I help guide individuals toward improving the most important relationships in their lives — with themselves, family, partners, colleagues, and others.
If you are experiencing betrayal, doubt, confusion, sadness, anxiety, anger, loss, fear, or emotional pain, we will work together to explore solutions, options, and meaningful choices. Our work will focus on identifying values, strengthening expression, shifting limiting attitudes, and recognizing both negative influences and personal strengths that affect your life.
Together, we will explore differences in values, perspectives, backgrounds, and communication styles while examining
I specialize in helping individuals struggling with depression, anxiety and PTSD, anger issues, and addictions, and how these challenges affect your sense of self, relationships, life direction, and personal goals.
I work with both the individual and the larger systems they live within — including family, partners, and work environments.
I work intuitively, drawing on my training, education, and clinical experience. I am a thoughtful listener who approaches each client with respect and sensitivity to their cultural background, personal history, and life experiences.
My work with nonprofit organizations has allowed me to serve a diverse cross-section of individuals and families across LA.
