"Feeling overwhelmed is no fun. Whether it is feelings of anxiety, confusion, loneliness, or maybe just feeling lost, it can seem as though you are the only one stuck on the path of life. My thoughts on therapy are to try to understand this path you are walking on. This understanding should be done without judgement or bias, but with an open mind and heart. By listening, we can get a better handle on your current feelings and how you got here. Therapy can be a fantastic bridge between where you have been and where you want to go."

"While 'regular therapy' focuses on the past and the emotional wounds that come with it, coaching focuses on goal setting and taking action, understanding our present and finding ways to create a brighter future. It's about changing old habits, developing new ones, embracing change and moving with ease towards a more fulfilling life. Hypnosis is a form of guided meditation that works with the subconscious, where our habits, memories and emotions are stored. Combining life coaching with hypnotherapy brings about the most beneficial results, engaging both, the conscious and subconscious, empowering people to achieve lasting, positive results and enhanced mental / emotional attitudes."

"I believe every person is unique and complex. As your therapist, I want to help you get the life that you want.

Together we can target problem areas and figure out how to use strengths to remove life's obstacles."

"Are you raising a child who's suffering from a physical or mental disability? Are you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or emotionally and physically exhausted? It's common for families and parents affected by a child with a disability to often become so overcome with feelings of stress, worry, frustration, sadness, and alienation that they neglect to take care of their marriage, social network, and own well being. Often times, a caretaker views personal neglect as a necessary sacrifice associated with raising a child. But if you don't take care of yourself, how can you take care of your family?"

"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!"

"I'm a licensed clinical psychologist who places greatest value in establishing an empathic, warm, & respectful environment (while modeling firm, healthy boundaries) for clients & their families. Over the last 7 years I've treated adults, children, teens, couples, families, & groups in a private practice setting. My strength-based, collaborative approach drawing on numerous techniques (CBT, DBT, Fam Systems, etc.) helps clients get the most from therapy & allows tailoring our work to your needs. When beneficial and appropriate, I work to foster a "team approach," encouraging good communication w/other members of a client's daily life (i.e. other practitioners/physicians, family, teachers, etc.)."

"I am passionate about helping couples reconnect. Sometimes couples can become disconnected and that can be very painful. Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy is a scientifically proven method that brings couples together in new ways that lead to long-lasting secure attachment.

You can escape your negative interactive cycle and create a new beautiful dance with your partner. I would like to help you get there! Please call me for a free consultation in Beverly Hills, Downey or Torrance."

"Most of us would like to change something about our lives. We feel stuck in bad relationships or unfulfilling careers. We are anxious or depressed. We want to thrive and succeed, we just don't quite know how to make it happen. Therapy is the path to help you access the resources you already have inside yourself. Together we will find ways to discover your strengths, and then help you use those strengths to create positive, lasting change in your life."

Psychotherapy is a very individualized and empowering process that helps us gain insight by becoming more conscious of our underlying thoughts and feelings that drive our behaviors and life patterns, thus setting the stage for positive change and growth."

"An ideal client for my treatment mode would be someone who is either motivated for refinement of spirit, or would possess enough intelligence and wisdom to be able to gain enough insight into the nature of their condition so that they would embrace expert intervention with a degree of trust in harmony with adequate judgment into the need for treatment. He or she may engage in therapy alone, but where family history of emotional challenges exist, they would consider family therapy if all parties consent."

"Most people seek a therapist when they feel stuck in some way. My goal is to help you find the tools and resources to get answers. Hopefully, with answers, come solutions.
