About

I have specialized for the past 20 years in the treatment of children, teens, and adult adoptees and foster youth, foster-adoptive parents, and first families. I work with former foster youth and adult adoptees who are struggling with grief and loss, and trauma and help them in their journey through search and reunion. I also facilitate open adoptions. I help first mothers and fathers process grief and loss and facilitate successful reunions. I developed unique psycho-therapeutic interventions that support children, and teens with serious psychological problems secondary to histories of abuse, neglect, and /or multiple placements.
I supervise 6 therapists at Yoffe Therapy training to be Adoption and Foster Care competent. I am the Executive Director of Celia Center, a non-profit community organization in Los Angeles that provides monthly support groups for all members of the foster care and adoption constellation called Adopt Salon. Please see my group's section for more information.
My desire to become a child and adult therapist with a special focus on adoption and foster care challenges derived from my own experience of being adopted at age seven and a half and moving through the foster care system. I work closely with families, social workers, and therapists in theLos Angeles County Dept. of Mental Health and Child & Family Services.
