "Why can't I just be happy?" Something meaningful in your life is not working. You want to feel happier, calmer, and more in control. I help adults, adolescents, families, and couples in Pasadena who feel this way — including through ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) and psychedelic integration therapy.

You may feel stuck in a relationship, your career, or life in general. Perhaps you are dealing with a difficult life transition such as a job or career change, divorce or bereavement, or experiencing anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. I'd like to help you meet the challenge and make the changes you are looking for. I work with individuals, couples and families as they learn to cultivate healthy relationships and manage the stresses of modern-day life. Having raised a family while practicing law as a partner in a busy law firm, I have experienced the stress and trade-offs of maintaining a work, family, and personal life.

My clinical experience has focused primarily on helping individuals in the adolescent to young adult age, which is a critical phase of development, addressing issues around identity formation and family conflict. Diagnoses and presenting problems most prevalent for this age include major depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, oppositional defiance, ADHD, schizophrenia, self-harming/high risk behaviors (cutting, eating disorders, and substance use) and suicidal thoughts & behaviors. My work with this particular age population often includes helping the family system in areas such as conflict resolution, family communication patterns and repair in attachment & connection.

I am most helpful to mid-life women (and their partners when that's appropriate). I help them pick a good partner, create sound relationships, take good care of themselves and ultimately get more of what feeds their soul. I believe it begins with a solid understanding of oneself, how you experience your life, and then re-forming your relationships to be more satisfying.

Having a transgender or gender nonbinary child is a wonderful gift, but it comes with a unique journey for both child and parent. Support is not only essential, but a gem of the journey! Possibly your child has expressed feeling that they are another gender and you are unsure about what to do next. Maybe your child is already living as their authentic gender, but they are showing signs of insecurity or distress around their body. Or possibly, puberty is approaching, and your child’s doctor has recommended therapy as they prepare for puberty suppression. I seek to provide guidance and support through stretches such as these.

I believe: Perspective, courage and determination can transform one’s life. Confidence comes with self acceptance. Suffering is over rated.
