About me...

I am a native of Los Angeles and mother of three children.  The most important aspect of my work is creating a safe environment for you.  It's when we feel safe that we can truly be vulnerable and open about our past, our shame, our hopes, and our dreams.  

My approach to treatment is informed by Psychodynamic Theory,  Attachment Theory, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  Couples Therapy has been shaped by Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). 

My style is interactive and direct. I believe our relationship is key to the healing process.  Being truly listened to or seen for who one is, sometimes for the fist time, can also be a transformative experience.

Loving the work I do...

I love being a therapist. I am in constant awe of the capacity that people have for self-transformation.  I love watching my clients shift and change...shaking off old patterns and becoming the people they know themselves to be deep down. I am exceptionally privileged to do this work. My clients inspire me by their courage to show up to my office - because at a fundamental level they know they deserve, and can really have, a better life.
