I help people develop the tools and insight needed to achieve symptom relief and create a life that is more meaningful and fulfilling in the long-term. With over 25 years experience and exceptional credentials, my approach is warm, compassionate, practical, and collaborative. Therapy with me includes both understanding how your history may be informing the challenges bringing you to treatment (the "why?"), and learning skills (the "what now?") to improve your situation. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, the trauma resiliency model, interpersonal psychotherapy and psychodynamic theory.
Areas of specialization include: eating disorders, mood & anxiety disorders, relationships & sexuality, trauma, and medical psychology. I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and communities, and in various settings from private practice, to treatment centers, to prestigious clinical research institutions and hospitals (UBC, UCLA, USC, UCSD).
I see patients in person in my office in Burbank as well as remotely throughout California. Please visit my website for more information about my practice and approach; and call or email so that we can discuss whether I am the right fit for what you need. I firmly believe that life can be better and that you are taking the first step by reaching out!

My treatments draw heavily on cognitive behavioral therapy, meaning we will pay a lot of attention to the ways in which thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. I often incorporate mindfulness and relaxation skills, use take-home assignments for practice and support in between sessions, and help patients break down complex situation into more manageable problems.
