They have held themselves together just well enough for years, but then they reach a tipping point and know they need the help of an expert. Through individual therapy, couples therapy or group therapy, we help them better understand themselves and how to get what they need out of life.

Anger, shame, anxiety, depression, and perfectionism are emotions and traits that can be caused by trauma. Unresolved trauma can negatively affect our current relationships and family dynamics. My goal as a therapist is to collaborate with you in order to manage trauma-related symptoms and reach a more meaningful state. I utilize a client-centered approach in order to create a safe space for my clients to process unresolved feelings/reactions. Forming a meaningful connection allows us to create a space that welcomes vulnerability, and the therapeutic relationship is just as important as the therapeutic modality.

Having experienced various challenges related to chronic pain, OCD, anxiety and depression, I enjoy working with people who have also experienced these issues and are looking for some guidance and support from someone who better understands what they are going through. Coping with a mental illness can feel extremely isolating and hopeless; I aim to create a safe space where clients can share their feelings and hardships without fear of judgment, and to help them develop the skills needed to overcome the obstacles they are facing. Note: I now do in-person hiking sessions in Los Feliz and elsewhere as well as on the basketball court!

I really enjoy working with people who can freely speak their minds, and share about their childhoods and current lives. I have found that being practical, understanding, and honest while utilizing Solution-focused therapy, Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing give people results to their challenges. It also gives them an opportunity to look at what they have the ability to change, and what they do not. These practices help people move forward and accept themselves, for who they are, and all of the gifts they have been given in this life.

Difficult conversations are my specialty. I offer a compassionate and accepting space for my clients to explore the stress and struggles that keep them from becoming who they want to be. The adolescents and young adults I work with often come to me feeling stuck and unsure what move to make next. By connecting to your desires, while coping with your fears, you can learn to put yourself first and to live your life for you. You can count on me to shine a light on even the littlest of wins while we explore new ways of navigating the world.

What type of Los Angeles mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.

If you are unsure about choosing the right therapist or psychologist, it might be useful to first learn more about therapy types and modalities.

How to find a therapist or counselor in Los Angeles?
When looking to find a therapist, start by considering training and credentials. Studies also indicate that the therapeutic alliance, or the relationship the client develops with the therapist, is an important factor in their ability to work together to achieve the client’s goals.

What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way.’ Each method of therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues. Finding a psychologist or therapist who is a good fit for you is the most important step to discovering what type of therapy, or combination of therapeutic approaches, will meet your individual needs. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.

How to use my insurance?
Understanding cost and insurance coverage is an important concern for many people. With some basic research and conversations with prospective therapists, you should be able to have a good understanding of the best way to afford therapy.
