Divorce Therapists in Glendale, CA

Choosing change is hard. Even scary. Unless you are perfectly happy with life as it is right now, you deserve to feel better and live better. We will work together to take action and make change possible! Whether it’s a specific problem or general displeasure, we will explore root causes, process pain, and establish new patterns.

Hello! I am a licensed psychologist who works with individuals and couples. I specialize in evidence-based therapy (CBT and ACT) for a range of mental health concerns. These include anxiety, depression, adjustment disorder, phobias, perinatal mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder. My training background in medical settings has informed my experience in behavioral health/health psychology such as in the adaptation of lifestyle changes benefiting physical and mental health and working with clients to extinguish unhelpful habits, including in the treatment of sleep disorders and ADHD.

Working with a therapist can feel scary, that’s why my initial goal in the room is to create a safe, comfortable space where the focus is on building relationships with clients. It’s these close relationships that lead to trusting, collaborative and powerful therapy environments. Sometimes reflecting on our past can be difficult, I set the pace of the process specific to your readiness. In addition to proving a safe holding environment, my style is super authentic; I bring warmth, humor, even pop culture references and you’ll likely see my dog pop in the background at times.

While many people come to me feeling stressed, overwhelmed, and defeated, seeking therapy for oneself is actually a sign of strength. It takes a lot to recognize a need for change and to take steps to follow through. In my practice I provide a comfortable, supportive atmosphere to explore alternative ways of living and coping with problems so that life can be more fulfilling and enjoyable. The opportunity to see individuals and families grow and feel better through the therapeutic process is the reason I love my work so much. In addition to providing therapy, I also conduct ADHD screenings and Bariatric surgery screenings.

Making a change takes an act of courage. Congratulations on deciding that you want something different. Whether it's difference in your relationship(s), in the way that you engage with yourself, or in your behaviors, thoughts, or emotions, I am excited to work with you as you move forward with the change that you want. I have committed to keeping up with evidence-based practice and constantly growing in multicultural humility to ensure that you can feel supported and valued and also can achieve the needed change to be your best self.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Something in your life has become enough of a problem that you are seeking help. When things don't turn out the way you imagined, or you find yourself repeating the same patterns that keep you working against yourself, it is only natural to feel anxious, depressed, and/or overwhelmed. You might feel blindsided by a big life transition, paralyzed by shame or fear, or as if you are constantly fighting an uphill battle. Whatever the issue, you are capable of making change, and I am here to help.

"I've always considered it a privilege to listen to people's stories, helping them to understand themselves better, and in the process, to find the resources to resolve their problems. With over 20 years of experience as a Clinical Psychologist, and as a Marriage and Family Therapist earlier, I know how to help men and women of all ages get to the origins of their difficulties efficiently. My goal is to help them discover resources and new personal insights, which in turn open the way to resolving pain and conflict.

My approach to therapy is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can be seen and heard. My goal is for clients to thrive. I provide support and guidance to individuals and couples dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression and grief as well as the stresses that can arise from relationships, career, parenting, fertility, aging and identity. My work is based on the understanding that therapy can be invaluable in processing life's many transitions. Whether you are in crisis or simply need support and a place to talk, we will work together to realize the positive and lasting changes you seek.

One of the hardest challenges in life is discovering new paths to follow when you feel stuck. Issues below the surface of your awareness could be keeping you from finding answers on your own, and so you've taken this first important step of looking for a therapist to help you achieve deeper understanding. In a collaborative therapy setting, we can explore how clearly you see yourself and others, how you approach or avoid life-affirming possibilities, and how to break through the barriers to change that have been in your way. My priority as a therapist is that you feel fully heard and known as we take this journey together.

You are not the problems you are dealing with. The fundamental belief that guides my practice as a psychotherapist is that all of us are worthy, lovable and creative beings capable of thriving and sustaining meaningful relationships. But there are times when we may lose sight of that. Perhaps you have been functioning well for years, but something has happened to upset your equilibrium or temporarily overwhelm your ability to cope. Perhaps you have been harboring feelings of inadequacy your whole life. In either instance, I can help reacquaint you with your strength and purpose, and innate worthiness.

As a therapist, I will act as your guide as you work to develop healthy relationships, create meaningful work, explore your relationship with society, and evolve on your spiritual path. Together, we will choose from a variety of therapeutic approaches (including imagery, dreamwork, and regression) to journey through your past life and future visions. The adventure of coming to know your authentic self will allow you to create the meaningful changes in your life that you are seeking.
