You know you're a good parent. You know you're a good partner or spouse. So why are things so difficult? In spite of our best efforts and intentions, life can present us with unexpected challenges in our families, challenges that push us to our very limits. When family members are faced with special needs, chronic illness or estrangement it impacts everyone. Understanding this will allow you to be your best self and the best advocate or caregiver you can be. As a therapist, my goal is to give troubled families the support they need to restore balance and wellness.

My roots as a therapist and healer have seeded over the past thirty-five years, bringing substance and depth to my one-on-one sessions with couples and individuals. During this time, I have maintained a private practice, which has always consisted of process-oriented consciousness work -- a means by which to enter safely and deeply into the inner landscape of the psyche for positive and real world change. My results-oriented approach to psychology is derived from the commitment to a conscious process and the intrapsychic relationship one can access when choosing to turn toward--and look at--oneself.

The goal of psychotherapy is to make you stronger and more focused, so you can solve the problems that baffle and frustrate you today. You don't have to face alone the issues and situations that you are not sure how to master. Victory may find you at last if you keep hammering away with the same old hammer. Or success may come to stay in your life if you change your strategy entirely. Which path should you take? That is the mystery of your life today, and I would like to help you find the answer.

“Taking care of yourself is not a selfish act.” -Leslie Knope. Congratulations on taking another step in your healing journey. As someone who has been in the client’s chair herself, I know finding the right care can be overwhelming. With my own marginalized identities and lived experiences, I have witnessed the barriers of receiving treatment firsthand, and I understand the significance of having a clinician who is knowledgeable about how our identities impact our journeys. Because of this, cultural humility, social justice, and identity-affirmation are important values that are a part of my practice.

Are you and your partner having the same argument on repeat? Has the intimacy and romance been replaced with distance and frustration? Seemingly little things become explosive arguments. And trying to talk about it leads to more conflict. Worse yet, the distance and disconnection is deafening. The unresolved issues are getting worse, and you are left feeling exhausted, invalidated, and alone. Every passing day feels like one step closer to your breaking point. Your family means everything to you and you worry it's taking a toll on your kids. You want more than anything to reconnect with your partner and finally feel heard.

Welcome to my Psychology Today page and thank you for your interest. Most of us need help at some point in our lives. There's no need to struggle alone,I can help. My sessions take advantage of the fact that our brains are plastic and can change patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving. How do I know this? For twenty years I have helped clients alleviate depression, grief, anxiety and stress, worked through relationship problems, and identified and stopped self-destructive patterns and situations that disrupt daily life.

People enter into therapy for many reasons. Often the catalyst is difficulty with a relationship, a job, or a way of coping. Anxiety and depression can provide the stimulus to seek help. When they intrude into everyday waking consciousness they are indicators that something is out of balance and needs to be addressed. Areas of particular interest within my practice are parent-child difficulties, especially the early stages of parenting; relationships; finding one's voice and inner authority; creativity; grief and loss; and the struggle to live one's own life.

Career Counseling, Depression/Anxiety are primary specializations. I believe the client is his/her own best therapist and already possesses the necessary wisdom for healing to begin. I can facilitate this process by providing a safe, non-intrusive, supportive environment. I prefer to acknowledge, build and reinforce the client's strengths rather than focus on old negative beliefs. 25+ years experience.

As a Sexuality Specialist and CSAT, I have successfully treated clients struggling with many different sexual problems (Men: erectile dysfunction, rapid/premature/delayed ejaculation. Women: low desire, painful intercourse, vaginismus/vulvadynia. Either: sexual inexperience, sexual anorexia, childhood sexual traumas including incest). I often use EMDR to resolve underlying traumas. I have researched and taught at UCLA, SMC, The University of Chicago, DePaul and have been a sexuality expert on NBC, ABC and KCAL 9 news.

My ideal client is one who is ready to do the work! Yes, if we do the work then life becomes an opportunity to love, live, and live life. One of my former clients who just happened to have been an Emmy and Tony award winner stated, "Siri has the formula." I have humbly bowed my head at the feet of several masters. Now is the time when I am being called to lovingly share what I have learned as I hopefully elevate others in the process.

If the old coping strategies have stopped working, or worse, are becoming self-destructive, reaching out for help can be a daunting but ultimately liberating step toward growth and healing. My communication style is direct, but equally warm, empathic, and relatable. I have been practicing for 25 years working with youth & adults in both short-term behavioral skills-based treatment models as well as longer-term supportive psychotherapy. I have experience in both the private and non profit sectors as a Clinician, Clinical Supervisor of intern therapists, Family Mediator, Family Program Director, and Clinical Consultant.
