"You will not experience the silent treatment. I am a board certified psychotherapist providing a wide range of evidence based skills tailor-made for individuals and couples. We'll develop a treatment plan to heal strained relationships, difficult situations, depressive and anxious feelings, career issues. As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist I help couples ease into discussions, changing the direction of a conversation from disappointment or divorce to growth. Successful individuals and successful couples know how to re-position their thoughts and feelings to create a better place for themselves in this world."

"We are all in relationships. We desire connection and want healthy, fun relationships. And the relationship that often frustrates us is our partnership. We assume that this is the place where we find safety and comfort and yet find ourselves feeling confused, misunderstood, hurt or just not heard. Though we know that relationships are complex, we don't really understand why they can be so difficult. As a relationship therapist, I treat couples and individuals and I facilitate your growth so you can have the love you desire. You can start your journey today with a partner or alone."

"It is my experience after practicing over 24 years that it is not so much what you think that is important rather it is how you feel. We are motivated by our feelings. A thought is usually not sufficient to initiate lasting change unless it is connected to a feeling. Psychotherapy is usually sought when the individual is in crisis and feels overwhelmed. When an individual is overwhelmed it is like being overloaded with more hurt then can be lived with. The therapist is a catalyst to help the individual integrate their feelings and thoughts and to live in the present."

"I am particularly effective working with people who come to therapy with histories of childhood trauma, including emotional, sexual and/or physical abuse, and family neglect and/or abandonment. I have a strong commitment to helping men come to grips with the pains, conflicts and deficits in their work and relational lives. At the same time, I believe I can be particularly helpful to women, as a male therapist, in their work with these kinds of issues. I work primarily with individual adults. I have expertise working with a wide range of issues, including substance abuse/dependence, depression and anxiety."

"I have 30 years of experience helping children, adults, couples and families to resolve conflicts, heal from trauma or losses, and create more loving relationships. I enjoy working with children of all ages as well as adolescents. My work with children is enriched by my also being a parenting consultant; I teach parents how to approach problems, intervene effectively, and foster cooperation. I am skilled at assisting people of all ages to recover from abuse, trauma, loss, anxiety and depression and acquire new coping skills and stress management. I design a treatment that fits the goals, needs and strengths of each individual, couple or family."

"I have had training and experience in several types of therapy; psychodynamic, dream work, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based psychotherapy which uses meditation as a complement. Most of my clients are experiencing depression, anxiety or going through a life crisis/transition. I enjoy using books and readings to concretely extend the therapy to life outside the sessions. A special interest is working with writers to faciliate their creative process. And I find humor is very important in therapy as in life."

"I provide a safe and supportive environment for you to talk about issues. Common problems which my clients bring to therapy are depression, family conflict, anxiety, life transitions, relationships, workplace conflict, grief and loss. Often clients are seeking better communication and a lessening of conflict and stress in their lives. I have over 25 years of experience working with adults, couples (straight and gay), families, children, and adolescents. I help new clients identify goals for treatment and together we work out a plan for achieving them. My clinical expertise with various treatment approaches helps clients to realize their desired goals."

"How does "therapy" work? Psychotherapy works by helping you look at feelings, thoughts and behavior in situations which you find problematic. It helps you to learn more effective ways in dealing with those situations. Psychotherapy is a collaborative effort. You and I will identify your goals -- what you want to have happen, and agree on how you'll know when you're making progress. I will talk to you about the length of time it may take to help you see changes. Progress, and change, can happen."

"Stepping into therapy may be due to depression, anxiety, phobias, relationship issues, sense of unhappiness, sense of emptiness or inability to find much meaning in life and living. It can be a choice we make to explore ourselves today, examine the past or expand on ideas and future dreams. If you are driven to grow, develop and have a natural curiosity in examining life, living and discovering more about your own path, then psychotherapy is one way to engage in series of exploratory dialogues."

"I am an empathic therapist offering a safe environment to connect with your true self and find relief from emotional pain. Things I can help you with include; Freedom from old patterns that don't work any more. Relief from depression and anxiety. Building a true partnership with children and family. Not being ruled by guilt and shame. Clarity not chaos. An end to self-sabotage. An engaged relationship with self. Genuine connection with others. An escape from lies and secrecy. Confidence and hope for the future. Better physical, emotional, and spiritual health."

"Life hurts sometimes leaving us feeling sad, depressed, anxious, confused and disconnected. I can help you understand the ups and downs of your feelings and circumstances pertaining to your relationships, career, marital, family/friend/child discord, loss of connection, anger and addiction. "

"Well-being involves having awareness of and connection to your self plus good connections with others. If you have struggled with distracting from your own experience, are lost in negative self evaluation, or if you have lost your curiousity about the world, face roadblocks or obstacles to your creativity and want to get relief, reclaim a sense of aliveness, vitality, presence, purpose or optimism - then I can be of help to you. I developed Emotional Pilates - the focus is on helping you build your core emotional strength, balance, flexibility and resilience, including learning how to speak your true experience."

I see psychotherapy as a partnership, shaped by a creative, dynamic relationship that develops between patient and therapist through working together."

"I welcome clients with a wide range of issues and diagnoses.

"Thank you for taking time to read about my work. I am a clinical psychologist (PhD, UCLA, 1991) and have been providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples for over twenty five years. My approach integrates insight oriented/depth psychotherapy with mindfulness/meditation within a framework of body awareness. A central part of therapy is the mutually created caring and healing relationship. If we work together, time will be devoted to building a trusting, safe and containing relationship where early (developmental) as well as more recent challenges can be discussed, explored and healed."

"The foundation of every relationship begins with communication and understanding, whether as an individual or as a couple. We will work together to enhance communication and interpersonal skills and achieve the fulfilling relationships you want and deserve. Also, if you're having symptoms of depression and/or anxiety and feel alone, overwhelmed and have difficulty getting through your day, we will first explore understanding where these feelings come from. My goal is to build on your strengths and incorporate positive coping skills and tools to help alleviate these feelings and be able to live your life to the fullest."

"It can be hard growing up in Los Angeles and dealing with the intense pressure of school, family and friends. It's also hard trying to be an adult, working to establish one's self and feel comfortable in saying, "This is who I am, this is who I want to be." We all come through this process with different stories, experiences and perspective. I love to work with families and individuals on this journey. I have had over five years of experience working with families during their deepest moments of pain and confusion, joy and growth."

"I work with young women who are motivated to build healthy, meaningful relationships. My clients learn that the best way to establish meaningful connections is to improve the relationship they have with themselves. Together, we will address how to build healthy self-esteem, positive body image, how to cope with anxiety and depression, and learn how to build healthy patterns for long lasting relationships. I work with young women who want to improve their quality of life and invest in their healing. I also offer parent coaching and family therapy. *I was previously a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Utah. "

"Are you concerned about your child's wellbeing? As a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of clinical experience, I specialize in treating children/adolescents who present with anxiety, depression, and disruptive behaviors that impact their functioning in home, school, and social settings. I enjoy working with children and their parents helping children learn how to regulate and tolerate feelings (anger, frustration, sadness, and anxiety), manage challenging/disruptive/impulsive behaviors, and acquire adaptive, positive coping skills. I assist parents in learning how to regulate their own feelings and be aware of their behaviors so they can help their child."
