I am a licensed MFT with offices in Santa Monica and Ojai. For the past twenty + years I have been working as a therapist with adolescents, adults and families. I am also a clinical supervisor to interns in my private practice, and I provide psychotherapy for therapists in training. My work as a therapist focuses on relationships of all kinds. For my clients, I hope to be an agent of positive change by working with them towards an understanding of the dynamics that keep them from moving forward and then by mentoring them to co-create bigger lives for themselves.

I am a LCSW with over 15 years of experience helping adults transform suffering and anxiety into strength, wisdom, and joy.
What you seek is also seeking you" - Rumi In a world that seems to be ever more divided, unsafe, and chaotic, it can sometimes feel hard to believe that the peace and fulfillment you want can be found. And yet you are worthy of it. We have the right and power to alchemize suffering into strength, joy, wisdom, and peace. Let therapy unlock the wisdom your heart holds for finding the sense of self, relationships, and life you long for. The world is waiting for you. "Because you are alive, everything is possible." -Thich Nhat Hanh

I am honored to be a part of the California and Iowa communities. My client-centered, humanistic approach is a balance of compassion, empathy and open-mindedness. I am continually inspired by the shared experience of this healing space. I work with children as young as 3 years, families, adolescents, young and middle-aged adults, and the healthy aging population, who are willing to explore their experiences of change, grief, suffering, trauma, depression, anxiety, success, and growth. Hope and empowerment are a process of healing, recovery and integration. It is a collaborative experience where alternative ways of being occur.

I provide compassionate support for children, teens, young adults, individuals, and parents. Growing up can be so hard. So can being a grown-up! Especially as the world feels topsy-turvy. Sometimes we are quick to pathologize ourselves and our children. Learning to respond intentionally rather than react out of fear can be a game changer. In my practice I provide a strengths-based holistic approach to therapy, integrating approaches from Trauma focused CBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy.

I help children, adolescents, adults and families who are dealing with emotional pain due to anxiety, depression, stress, anger, grief and loss.
What makes therapy work is the relationship/connection between the therapist and client, as well as the skills and technical expertise the therapist brings to the table. I am supportive, caring and committed to being totally present, meeting people where they are right now, hearing them in their own terms. Relationships between individuals, couples and families have become so stressful in these crazy-making times. I see my job as helping clients untangle life's challenges and assisting them in getting in touch with their own inner resources.

I help adults suffering anxiety, depression, grief, sexual abuse, stress, insomnia, self-doubt, and stifling blocks of fear that prevent you from doing what you want to do.
I believe: our mind & body are completely intertwined; the possibilities within every human being are limitless; and you are not your symptoms. I do not believe in limits set by a diagnosis or label for you to identify yourself by, instead I help you find your true nature, your Self, & peace within the midst of difficulty, change, loss, and the holidays! I've been a psychologist for over 30 years, yet the way I help people today is entirely different now. I use mindfulness brain-based talk therapy, and visualizations, for an integrated approach to emotional/physical/mental wellness. We focus on your current self and life as a whole.
