Does the life or relationship you want feel just out of reach? Whether you are navigating partner conflict, work-life imbalance, impostor syndrome, or identity-related stress, you do not have to do it alone. I help clients gain clarity, improve communication, and build more authentic, fulfilling relationships. I provide therapy for individuals and couples in Los Angeles and across California. My work focuses on relationship issues, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy, parenting support, communication challenges, surrogacy journeys, creative blocks, and burnout in the entertainment industry.

My approach is curious, collaborative, and respectful of your lived experience. I want to help you identify and amplify strengths as we explore what's not working. I may gently challenge internalized “shoulds” that no longer serve you with support and care. My work is informed by Narrative, attachment-based, Gestalt, and Gottman modalities.

You know yourself best—I want to help you build on your inner wisdom. I offer personalized therapy for anxiety, relationships, and life transitions. You've already taken a brave first step. If you are ready to take the next one, reach out for a free consultation, and let’s see if we’re a good fit.
