Trauma can feel like a shadow that follows you everywhere. You try to move forward, but the past keeps pulling you back. It isn’t just the memories that bother you, it's the beliefs you hold because of the memories that leave you feeling helpless.

I offer in-person sessions on Wednesdays in DTLA, or virtual sessions Tuesday through Friday, morning to early evening.
Stuck? There are lots of reasons people get stuck. You're busy! Maybe you've tried to figure things out on your own and keep hitting a wall. Maybe there are family or generational patterns you're working against. Perhaps you and your partner love each other but keep having the same fights over and over again. Maybe there are some intimacy issues that you can't quite fix. I know that unresolved personal or relationship issues create heartache for everyone involved, and being stuck in them is frustrating and overwhelming. It doesn't have to stay that way, though.

I believe that healing happens in relationship and growth begins with simple curiosity. We grow in the direction that we inquire about, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Whether you're healing from trauma, managing anxiety or depression, navigating the complexities of ADHD, or transitioning into a new chapter of life, or simply seeking deeper connection in your relationships, the journey starts with fostering radical acceptance of where we are. Together, we will identify constraints and build on your strengths to allow your unique vitality and purpose to unfold.

People refer to therapy as a science or practice-but I have come to view it as an art in the most exquisite form. Therapy is about expressing and emoting, and finding value in the internal and external relationships we create. My education and clinical experience has verified the depth of this "art," revealing knowledge that can be gained, healing of old scars, and magic that can ensue when self-love occurs. I am a firm believer that therapy is not a requirement for healthy living, but similar to music and film, it can add intrigue, deepen relationships, and significantly enhance the quality of life.

I offer both online and in-person therapy sessions.
In our fast-paced world, we rarely pause to reflect, leaving many with unresolved emotions. Therapy offers a safe space to heal, free from judgment or the need for perfection. For an hour, you don’t have to carry everything alone—we’ll explore your inner world and work toward growth and peace.
As a Black therapist, I’m dedicated to supporting my community. Black and brown people face unique challenges that impact their mental health, and having a therapist who understands these realities matters. My goal is to create a space where marginalized individuals feel seen, heard, and supported.

I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL 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.

Most everyone experiences some Problems of Living during the course of his or her life. These can manifest as common psychological symptoms or as difficulties in relationship or work. By attending to the contributions that both past experiences and present circumstances make, I work to liberate effort and energy caught in these problems, making that very energy available for the pursuit of wishes and some measure of joy.

I believe that relationships, with others and with oneself, are essential to living an enjoyable life. Healthy relationships and self-knowledge can be the remedy to our distress and the key to our healing. My approach is collaborative- I do not expect you to enter my office and "fix" yourself, but rather to work alongside me to cultivate insight, deepen relationships, and develop a stronger sense of self. Often we walk through life being merely existing-my goal is to help you thrive by living a well-balanced and joyful life.
