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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in North Hollywood
Searching for therapists in North Hollywood starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may list focus areas such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for training, specialties, and approaches that fit your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In North Hollywood, local office options may vary by neighborhood, from Toluca Lake and Valley Village to nearby Studio City. Virtual therapy can expand your search if you want more scheduling options or prefer care from home. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what each therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in North Hollywood can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
