Welcome! Your journey matters deeply to me. No matter what brings you into therapy, whether it’s anxiety, depression, identity exploration, family conflicts, or something else, you’re not alone. Let’s work together to navigate life’s challenges and celebrate your strengths. Reach out today, and let’s take that first step together. I specialize in working with teens. I also work with adults, families, LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. As a client-centered therapist, I value your expertise in your life.  I adapt our sessions to fit your needs and preferences as they evolve.

 

I specialize in a client-centered systemic approach, passionately nurturing strengths over focusing solely on problems. Together, we’ll embrace the shadows and respect the entirety of who you are, guiding you towards integral growth and empowerment. Let’s embark on a journey where we honor your unique qualities and empower you to thrive.

 

Think of me as the holder of the toolbox; I’ll provide tool options and techniques tailored to you. I trust in your innate wisdom and resilience. It is ok if you don’t (and if you do). Collaboratively we’ll build your confidence and skills, empowering you on your healing journey. I’m here to hold space, hope, and provide steadfast support.

 

My journey includes over 20yrs community building, advocacy, and crisis assistance for women, teens, and marginalized populations. Including advocacy for foster/adopt teens in children’s court, empowering disenfranchised women through entrepreneurship and post-institutional transition assistance.

 

I offer in-person at our cozy space in East Hollywood, online via video call. I also offer house calls if you are in the LA area.
