Late life is often a dynamic time and one of transition. For many older adults, it is fraught with illness, loss and emotional and physical challenge. But it can also be a time of enormous potential. With fewer obligations, long time personal goals can finally be realized and difficult family relationships repaired and healed. Evidence suggests that it's possible to make change at any stage of life. Together through the collaborative process of psychotherapy, we will work towards your goals using an integrated approach that includes psychodynamic, cognitive, behavioral, and solution focused strategies.

I work with clients who are motivated to find harmony within themselves, in their relationships, and in their lives. I specialize in providing psychotherapy for issues including anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, depression, body image, burnout, and relationship conflict. I work with adults, adolescents, and couples, and I provide parent/family coaching. My style is curious, warm, direct, and experiential. We will work together as you develop insight and self-acceptance, and you will gain skills to use outside of sessions as we focus on your short and long-term goals.

I recognize the decision to begin or return to therapy can be rather challenging. For many of us, we avoid processing pain or confronting issues until a crisis arises, feelings become too unbearable, or life seems unmanageable. Therapy requires courage, strength, and trust in yourself & in your therapist. As such, regardless of where you are in your process, I will meet you there. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount, symptoms are adaptations, and while change can be difficult, it is more than possible.

Most of us come to a point in our lives where we are either misunderstood or need to regain our balance and inner strength. Artemis Art & Therapy provides a safe and nurturing environment to promote and support emotional and mental well-being for teens and adults. Join us to regain balance and control.

Welcome! I specialize in treating ADHD and anxiety among adults living in California and New York. Individuals in my practice with ADHD tend to struggle with feeling overwhelmed at work, procrastinating, feeling like they are not functioning like an "adult," partners getting fed up with them, trouble regulating emotions, losing things, struggling to get to sleep on time or maintain exercise goals, and significant shame.

My philosophy is to meet you, the client, where you are so that we can work together to help you to gain insight, self awareness and strength. We may look at patterns that have hindered you from achieving the success you desire in personal, family or work relationships. We will help you to find ways to change those patterns so that you are more comfortable with yourself and the choices that you make now. We will do all of this collaboratively and at a pace that is comfortable for you. I look forward to working with you!

Hi everyone! I am passionate about guiding children, adolescents, and young adults on their journey toward well-being. In cultivating a warm and collaborative environment, I facilitate a process where clients explore personal and relational dynamics, in order to fulfill themselves in their individual and relational lives. Rejecting a one-size-fits-all approach, I acknowledge the uniqueness of each client in treatment planning.

In my private practice, I counsel individuals, adolescents, adults and couples, focused on anxiety, depression and relationship issues. One of my areas of focus is baby boomers contemplating retirement, transitioning into retirement and/or second careers. This population is often managing the needs of an elderly parent(s) and simultaneously, their own adult children. These challenges converge with our own issues of aging, such as mid-life crisis, changes in our health and viability and our mortality. I'm currently counseling several couples.

Do you feel stressed out, anxious or depressed? Children have the same emotions like us but they usually don't know how to talk about it or seek help on their own. However, the way they behave at home or school can be the clue for us. If you sense they are having some problems and they are struggling to cope with, it might be best to have them talk to someone with experience in getting children to communicate about what's affecting them.

My goal is to provide you a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space to explore the issues you are struggling with and create a plan on how we can resolve those issues together so you can live your best life. I take a holistic, client-centered, culturally sensitive, and trauma informed approach to ensure I am meeting your specific needs. I provide supportive and evidenced based practices to my clients and have worked with both adolescents and adults, utilizing various modalities.

When you are feeling depressed or anxious, you have a real reason to want to be heard. You communicate through words and body language. A child communicates through play and art. Whichever way you communicate, I am dedicated to hear what you have to say and gain a real understanding of what is going on. Together, we can explore your uniqueness and find strength in that. Whether it is a family issue or a personal one, taking care of yourself is a priority. I believe that the basic foundation of therapy is a good relationship between therapist and client.

I work with teens and adults virtually in California, or in person in Los Angeles. Every day I meet people who feel stuck in their lives and behaviors yet struggle to take the necessary steps toward facing their challenges and meeting their potential. Whether you struggle with addiction, depression, anxiety, social factors, trauma, grief, childhood experience, ADHD/learning challenges, hopelessness, LGBTQ+, sexuality, and/or gender-related topics, I am here to help you clear the roadblocks between you and the best version of yourself.

Other areas of treatment in my practice include, but are not limited to, depression and/or anxiety, relationship issues, and self-esteem work. An additional area of specialty is working with adolescent/teens who have been victims of bullying. I am a current clinical/professional member of IAEDP, NEDA, CAMFT and AAMFT.

Relationships are one of the most meaningful and rewarding elements of our lives. Whether it’s a relationship with a spouse, partner, friends, a parent or child, a relationship to work or money, or the relationship you have with yourself-- relationships affect us every minute of every day. But, the ability to cultivate them into healthy and loving creations is not innate. Most of us have experienced the pain that comes when relationships are toxic and unfulfilled. This pain comes in many forms: anxiety, sadness, guilt or shame, low self-esteem, loneliness, financial problems, addiction, etc. But, it doesn’t have to be that way.
