Hello, I'm a licensed clinical psychologist working with adults in individual and couple's therapy. If you struggle with adjusting to a new phase of life, a new career or living in Southern California, you are not alone. Sometimes people can feel anxious or empty inside even though on the outside, their lives are looking fine. You've tried to hide those sad and lonely feelings from your friends and family, but feeling disconnected from those that you want to be close with is painful. You've noticed doing all kinds of things to not feel out of control.
My approach to psychotherapy is individualized and collaborative. I have a calm presence and I'm dedicated to understanding you as the complex human being you are. Facing yourself in psychotherapy dismantles old fears, so you can fully tap into your strengths and live the life you want.
My specialized post-graduate training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy enables me to guide you, so we can explore what's beneath your distress. It incorporates action-oriented changes, so it's not like the psychotherapy you find stereotyped on television where the therapist is silent besides an occasional nod.
