Do you wish you felt better about yourself, but can’t stop diminishing, comparing, and judging yourself, your past, or your decisions?

Are you feeling as though you are stuck in a relationship, career, or pattern that you can’t seem to break through?

Are you a therapist, facilitator, or leader who needs a space and a container just for you?

Do you recognize your self-sabotaging patterns but don’t know how to feel more aligned with your ideal self, or able to create and keep a life you love?

I’m here for you. I’ve been in private practice for 18 years, and through offering hundreds of clients over 25,000 hours of therapy, I've honed in on resources to offer to you. I  support my clients in learning to trust themselves, set boundaries, and find meaning and joy in relationships with themselves and others.

Whatever brought you to this page, I’m certain I can support you by finding the answers and tools already within you. Life in general, systems of injustice, mis-attunements from caregivers, traumas, loss…there is so much in the way of being able to access our full capacity. I’m here to help you remember who you are, to support your full integrity, and to co-create a trusting, safe space for you to heal.

It’s not necessary to have a mental health diagnosis to benefit from therapy. While I do treat Eating Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Addiction, and other clinical disorders, I often find that my clients are looking to gain insight into their past to create a future they deeply desire. If you are living below the threshold of your potential for happiness, reach out to me.

I’m LGBTQIA identified and create a space where all are welcome and acknowledged in my practice. I use a client-centered approach, where together, we build a container for our work and relationship that allows your bravery to emerge. I use the methods of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), psychodynamic psychotherapy, somatic work, attachment theory, and intuition to guide me as we co-create more alignment, acceptance, and capacity for your life.

Individual therapy is my specialty, and I provide services to adult clients in both Manhattan Beach, CA, and online through teletherapy.  My office is located at 3701 Highland Avenue, Suite 303B Manhattan Beach, CA 90266. 

I'm outside of insurance panels, but do provide monthly Superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Please contact me for questions about fees, and contact your insurance provider for more information about their out-of-network policies.
