Therapists in City Center, Glendale, CA

Counseling doesn't have to be scary. Throughout our lives we all experience difficult situations that need a second set of eyes and ears to offer a different perspective. Since friends and family are unable to be objective, that is where the counselor's role comes into play. Whether you are having family conflict, relationship issues with your significant other, or just need someone to talk to because everything just seems to be falling apart, I am here for you.

As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I have found that the type of therapy I provide allows opportunity for people to experience insight, hope, and change. While in treatment with me, clients will develop an understanding as to what has contributed to their style of thinking, behaviors, and decision making process. I assist my clients in feeling comfortable in their own skin and helping them identify their strengths. Upon having an awareness of what strengths are within you, my goal will be to help you utilize these strengths towards overcoming the challenges and issues in your lives.

Are past traumatic experiences, being an adult child of a dysfunctional home, incest survival experiences, addiction issues, phobia, panic, anxiety, C-PTSD or depression affecting your success? Are distractions impacting your optimal performance abilities at work, in your intimate relationships, or in relationships with family members or with yourself? Are you surviving instead of thriving? I provide accelerated psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are challenged by performance loss and emotional unhappiness. Also offer Diagnosis evaluation for addiction, mood, personality, and adult Autism spectrum. HSP and Kink friendly.

My approach to working with individuals is meeting each person where they are and identifying goals. I do believe that change can occur with a good therapeutic relationship, a safe and non-judgmental environment that allows individuals to share. As a therapist, who has worked in community mental health, I understand that each person is unique.

If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I strive to help people uncover their strengths, while also learning how to adapt and adjust to difficult situations. I'm an interactive therapist who believes that the most effective therapy offers a balance of non-judgmental support with concrete tools and direction that will help you live a more fulfilling life. I work with people dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and other psychological issues.

Welcome to my practice. 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.

Relationships are one of the most impactful areas of our lives. If you are experiencing a lot of stress in your relationships, I can imagine the toll it is taking on your overall wellbeing. The quality of our childhood bonds can determine the patterns of our relationships in adulthood. Human connections can improve. With the help of a judgment-free professional and implementation of new skills, relationships can become healing and transformative. I believe that growth is achieved by the pairing of insight and the implementation of tools and techniques that will be learned in psychotherapy.

My style is authentic, approachable, humorous, and heartfelt. I want you to have a reflective outlet where you feel entirely accepted so that you can cultivate your challenges and build tangible skills to help you meet your goals. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques and approaches, including an integrative and holistic approach, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed, experiential, and person-centered techniques to treat the whole person and ensure that what is done in therapy is personalized, collaborative, and unique to you as a patient.

It takes courage to understand the need for healing. My mission in psychotherapy is to help you learn how to help yourself. It should be emphasized that psychotherapy is far from "one size fit all." Therefore, the art of change in psychotherapy is achieved through a thorough psychological assessment in order to apply the precise remedies to your specific challenges. As a result, healing is often achieved by re-conceptualizing your past and presence, but most importantly is to improve your outlook on the future. I have been practicing as a psychologist for 26 years, on three continents.

CHANGE! Does something need to change? Are you overwhelmed, sad, anxious, or unsure of what's going on? There's hope! You're already on the right track; hardest step is to admit you need help.

I am here to provide you with tools and coping skills to accomplish that change in a safe and relaxing environment set at a comfortable pace to ease the process that can often be difficult.

I am a licensed psychotherapist with over 30 years experience in treating relationship issues and mood disorders such as anger, depression and anxiety. My style is relaxed and supportive, and my attitude positive and non-judgmental. I believe that resolving personal and relationship issues involves three major processes: identifying the root of the problem, recognizing and changing the dynamics that perpetuate it, and developing new strategies in order to sustain change. My job is to help clients find the key that unlocks their inner strengths to understand themselves and interact more effectively with others.
