Hi! Thank you for taking a moment to learn about what I do and how I can help you. My approach is informed by over 12 years of experience in community mental health and psychotherapy. I primarily utilize trauma-responsive practices such as mindfulness, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), and psychodynamic theory to get to the root of your pain and transcend to a healthier, more authentic version of yourself. I work with adults, couples, adolescents, and groups. My areas of focus include trauma, anxiety & depression, relationship issues, life transitions, body image, and chronic pain. An essential part of my work is helping people sustain the motivation to change and connect with their existing and sometimes hidden inner resources and strengths.
I have a master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. I have also worked as a Behavioral Health Director at a Community Clinic in Los Angeles and as a Mindfulness Meditation facilitator in private and public settings with groups and individuals.
I love to bring lightness and warmth to my work. I find spontaneity builds connection and a sense of ease to a process that can often feel fabricated.
Individual sessions are 50 minutes long and offered in person or via HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing. I offer weekly and/or bi-weekly appointments. I am currently taking new clients Monday through Friday.
Fee: $200 per session
I offer sliding scale pricing based on a brief initial consultation.
Couples sessions are 50 minutes long (and can extend to up to 60 minutes). These are offered in person or via HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing. I have two open slots for couples Monday through Friday.
Fee: $250 per session
I offer sliding scale pricing based on brief consultation.
Group sessions are 60 minutes long and consist of a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 10 people. Some groups are semi-structured, and others are process-based. Postpartum Support, Mindfulness Meditation, and Caregiver support groups are offered via HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing throughout the year.
Fee: $40 per group session
Contact for openings and screening.
I relate with my clients openly and at a gentle, slow, and steady pace. Slowing things down allows for a clearer view of the stories, values, and beliefs that occupy our inner world.
I help cultivate a more present and mindful presence and model that in my work and therapeutic relationships.
I actively co-create a comfortable environment with the client to see and listen to all parts of themselves, ready to have a voice, wanting to be understood, challenged, and prepared for change. In my experience, a solid and genuine therapeutic alliance is the best starting point for a healthy relationship with self and others.
I offer a free phone consultation to make sure we are a good match. If it feels right for you, I look forward to your journey towards deeper meaning, reduced suffering and more fulfilling relationships. I do not accept insurance; however, I am happy to provide a monthly bill for you to submit to your insurance carrier.
