Let's Connect (213) 682-3287
Nurturing, strength-based and compassionate, I am an active and directive participant in my clients' work- whether working with individuals or with a couple . We together will identify what brings you to treatment, be it depression, anxiety, PTSD, marital distress, or simply discomfort. We will articulate where in your life you are struggling- interpersonally, at work, within your family system or in your marriage, and develop goals to relieve that distress. It can be challenging to choose to participate in therapy, and I work to create a safe environment so we can engage and address the issues that are challenging you.
I have worked with clients of all types and from all backgrounds, including focused work with couples, with families, and with individuals who have experienced trauma. My work with clients has addressed a range of issues such as depression, anxiety, self-mutilation, trauma, sexual acting out, substance abuse, and truancy.
I am trained in EMDR which can be transformative in treating trauma, as well as many other areas of struggle. I am also Level II certified in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I have been trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy, which is proven to be one of the most effective treatment methods for couples therapy. I am licensed in NY and California.
