Gottman Method Therapists in Encino, CA
The current unprecedented state of our world has presented many challenges and taken a toll on mental health and wellness, triggering the body's stress response, de-activating the immune system, and putting our mind/body in survival mode. This has the propensity to escalate anxiety, depression, addiction, and disease and reactivates outdated coping skills and keeps our body in fight or flight. Let's work together to create a strong support system to manage and navigate the stress and uncertainty and minimize the toll on our mental health, physical health, and relationships, and empower ourselves for the future.

Relationships are one of the most impactful areas of our lives. If you are experiencing a lot of stress in your relationships, I can imagine the toll it is taking on your overall wellbeing. The quality of our childhood bonds can determine the patterns of our relationships in adulthood. Human connections can improve. With the help of a judgment-free professional and implementation of new skills, relationships can become healing and transformative. I believe that growth is achieved by the pairing of insight and the implementation of tools and techniques that will be learned in psychotherapy.

My goal is to help you achieve your goals. Having done this work for 30 years the issues that have sadly remained consistent are the high levels of child sexual abuse and adult sexual assault, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. A significant number of people will have an assault in their lifetime, so you are not alone. My doc dissertation was on sexual trauma, resilience (surviving), & posttraumatic growth (thriving). I am dedicated to all types of trauma and see that people can not only get better but they can choose the life they wish to live, often with help of a therapist and a desire to change.

Relationships are one of the most important components of our lives. They bring us happiness and joy but they have their fair share of challenges but sex shouldn't be one of them. When sex issues keep you from maintaining and obtaining healthy relationships than its time to seek support. I specialize in working with couples and individuals who struggle with sexual disorders, infidelity, sex/porn addiction, difficulty with sexual performance and/or arousal.

Navigating life's ups and downs can be a challenge. Trying to manage the many parts of our lives can become overwhelming and block access to our inner voice, where all of our answers lie. I work collaboratively with you to uncover and understand past experiences and traumas that create unhealthy patterns and keep us from thriving. One of the key components to thriving emotionally and in our relationships is the relationship we build with ourselves.

Do others think your life looks “good” from the outside, yet it still feels like something’s missing on the inside? You’ve accomplished a lot in life, but don’t feel the sense of fulfillment you expected. A big life change—maybe a breakup, new job, new marriage, change in family dynamic, or a move—has highlighted the fact that you’re still not as happy as you want to be. Something is telling you that you need to make a change (even if you’re not quite sure what it is). You want to gain deeper insight into yourself & your past. You’re ready for change and to start creating new patterns in your life.
