I received my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine and am a licensed psychologist at UCLA Medical Hospital where I help some of the most respected researchers in the nation conduct studies that will improve children, adolescents, and adults psychological care. I am approachable and experienced in working with a variety of issues including transitioning into foster and adoptive homes, Chronic Tic Disorder and Tourette's, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Attention-Deficit Disorders, general anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. My approach to treatment is using evidence based treatments to address the client's presenting issues

My practice is devoted to working with adults who wish to explore ways to improve their relationships, increase self-understanding, self-compassion, curiosity and self-awareness. By looking at the cultural, familial and internal influences that may prevent us from making congruent choices for ourselves, together we can explore potential barriers and reveal what you truly want for yourself. Whether you are wanting to live with less stress, have experienced a recent life transition or want to improve your relationship with yourself and others, I am here to help

I am a psychotherapist with nearly 20 years of experience providing quality mental health care for clients of all ages. Are you experiencing symptoms of depression such as feelings of hopelessness, tearfulness, or an inability to enjoy daily life? Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, worry, or intermittent panic attacks? Do you have a history of trauma that haunts your dreams and affects your relationships? Has your child experienced trauma that is impacting his or her mood or school performance? Has family stress taken a toll on your children, your marriage, or yourself?

Does anxiety, fear, sadness, grief, confusion, helplessness, anger, or shame overwhelm you? Maybe a recent loss or previous trauma affects the way you are coping. Perhaps you struggle to navigate your emotions, thoughts, behaviors, or relationships. Let me help you find meaning, patterns, and ultimately relief, with compassion, insight, and tools to heal. Through this process, I hope you will find a greater sense of calm, clarity, and agency.

Scanning through this website trying to discern which therapist will be a good fit from a photograph and a blurb is tricky and also a sign of the times. Ideally less time is spent searching the web for answers and more can be spent with a person whose sole intention is to understand the complexities of your point of view, your experiences and facilitate you getting to where you want to go, while walking right along side you. Depression, anxiety, trauma, distorted relationship with food, difficulty being productive; these are all areas I feel confident I can help you with.

Congratulations on taking the first step to improving your life and overall wellbeing! I have been working with children, families, and adults for 10 years.

As a highly trained psychotherapist and relationship counselor located in the heart of Culver City, California, my passion is helping individuals, couples, and families to create relationships and lives that they love. I provide couples therapy and individual counseling in a warm, accepting space.

Rather than list my technical skills or present a diatribe about my approach to psychotherapy, I will tell you a few significant facts about myself and the work we will do together. I have been providing treatment for 30 years. My clients improve, they recover, and they heal. I assist people who suffer from anxiety and depression through insight and introspection focused on the analysis of a patient’s deep-seeded fear-related trauma and how that fear impacts the NOW . I focus on channeling the energy that can be harnessed from fear, a powerful human emotion that can rob us of our life energy.

Making that first call to start therapy can be hard; you're taking a risk that you'll connect with that voice on the phone, or that video image online. But you made that call-you took that risk... and that's incredible. We all need a safe space where we can talk through our fears, our worries, and our challenges. You want to find that right person who you know is not just listening to you; but really hearing you.

I see couples (or individuals) who are suffering and struggling in their relationships and may be considering divorce, separation, or acting out in some dystructive manner such as having affairs, doing risky behavior, or using addictive behaviors to numb their emotional pain.

Are you feeling stuck? Do you feel anxious, depressed, or trapped in the chaos of negative thoughts, but don't know how to change? Are you unfulfilled in your relationships? These struggles may keep you awake at night, searching for a way to feel more overall peace and well being. Traumatic experiences make it difficult to break through pain and hopelessness, and may be leading you to self-destructive patterns. Your pain and emotional suffering is bearable when you share it.

Making the decision to start therapy can feel overwhelming. My goal is to eliminate that stress and create a space for adolescents, adults, couples, and families to process emotions and explore their identities and their relationships in a non-judgmental, safe environment. I believe that we all undergo transitions and experiences that require additional support from an objective third party to allow us to thrive personally and interpersonally. I utilize individualized, evidence-based approaches to foster a collaborative environment that produces long-term change.
