Family Therapy in Westchester, Los Angeles, CA

I offer a supportive presence and a safe space where your experiences are acknowledged and respected.

Relationships are either the most fulfilling or the most challenging part of our lives (or both!) - whether with our partner, kids, friends, or family. I'm certain you value your relationships, but maybe you're struggling to feel connected, appreciated, or to stay calm when conflict arises. I promise there’s a reason you’re feeling the way you do, and the reason is more understandable than you think. When we’re at odds with a person we love, it's easy to get stuck in "me vs. them" thinking instead of tackling issues like a team. These last few years have been hard on everyone - if you're struggling right now, you're not alone.

Coping the loss of something significant can feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. Whether you've lost a beloved family member, a cherished pet, your sense of security following trauma, or a meaningful relationship, the emotions that flood in can be intense and seemingly uncontrollable.

It's common to experience a whirlwind of emotions that catch you off guard, leaving you questioning if you'll ever find a way out of this pain. You may even feel as though you've lost touch with who you once were.

“Imperfection is not our personal problem – it is a natural part of existing.” (Tara Brach). I understand that life can be challenging and has its “faults” but it's simply how we choose to manage it. We might often beat ourselves up for lack of follow-through, discipline, or motivation. As Tara Brach stated, we are humans, and being imperfect is a natural part of life. We might fail to realize that being human means making mistakes. While working closely together, I intend to create a space where you can be unapologetically yourself, and not worry about the “shoulds” in life.
