Therapists in Los Angeles County, CA

My work with individuals is rooted in mindfulness, attachment, and the occasional nudge. I support clients in connecting with themselves while helping them understand how their history impacts their current relationships and their sense of self. Together, I work with clients on creating a healing, safe, and non-judgmental environment where vulnerability, laughter, and silence are all welcome.

As a psychotherapist I work from a compassionate and practical perspective. My work is holistic and includes a creative exploration of the client's life experience, building awareness and mindfulness, reconnecting to the cues the body gives, and reinforcing positive experiences. I help clients to identify undiscovered potential, create change, and work through a myriad of issues. These issues range from depression and anxiety to questions about where to go next in career and, "Why do I keep dating the wrong person?". Clients come to me to work through trauma, eating disorders, substance abuse, low self-esteem, loss of meaning, and relationship issues.

I believe that there is no “one-size-fits-all” therapy approach and that therapy should be just as unique as the clients themselves. Although I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential therapy, and Mindfulness-based therapy within my practice – I'm more interested in getting to know my clients for who they are, exploring what therapy approaches may work for their individual needs, and providing culturally competent collaborative therapy. When working together, we will set therapeutic goals, work towards decreasing unwanted symptoms, and challenge you to explore your true sense of self.

My aim is to create a caring therapeutic relationship with you that is founded in empathy, trust, and respect. Together we will create a safe and open environment for brave and insightful explorations. I offer collaborative, client-centered therapy that supports the development of personal insights and practical coping skills through curiosity, mindfulness, and compassion.

What is it that has brought you to seek out therapy? If it is because you are looking for someone to provide a safe validating space to feel heard, to learn to take control of your emotions, to change problematic behaviors, learn effective coping mechanisms, process grief, move on from what no longer serves you, solve a problem, or even figure out what the problem is, I can help. Whatever symptoms you are experiencing, they are there to communicate something to you. I can help identify what that is, and what to do with that information.
