Therapy for adults, adolescents, and children.
I offer a discreet, private setting in Bel Air, complete with secure garage parking and a dedicated private entrance—ideal for clients who value elevated confidentiality and comfort.
With over 13 years of clinical experience and advanced training through UCLA Health, I provide a highly personalized approach to therapeutic work, using evidence based practices along with unique, creative and psychodynamic models.
My work is grounded in premier evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), allowing for a seamless blend of clinical excellence and a highly tailored, therapeutic experience.
Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, and you do not have to face them alone. I provide a private, supportive space where we can work through difficulties with care, compassion, and discretion. Drawing on my clinical expertise and genuine understanding, I am committed to helping you move forward with greater confidence, strength, and emotional well-being.
