I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist based in Los Angeles and love this work. I came to therapy through an unconventional path — nearly a decade in film and photography, work as a youth counselor, and service in the military — all of which deeply shaped how I understand people and their stories.
I earned my master's degree from Pacifica Graduate Institute, where I focused on psychodynamic and depth-oriented approaches. My thesis centered on ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, a specialty I've continued developing through advanced trainings I've completed.
I work with individuals, couples, adolescents & families across a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I have a particular love for working with creative professionals, veterans and young adults. I'm LGBTQ+ affirmative and love working with folks from the queer community.
My practice spans traditional talk therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) — including psychedelic integration support for those processing experiences outside of our work together. I see clients in person in Atwater Village in Northeast LA, and virtually throughout California.
An MSW graduate from California State University, Long Beach, I am a licensed clinical social worker who has over 25 years serving clients in my private practice. I enjoy helping individuals and families navigate their life transitions and challenges to restore their health, well-being, and purpose. My clinical expertise include women's health, perinatal mental health, education/career transitions, psycho-oncology, family systems, military and veterans, and grief/loss.
I am a recently licensed counseling psychologist with extensive training and experience in psychotherapy, assessment, and psychology research. I have provided individual, couples, and group therapy at the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center (now LGBT Center), the Los Angeles VA, the Boston VA, and Enki Health Services. I have enjoyed training and supervising student therapists at the University of West Georgia and the University of Redlands. I also teach psychology at UCLA Extension. In general, I am curious about the the human mind and I am dedicated to help others who are struggling.
Growing up in California, Colorado and Tennessee concocted a Midwestern warmth with an open-mindedness and appreciation of our differences. These experiences gave me a curiosity for how humans develop in their environments and with their unique histories, leading me to pursue psychology.
I studied Political Science at Vanderbilt University before a seven year tenure in the corporate world. I am grateful for this experience as it has added depth and perspective to my work with clients. In 2014 I began my counseling psychology degree at The Wright Institute in Berkeley and then completed my training in San Francisco. My training journey encompassed internships at community mental health clinics, elementary and high schools, group therapy practices, and social service sites where I received intensive supervision in a variety of modalities. I regularly attend trainings and consult with colleagues to hone my craft and provide the best possible care.
I’m a licensed therapist with a Master’s in Counseling with an emphasis in Child and Family Therapy, and I’m certified in Perinatal Mental Health.

I have experience helping with anxiety, emotional regulation, behavioral challenges, and school-related concerns, and I especially enjoy working with children and pre-teens using play and creative approaches.
Hello, I have been in private practice for over 25 years with vast experiences working with all clients of all ages. I like helping with relationships, as I have been married 30years. I am open minded and easy to talk to and love emotionally intimate conversations.
I work with adolescents and adults and offer individual, couples, and family therapy. I help individuals identify their goals and make the changes necessary to help them lead more productive and fulfilling lives.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Fullerton
Searching for therapists in Fullerton starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare Fullerton therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist offers approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.
Fullerton is a smaller city, so local in-person availability may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping access to a therapist licensed in California. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you understand how a therapist structures sessions and communicates with the people they support.
Therapy in Fullerton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, review estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
