Treatment Approach
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
- Family Systems Therapy Looks at problems within the context of the family as a whole. It aims to improve communication and balance in family relationships.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) A short-term approach focused on improving relationships and social support. It is often used for depression and grief.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: I believe that successful psychotherapy begins with a trusting relationship in which you feel comfortable expressing yourself honestly. My therapeutic style is personal, attentive, and collaborative. I strive to create an atmosphere where you can explore difficult feelings and experiences without fear of criticism or judgment.
Rather than imposing a predetermined solution, I work with you to understand what matters most in your life. Together, we examine the experiences, beliefs, and relationship patterns that may contribute to your present difficulties. As you develop greater insight into yourself, you can begin to make choices that better reflect your needs, values, and aspirations.
I recognize that every individual is different, and I adapt our work to your circumstances, personality, and goals. Some clients need help managing immediate emotional challenges, while others wish to explore longstanding patterns or pursue deeper personal growth.
My aim is to help you develop greater self-understanding, emotional resilience, and confidence in your ability to create meaningful change. I believe therapy should be a place not only for addressing difficulties, but also for discovering strengths and possibilities you may not yet recognize in yourself.

Life can be challenging, even when things appear to be going well on the surface. You may be struggling with anxiety, sadness, loneliness, relationship difficulties, or a sense that something important is missing from your life. Perhaps you're facing a major transition, coping with loss, or finding that familiar ways of dealing with problems are no longer working.
Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe you deserve to be heard, understood, and treated with compassion and respect.
My practice is built on the belief that people have an extraordinary capacity for personal growth and positive change throughout their lives. Our past experiences influence who we are, but they do not have to determine our future. With greater self-awareness, understanding, and support, we can discover new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to others.
I approach psychotherapy as a collaborative relationship. My role is not to judge you or tell you how to live your life, but to help you explore your experiences, recognize patterns that may be holding you back, and discover your own strengths and possibilities.
I take the time to understand each person as an individual. There is no single approach that works for everyone, and I believe that effective therapy begins with developing a genuine relationship based on trust, openness, and mutual respect.
Our work may involve understanding the emotional roots of present difficulties, improving communication, navigating relationships, coping with painful experiences, or developing greater confidence and independence.
I particularly value helping people recognize that personal development does not end at a certain age. Whether you are beginning a new chapter of life, adjusting to changing circumstances, or simply seeking greater happiness and peace of mind, there is always room for discovery and growth.
I offer psychotherapy for adults through in-person appointments in the Los Angeles area and online sessions for clients located in California.
If you are considering therapy, I invite you to reach out. Taking that first step can open the door to a more satisfying and meaningful life.
