I am accepting only assessment patients at this time. I work with children, adolescents, and adults for autism, learning disability, and ADHD evaluations in person in Encino, CA. My patients generally seek assessment services to help guide treatment, answer a question about whether a certain diagnosis may be impacting their ability to meet their needs, or provide bolstered accommodations for school, college, or college testing (SAT's/ACT's). I accept both insurance and private pay.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, my goal is to help individuals improve their relationships with loved ones, uncover their strengths, and acquire positive coping skills to lead a healthy life. During my 18 years as a Therapist, I have worked with families, couples, and individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma such as sexual, physical, and emotional abuse. In addition, I had the opportunity to work with Adult Children of parents with personality disorders, particularly Borderline and Narcissistic.

Are you struggling during pregnancy or postpartum life and feeling completely burnt out? BECOMING A PARENT CAN BE HARD! For many, it can feel completely overwhelming. You find yourself comparing yourself to other moms and wonder if you are even cut out for motherhood. You’re likely feeling drained at the end of the day, anxious trying to figure out logistics and lacking any time for self-care. You may also find it difficult to connect with your partner and are tired of “not feeling like yourself”. I get it! I'm here to tell you that it is possible to find relief and realistic, lasting solutions and I am here to help!

I wanted to be therapist since I was six years old. I would line teddy bears up around my room and ask them to tell me what was going on with them. As I was growing up, I was always the person my friends would confide in when they needed support. I understand the bravery it takes to come to therapy and to take the time to work through what has happened to you. I am always honored to sit with the clients I work with as they trust me to share their stories. The relationship between the therapist and the client is essential. My tenet for therapy is to meet everyone where they are at. I use a lot of reflection with clients.

I believe in the transformative power of therapy to address problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings, and conflicts within relationships. Taking this courageous step can lead to creating healthier versions of oneself by navigating painful emotions and enhancing self-worth and relationships.

Whether you are coping with stress, going through a major transition or loss, or seeking to better understand yourself, therapy can be a powerful experience. It is a journey that can include healing, learning new skills, coping with difficult things from your past and preparing for the future. Many things can get in the way of being your own preferred version of yourself. Sometimes it is relationship challenges, sometimes it's an unhealthy pattern that you learned in the past, or something else entirely. We can work through these challenges so that you feel more in touch with person you want to be.

Through telehealth-, home-, and school-based services, I meet my clients where they are. Usually families come to me because they feel stuck. Their child has difficult emotions, acts out, and cannot seem to listen. Teachers and parents struggle to feel effective and worry about the child’s future. Everything feels complicated and out of control.

What does that mean?

You feel overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed, yet still feel like you're falling behind some invisible measure of "real success." You are over being the giver in your relationships, whether in friendships where you initiate all of the texts or your intimate relationships where you feel more like a manager than a true partner. Your nervous system is spent because you're burned out, but even the thought of downtime gives you guilt. You're ready for something to change on a deeper level so that you can finally understand yourself, accept yourself, and trust yourself, no matter the circumstances.
