I’m a licensed Therapist/Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience. My approach is warm, direct, compassionate and down-to-earth. Building genuine relationships with my clients enables us to work collaboratively and focus on deeply personalized treatment. I received my Masters in Social Work from UCLA in 2003 and have worked with a wide variety of clients and issues over the years. I specialize in relationship issues, premarital/marital, anxiety, depression, parenting, life-transitions, infertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. I enjoy working with adults, couples, teens, and families. I strive to understand each person’s unique cultural identity and welcome clients of all backgrounds. I use a variety of evidence based therapy modalities depending on each client’s unique needs, including: Strength-Based Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. My focus is on empowering clients to make long lasting changes that will enable them to live the life they envision for themselves. If you believe we could be a good match, please reach out for a free 15 minute phone call consultation. I offer sessions online and am licensed to work with clients throughout the state of California.
