Are you looking to solve the problem you have been having within your family? I am here to help you get the support you’ve been looking for to improve your relationships. Help with the fights at home about homework. Help getting your child to do what they are told the first time. Help with a transition to a new stage of life. I've always gravitated towards working with youth and young adults with the highest needs because that is where I have seen I've been most effective as a therapist.

I work with individuals of all ages, couples, and families.

I teach professionals how to facilitate children & adults as a faculty member of UCLArts and Healing Social Emotional Arts (SEA) program, as an adjunct at universities, and as director of my drama therapy school.
I am a narrative-trained drama therapist who is person-centered in approach. I facilitate individuals, families, and groups in corporate or educational settings. We will work together to re-author problem saturated life narratives as you explore expressive therapies in sessions as a means toward an embodied, cognitive, safe, creative experience. Restoring the whole person is the goal. My expertise has been on self-identity, foster care, adoption, rehab, adolescence, anxiety, trauma, multiculturalism & social skills. Talk, discovery, and recovery through rapport from a drama therapy and a positive psychology foundation nurture you.

I use EMDR to help adults manage anxiety and heal from trauma. If you’re ready to let go of what’s been burdensome for far too long, I can support you. We can begin by addressing the worry, the over-thinking, and the repeated patterns. You can learn tools to calm the body and quiet the mind. Then we can address the hurtful memories from the past. I work best with clients who are ready to go deep. My experience includes working with difficult childhoods/difficult pasts, multicultural, LGBTQ+, and spiritual issues.

I enjoy working with adults and couples who are curious about themselves and am LGBTQ affirmative.
It is true that each psychotherapy has its own life. The unique personal qualities that you and I bring to the table necessarily become interwoven to build a rich, trusting relationship. Together, we will go towards the underlying meaning of your symptoms. I have learned that many "symptoms" are actually inroads to the hidden away, injured, vulnerable parts of self that are waiting for an environment where there are resources for repair, healing, and growth. I am constantly surprised by the human potential to grow and I strive to provide an environment that gives life to the healing process.

I work with adults, young people, and couples who seek to understand distressing experiences in their inner and outer lives. These experiences can include depression, anxiety, motivational issues, and other symptoms. They can have roots in past traumas, bewildering life transitions, or worries about the future. Even for those who have been in therapy before, relationships can disrupt and disappoint. Frustrations at work can raise doubts that go deeper than a job alone.

I work largely with adults and couples who struggle with issues related to anxiety/depression, trauma, life transition issues, women's issues/empowerment, and identity exploration.
The weight of carrying too much will eventually break even the strongest down. It’s completely okay to feel overwhelmed by the struggles of the world and the personal challenges we each face but perhaps you’re ready to offload some of the weight and look for ways to better understand how to navigate these difficulties going forward. Showing up for yourself in therapy is a brave and powerful step towards healing. My approach is warm and empathic. I believe therapy works best when it is not prescribed as a ‘one size fits all’ but rather as a collaborative and individually tailored approach to accomplish each client’s unique goals.

Anxious, depressed, or stuck? I work to create a safe, non-judgmental space for adults and adolescents of all religions, races, sexualities, and genders to process their life needs, wants, and fears. I provide psychotherapy within the context of a therapeutic working alliance; by first building trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship, one can then work towards tackling larger life goals. I work from a core belief that our minds and bodies are deeply connected. Treating the whole person, including the impact of stress on their physical body, is an important component to treating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and more.

I specialize in providing LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapy with teens, adults, and relationship partners who are exploring their sexuality, gender, and relationship-expansive (kink, poly, ENM) identities.
There are infinite reasons we seek therapy. You may find yourself disconnected from your relationships and exhausted by not feeling understood. You may feel pressure to be a perfect person, partner and parent, or struggling to name your feelings or needs in your relationships. I strive to co-create an attuned, safe space and our collaboration will center around your hopes, goals, and intersectional identities. When we allow the unfolding of emotional experiences, it can lead us to the emergence of a deeper understanding of yourself, self-acceptance, and connecting to the power and participation you have in relationships.

Many people in my practice come to therapy to address anxiety, depression, grief, and relational issues. I support people working through major life changes such as career shifts, relationship transition, coming into new identities, or mourning loss. In moments of great change, we have the opportunity to deepen our understanding of ourselves. Therapy offers us the space to be held while we do the hard work that leads to growth and transformation.

I specialize in treating trauma and grief and I particularly love working with suicide loss survivors, DV/SA survivors, adults who were neglected/rejected as children.
You have the ability to live a self determined life, free from the pain of your past. My approach to therapy is relationship driven, and rooted in helping you understand the way your attachment style and the different parts of your personality influence your relationships and behavior. We will work to understand how your past influences your present, and support new ways for you to respond to old triggers in a more self empowered way. I find I am especially good at supporting people who feel both "too much" and "not enough" at the same time. If that sounds like you, let's talk!

I offer a collaborative space for teens and adults seeking individual or couples therapy.
You may come here looking because there are parts of yourself you feel like you must hide. You may feel like there are conflicts with who you are, and how you currently present in the world. You may be coming to a deeper understanding of your gender or sexual identity. It can be hard to know how to talk to your family and friends. This can be a scary time filled with a lot of fear, curiosity, uncertainty, and grief; all of which can complicate your relationship with your family and friends. Together we can explore ways to find a little more ease in the journey.
