I provide individual therapy to adults and teens. I practice therapy from a place of empathy, nonjudgment, warmth and humor. I believe that each person holds wisdom and unique gifts and talents and that my role, as your therapist, is to reflect the light within you. I have been providing therapy for 20 years and worked in community mental health, as a clinical supervisor, for 14 years before fulfilling my dream of opening my full-time private practice in 2023.
My expertise is in child and adolescent anxiety reduction, OCD, autism and ADHD. My goal is to provide education to kids and their parents about anxiety and related and co-occurring conditions. I also frequently treat phobias, separation anxiety, emotion regulation issues, school refusal, learning disabilities, trauma, giftedness and 2e.
I am also experienced in helping adults and children navigate issues related to divorce including coparenting, custody planning, divorce navigation from considering separation (discernment) through divorce mediation/proceedings to post judgment. I also have expertise in helping adults navigate post separation abuse, domestic violence and coercive control.
I'm a licensed psychotherapist with 34 years of experience. I do my best to meet you "where you are" and to offer compassionate presence as you progress through your personal process of self-discovery, self-identification, and evolution.
I'm honored to be part of your journey of transformation. I approach sessions in collaboration, as you learn to free yourself from judgment, criticism, and pain; to change negative perceptions that do not serve; and to experience more ease and peace in life.
All roads lead to Rome! It doesn't matter where we jump in, if you’re ready, we’ll get there. My POV is through a Neurodiverse lens and incorporates Attachment Theory and C-PTSD with the idea that much of our conflict and distress stems from old wounds & unmet needs that can often be traced back to necessary adaptations needed to survive not only our families of origin but also societal norms and expectations. The gig of being human is hard and de-coding this blueprint can provide a path toward understanding, healing and, fulfillment. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities including Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
Our practice specializes in treating adults who need assistance managing depression, anxiety, codependency, stress, couples/marital counseling, and family therapy. We accept straight Medicare and several other Medicare plans. Feel free to reach out to us via email ([email protected]) to check if we take your specific plan if it is not listed on the Headway site!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Studio City
Searching for therapists in Studio City starts with knowing what kind of support and therapy style may fit your needs. You might be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match what you want to discuss. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller local market like Studio City, nearby office options may be more limited than in larger parts of Los Angeles. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in California. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each Studio City therapist describes their approach, session style, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Studio City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show estimated costs before you book, and list real appointment availability. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
