After growing up in a small industrial town in Ohio, I earned a bachelor’s degree from Georgetown University in the nascent field of Psycholinguistics. Upon graduation I became an activist at its inception when West Hollywood became the “first gay city in the US”. As a manager of a major niteclub I'm proud to have the doors for guests and staff alike without regard to race, sexuality, gender identity, or abledness and my Practice reflects such inclusivity. I see primarily Adult Individuals of any age; as well as teens ranging in age from 14yo+; and Couples.

I'm a psychotherapist working with individuals, couples and families in the LA area and Sandpoint, Idaho. 25 years experience in one location and challenge the problems facing our complex and diverse society today. I believe in the Unity of Life. From the earliest single cell forms of life, to the complex human organism, there is a basic energetic function that unites: Pain & Pleasure, Thinking & Emotion, Mind & Body, Man & Women, Family & Society. When this unitary function is disrupted and blocked, healthy life suffers. Conflict and stress from this unitary disruption often results in irrationality, unhappiness and/or disease.

Are you looking for a more fulfilling life? In my life coaching and therapy sessions, I am here to guide you to connect with your values, and to experience joy in your life (again). We can focus on topics such as relationships, anxiety, career, depression, ADHD, and Autism. Through convenient Zoom sessions, I create an environment, so you can be yourself, get insight, and gain tools. As an empathic person and mother, I will bring my authentic self and compassion for people to sessions.

Asking for help can be one of the most difficult and even scariest thing for you to do. But therapy doesn't have to be so daunting nor does it have to take years for you to feel better. The therapy space should feel safe and empowering in order for you to be able to share, to learn, to consider a different perspective, to gain insight, to process your experiences, to start healing your emotional wounds, and to grow. You are not alone in feeling lost, helpless, angry, or confused. WE ALL feel this way at some point in, or about some areas of, our lives. A burden shared is a burden less heavy.

You may choose therapy for multiple reasons. Whether you are here to resolve relationship conflicts, life transition, loss, trauma, or to manage stressors with work; taking this first step can be quite challenging as well as rewarding.Experiencing life's conflicts are often the most demanding aspect of our daily lives; problems often become bigger when you try to ignore them. My goal is to provide guidance for you to find your inner strength to enjoy life again. Together, we will work through your vulnerabilities, fears, and beliefs to have a better understanding of how things can be improved.

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. So why therapy now? What are your hopes and dreams for the future? Problems only survive when they are supported by particular beliefs and principles. This can feel like a relentless need to escape a moment that never ends. Exploring the details and effects of these obstacles will help lead to different outcomes not yet discovered.
