Gottman Method Therapists in Beverly Hills, CA

If you have difficulty forgiving yourself for what you have done, said, or failed to say have relationship conflict, feel depressed, anxious, or have trauma, you need a therapist who is empathetic, knowledgeable, and experienced. In my many years practicing I've had the pleasure of teaching, writing, and helping individuals, couples, and families with vastly different problems. As everyone is different, I adapt to your particular needs. I listen and I partner with you to accomplish what works best for you as I know a wide array of treatment approaches. In fact, I have taught them. I have a very broad knowledge base to draw upon.

What we seek in our partner is connection. Deep, relaxed, secure connection is the springboard to passion. I help couples re-connect and stay connected by enhancing the positive, eliminating the negative and becoming each other's advocate. I help singles identify patterns that have haunted past relationships and help find and forge a new kind of loving partnership. Anxiety, depression and addictions all stem from, or are fueled by, deficient early connections. Learning the skill and discipline to navigate a conscious romantic relationship can heal much of the past and free us from many restricting thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

Troubled by feelings of overwhelming anger, sadness, anxiety, family and relationship problems, communication struggles, daily stress, parent/child stress, a "terrible" teen, self esteem worries, or addiction/food issues? There is relief from these problems and the pain they cause to you. At your own pace let's get to the root of the problem so it can be managed and hopefully eliminated. Seeking therapy can be overwhelming and scary, but you have already taken the first step just by searching this site. Let's do the rest of the work together!

I have a specialization working with couples, families and individuals; as well as substance abuse/chemical dependency and addiction treatment (porn, sex & gambling).

Are you feeling depressed, anxious, or having relationship issues? You don't have to feel that way. I'm a compassionate therapist who can help you have a joyful life. For 15 years, I've used Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in English, Spanish and Portuguese to help adults, couples, and teens. I also utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Positive Psychology. I treat depression, anxiety, relationship issues, PTSD, phobias, OCD, ADHD, sexual problems, and victims of sexual and physical abuse.

I work with clients who are (highly) sensitive, empathic, or intuitive. Sensitive people have a finely attuned nervous system that is a huge gift when made conscious. They experience life deeply, yet don't always feel easily understood by others. Growing up, they often experienced not fitting in, and have adapted to a largely non-sensitive world in myriad ways that didn't always serve their best interest. I support sensitive people on their path to finding their voice, experiencing genuine relationships, purposeful work, and reclaiming their space in the world.

We have all envisioned some version of our ideal selves. Often times past hurts or traumas can affect our lives so that we act out from a place of brokenness rather than healing and compassion. The dissonance our present selves and who we aspire to be can lead to frustration, depression, anxiety, and despair. If you are feeling stagnant and looking for ways to shift out of unhealthy self-defeating patterns, you have come to the right place.

In entertainment, the arts, and freelance work isolation is an issue that's often unrecognized. The joy of working on something you deeply care about also comes with side-effects: Isolation, fear of rejection, motivation loss and lack of balance. It can be hard to find your footing and tap into your best self. This unique lifestyle offers the potential for fulfillment and also the potential for stagnancy and imbalance. It can be so overwhelming. You want to know when is the right time to follow your intuition. When do you trust people around you and your own voice that doubts you?

Life and its challenges can get pretty overwhelming! I strive to work collaboratively with people to create positive changes in a caring and non-pathologizing environment for those who are struggling with a variety of problems. My guiding approach to effective therapy focuses on seeing the problem as separate from the person. I believe that people are the experts of their lives. I choose to sit in a place of curiosity to help you uncover already present strengths or develop new approaches to life's challenges.
