LGBT therapists in Calabasas, CA

From the outside, it looks like you've got it handled: the job, the responsibilities, the reputation for being reliable. Underneath, your mind rarely slows down: replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions you've already made, feeling guilty when you try to rest.

I work with young adults with anxiety, perfectionism, and self-imposed pressure. A lot of my clients are exhausted by overthinking and frustrated that doing everything "right" hasn't actually brought them any peace.

Together, we'll figure out what's keeping that cycle going and build real tools for managing anxiety and pressure Not just insight, but things you can actually use. My style is direct, down-to-earth, and LGBTQ+ affirming.

Most people start out feeling like they're carrying more than they can hold. Over time, that tends to get lighter, more confidence in your own decisions, less dread before hard conversations, and a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks from the outside.

If you're ready to stop carrying this alone, I'd be glad to connect.

I’ve worked in the social services field for 20 years and have been practicing as a therapist since 2022. I have worked with navigating childhood trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, identity, and the challenges that come with being a human in a complicated world. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients, men, and parents who are interested in understanding themselves more deeply and making meaningful changes in their lives. My personality shows up in the therapy room—I’m warm, curious, direct, and not afraid to bring in humor when we need it.
