Therapy and counseling | Los Angeles, CA
I help people achieve fearless self-acceptance.
It’s a deeply human experience to feel stuck and lose perspective from time to time. Even more human is the need for a fresh perspective from a non-judgmental set of ears. Providing this kind of support and helping people find relief, fulfillment, and a sense of direction is one of my greatest passions.








MY APPROACH
Genuine Connection and Understanding
Honesty, humility, curiosity, and warmth sit at the forefront of my practice. I see therapy as a journey we take together, that starts from wherever you are. My attachment-based and psychodynamic approach focuses on building up your existing strengths and resilience. By looking at how your past has shaped your life, we can shift perspective from “what’s wrong with me?” to “what happened to me?” This takes power away from shame and heightens your self-awareness. From this place of understanding and acceptance, we’ll use tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and EMDR to help you regulate your mood and make a direct, real-time impact on your emotional experience and relationships.

How do I choose the right therapist?
Finding the right therapist is very personal and there is definitely no formula to achieve this. Most therapists, me included, will start with an initial consultations so you can both get to know each other. Though there is no formula, there are a few things you should be watching for.
First, you should should fell safe and understood. This is primary, because most of what will be discussed is highly personal and without that feeling of safety it will be difficult to open up.
Second, you should feel secure in their competence. They should be able to discuss their experience and methodology in a way that you can understand.
Lastly, you should feel challenged. Therapists are understanding and supportive, but they must also be able to gently challenge your boundaries and push you to grow.
