I have been a licensed clinical psychotherapist since 1993. I've worked for Catholic Charities and the Jewish Board of Family and Children's Services and started private practice in 2013. I emphasize psychodynamic psychotherapy (I studied at the Psychoanalytic Institute of California), but shape my approach to each individual client and his or her needs and goals. My work has centered on mature adults with mental, emotional or physical disabilities, but I have treated clients of all ages and diagnoses. I develop an empathic connection with each client, bringing about a firm relationship and lasting change.

Clients often come to me with some version of “stuckness”—whether that is a couple or family having the same fight over and over, finding oneself repeatedly in the same kinds of relationships, or feeling lost and without direction. I believe that everyone’s feelings and behaviors, as confounding as they may be on the surface, are rooted in something real and valuable. Our feelings and patterns give us important data on what we’ve needed for protection in our lives, and through a close relationship with my clients, I can be an active partner in helping them discover how to no longer have that protection keep them from what they want.

My first focus when working with a client is to develop a trusting relationship. I believe this is necessary to be able to help them to work through the problems they may encounter in their lives. Clients come to me with problems which may include feelings of depression and sadness, dealing with conflict in relationships, understanding issues of identity, coping with grief and loss and making important life decisions such as in career, education and health.

Early in my career as a healthcare professional, I became aware of the mind-body connection and its effect on our emotional well-being. I view counseling as a person centered, creative process of healing, wellness and self-discovery. I strive to help my clients identify and capitalize on their strengths and to quiet down the inner critic, in order to find their own voice and meaning. I respect cultural and spiritual aspects of my clients' worldview and their unique background. Perhaps you are feeling stuck, discouraged or depleted. You are having a hard time coping with life's challenges or struggling with relationships.

Most of the clients I see have a history of trauma—physical or sexual abuse, neglect, or developmental trauma, which is the residue of dysfunctional caregiving. I believe strongly that people are naturally inclined to heal; our bodies and minds lean toward wholeness, even if it often feels like we can’t get there. While we go on with our day-to-day lives, acting as though everything is okay, the parts of us that were hurt—most often young parts—are still waiting and hoping for some kind of resolution to their pain. In therapy we look for those parts and take care of them; we nurture them and help them heal.

Feel Better Therapy was started by a therapists who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities where confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

My role as a therapist is to help you navigate life's challenges. You may be looking to gain a better understanding of yourself and the self-defeating patterns that prevent you from leading your most fulfilled life. Therapy is an opportunity to explore parts of yourself that might be causing distress, sadness, or worry. It allows you the ability to process parts of your identity that you may be looking to change, the permission to express emotions that might not feel safe to release otherwise, and the ability to recognize patterns in behavior and relationships over time.

As a clinical intern, I strive to create an affirming and empowering space for clients to explore their struggles and strengths. Sometimes the stress we experience goes beyond what we can handle and it becomes difficult to navigate our daily lives. There are also times when we don’t understand why we’re struggling and end up feeling ineffective and frustrated. However, we all have the capability to grow and make progress in our own ways. I have experience working with individuals struggling with life transitions, depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal urges.

Or, like a lot of us, your struggles show up in your closest relationships. Maybe you’ve dealt with the weight of other people’s expectations and find it hard to listen to yourself or trust your own voice. Or maybe you worry you’ll be misunderstood. Sometimes you wish someone would just tell you what to do, but that leaves you feeling constrained and inauthentic.

I focus on the needs of the individual to support their internal/external relational system in a healthy and clear manner to reach overarching goals.

For fun I love spending times with friends, exploring, traveling, relaxing with my dog (Otis), laying on the beach, listening to music, watching movies, cooking, snowboarding, yoga, blogging, meditation, drawing, and planting.
