Therapists in University Town Center, Irvine, CA

Hello and welcome! I work from a strengths-based perspective, helping you to recognize your strengths and achieve your goals in a thoughtful and supportive way. Overcoming life’s stressors and challenges becomes an opportunity for the transformation of a lifetime. As one begins their therapeutic journey by looking within, ameliorating the traumas and wounds of their past, and identifying their inner strength and resiliency, the beauty of one’s true authentic self emerges. It is then that lifelong peace and stability are found, and life begins anew.

Are you struggling with relationship issues, either with yourself or others? I have helped many couples and individuals learn how to turn conflict and confusion into clarity and compassion. Individual Sessions are focused on enhancing strengths to meet current challenges. Many of my clients benefit from processing their thoughts, and gaining support through validation. Couples sessions are designed to generate an understanding of the viewpoint of the partner.

Are you unsatisfied with one or more areas of your life? I partner with my clients to empower them to make the changes necessary to bring their realities in line with the lives they truly want. In this way, I collaborate with each individual, couple, and family with whom I work to craft their own individualized success plans. To accomplish this, I draw upon years of experience, as well as a very strong foundation of training in a range of techniques and strategies. Perhaps equally important are the personal qualities that I bring, which include intelligence, genuineness, compassion, and a commitment to the highest standards.

Welcome to my practice. I have about 15 years of clinical experience and have been featured on NBC/KCAL/HLN as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

I treat psychological difficulties with a compassionate, yet results-oriented approach. When someone suffers from a medical disorder, a comprehensive assessment of the problem is required in order to obtain an accurate diagnosis. If the diagnosis is incorrect, treatment will repeatedly fail. As a diagnostician, my focus is to treat people, many of whom had been non-responsive to previous psychological / medical treatment, in this same way. Only with a correct diagnosis will treatment be effective. Once determined, goals discussed, a treatment plan in place, the therapy begins. With time and work, individuals grow to experience enhanced emotional health along with interpersonal and professional contentment.

[*A few slots opened up for a limited time] Are you looking to become a better, happier, and healthier person? Are you hoping to gain a deeper understanding and love for yourself and others?

It may sound a little bit scary and challenging, but together, we can do it. You will fully be authentic to yourself and experience real joy in your life.

I do believe each person and family has unique resources to activate healing processes. Brief Therapy requires a highly collaborative approach between therapist and clients, and focuses on practical solutions and clear communication. Brief Therapy offers a maximum of 10 sessions but usually don't need that many to promote change in the problem that is presented. I work with individuals, couples and families with a variety of problems: marital conflict and affairs, depression and anxiety, children and adolescent problems, addiction, eating disorders, stress and work related problems. I also provide online/Skype therapy if you needed.

People often come to therapy because they are suffering from some psychological difficulties. They want to get rid of depression, anxiety or any other psychological problems that have made life unbearable. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and certified Jungian analyst with more than 18 years of clinical experience. I will create a safe space for my clients to work through their problems. Therapy from depth perspective can create an opportunity for personal growth. Sometimes in the depth of our depression or anxieties we can find the most important answers to our soul searching.
