Relationships get complicated. Careers become demanding. Families stop speaking. Sometimes the pressure of holding everything together simply becomes too much. My specialty is working with high-achieving individuals and couples navigating relationship conflict, divorce, estrangement, career pressures, and life's transitions, to assist you tackling a myriad of challenges. We don't always have someone we trust to talk about it with, but now you will. If something isn't working, you don't have to figure it out alone. Together, we'll get clear about what's happening, what needs to change, and what comes next.
My style is candid, engaged, and practical. I’m not big on psychological jargon, and I believe there’s room for humor, even when life gets complicated. Therapy with me is a real conversation. We identify the issues, connect the dots, and focus on achievable goals using simple tools to create progress you can see and feel.
And, you don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out. That's what the first conversation is for. I offer private, concierge therapy in Santa Monica and virtually throughout California, with evening and weekend availability. If you're ready for something to change, let's talk.

My specialties include relationship issues, divorce, and estrangement, but clients rarely arrive with just one thing going on. Life is complicated. I work with the whole person, helping clients navigate those relationships, work, identity, loss, change, and the times when life simply feels overwhelming or confusing. My approach is individualized, practical, and focused on meaningful change.

No single approach works for everyone. I draw from several evidence-based therapies and tailor our work to you, your goals, and how you best respond. The methods matter, but so does the relationship. I believe good therapy starts with trust, honesty, and feeling comfortable enough to talk about the things that are hardest to say out loud.
