I’m a licensed psychotherapist, and a yoga and meditation teacher based in Venice Beach, California. I am dedicated to supporting you on your journey home - to yourself. As a therapist, I see individuals, families and couples. My practice areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief and loss, trauma, addictions, relationship difficulties, creative blocks, and life transitions. My approach is individualized. I’ll meet you where you are, and offer you an individualized treatment plan based on my education and trainings.
My toolkit includes psychodynamic and insight oriented therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, family systems work, stress management, mindfulness, somatic techniques and ketamine assisted psychotherapy (KAP).
The therapeutic relationship helps you remove whatever isn't you so that you're authentic, joyful self can come alive and thrive. Contact me for your free phone consultation to begin the journey home. Progress is return.
