Existential Therapists in Marina Del Rey, CA

Does fear or sadness hold you back from living your best life ? Are you in a mid-life or existential crisis and not sure how to make meaningful change ? Perhaps past relationships and traumas continue to sabotage you from your goals, or continue to limit you. You do not have to figure this out alone. Together we can work collaboratively to uncover patterns in thoughts and behaviors that do not serve you. Whether as an individual, or within a relationship, we will make meaningful change in your life.

Psychologically speaking, why do we do what we do? Where are we coming from . . . what are we moving toward . . . and how are we proceeding? Do our impulses, our actions or reactions, our habits, our thoughts, judgments, interpretations, or even our intentions support or lead to what we imagine to be our "happiness?" I work with individuals, couples, and families in short- and long-term psychotherapy. Some clients prefer brief "solution-focused" therapy to help them with specific short-term issues, while others want to work more deeply toward longer-lasting growth and transformation.

Self-knowledge is a lifelong journey. The ideal client is one who has willingness to move inward toward deeper understanding. This most effectively occurs as we explore ourselves in relationship to others. The fit between you and your therapist is fundamental to this process. It is imperative for a client to feel safe and supported by their therapist in order to tolerate and receive the compassionate honesty and gentle confrontation, which are the keys to this transformative work. If you are willing and ready to confront your light and shadow, I welcome you to move inward, together. I provide psychotherapy and sex therapy.

I work with individual clients as well as couples and families. Many of my clients desire to find a better way to cope with problems, resolve conflicts and improve their interpersonal communication skills. Working with clients who look for help coping with work pressures, with finding balance between professional and family life, I often rely on my previous corporate experience in international public relations and marketing. I view my role as providing guidance and support on your journey to greater self confidence in resolving conflicts both internal and interpersonal, in improving emotional and overall wellbeing.

Do you want to feel more empowered, have a greater understanding of your circumstances, become more trusting of yourself, and regain hopefulness about your situation? This is absolutely attainable with therapeutic support. My objectives are to create a safe environment for you to express yourself and regain hope in your life. I employ cognitive behavioral techniques, while integrating interpersonal and systems approaches to best meet you where you are. I approach my work with compassion, normalization, humor and a passion to motivate positive change and healing.

I imagine many of us can identify with what it is like to dismiss our painful emotions or tuck away our undesirable experiences. To carry the weight of depression, past trauma, or endure distressing anxious thoughts about the future. However your heart may ache, you have arrived here to what I would hope you can consider as an invitation. An invitation to enter a process of healing, empowerment, growth and becoming. I believe one of our greatest human needs is to be seen and understood. I hope that this process that we choose to begin can be an affirming and collaborative one in which we tend to your goals together.

Do you have an irrational, gut feeling you can't seem to shake? Maybe something telling you that you're not good enough, unsafe, powerless...? Sometimes, difficult experiences in our past can cloud how we live in and see the present. We find ourselves overreacting to things or people, feeling anxious or worthless. Our head can tell us we are being irrational, but that doesn't change the feeling. One of my goals is in helping you re-process the experiences in your life that push these feelings, so you not only know that you're okay - you feel it.
