You’re tired of just surviving. Do you feel anxious, depressed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer work for you? Maybe you’re carrying pain you haven’t fully named, processed, or healed. You’re not looking for a quick fix. You want meaningful change that lasts. I work with adults using a holistic, trauma-informed approach that integrates mind-body work with practical tools and meets you where you are. I support clients in 12-step recovery as well as those seeking alternative, individualized approaches to addiction healing. Telehealth is available across California and Nevada, with walk therapy in Beverly Hills.
My approach is direct, relational, and action-oriented. Therapy with me includes practical tools, skill-building, and deeper exploration, while also making room for reflection on the patterns shaping your life. I offer perspective, challenge when needed, and help you turn insight into meaningful changes in how you cope, relate, and move through the world.
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’ve been carrying it alone. Wherever you are in your process, you’re welcome here. You don’t need perfect words or a clear plan, just a willingness to begin. If something in you is ready for change, reach out, and we’ll explore what healing could look like for you.

Treatment for addiction, complex trauma, and anxiety may involve understanding triggers, reducing shame, building emotional regulation, strengthening boundaries, and changing patterns that no longer serve you. Clients often feel more grounded, more self-aware, and better able to handle stress and relationships.

Evidence-based care—CBT, ACT, DBT skills, MI, somatic, and trauma-focused work—but the experience matters most: clear goals, practical tools, and brief practice between sessions so change shows up in daily life. Effective for depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. I support both 12-step and non-12-step recovery.
