I’m glad you’re here. “Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up," Brene Brown. Finding and selecting a therapist is hard. You might read the profile and get excited. Then comes the courageous step of telling your story. Maybe it goes well, maybe it doesn’t. Don’t give up. You are your best advocate. You are the expert in your own life. Here’s a little bit about me to see if you or your child might be interested to give me a try. My name is Mary, she/her, and I'm ready to go on a journey of self-discovery with you, your family, your child, or your partner(s). I believe there is healing to experience.
My therapeutic background includes working with public school kids, LGBTQIA+ teens and their families, and adults experiencing homelessness in Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles. These experiences have only deepened the empathetic lens I see the world and my clients through, witnessing so much suffering and recognizing the powerful forces of external systems.
My previous 20-year career in marketing research has also influenced my approach and interest to help others in life transitions, career transitions, job loss, work or academic struggles. An important question during this process (and always) is to ask yourself, "what do I need right now?” I hope I can help you unpack that and many more questions.

I'm a queer and LGBT affirmative therapist. I work with LGBT teens, LGBT families, LGBT couples, and LGBT adults. I help support your child in finding their identity and self-confidence. I help families cope with the systematic changes that occur when a family member comes out. I help queer and non-monogamous couples with the psychological impacts of being in relationships that look different.
