I use online video therapy to help couples change how they think, feel, and behave by integrating mindfulness, compassion and neurobiology. I am passionate about creating new models for the delivery of psychotherapy and behavioral wellness coaching utilizing web-based technologies which allow us to increase access, reduce cost, and enhance effectiveness. I work with clients via secure video, email, and text as well as HIPPA compliant complimentary resources. Research studies consistently indicate that online video therapy is equivalent to face-to-face care in various settings. Because online video therapy is a relatively new, innovative and evolving form of practice, it requires additional, specific training to assure effective clinical outcomes. I am a Board Certified – TeleMental Health Provider (BC – TMH 1808) and I have extensive experience working with clients via online video both as a psychotherapist and as a professional coach. I continue to invest in additional training to remain at the cutting edge of innovation.
Hello! I’m a licensed therapist currently located in the Bay Area and providing online therapy to individuals and couples in California. I help individuals struggling with body image, disordered eating, intimacy, relationships, and anxiety to learn skills and feel empowered in their lives. My style is warm, authentic, and collaborative with a bit of humor.We all desire connection, confidence, and ease in our lives- sometimes we just need some help reaching our goals. Reach out to learn more about how I can help.
In life, we travel through the present moment while simultaneously being influenced by the past. At times this may feel confusing, jumbled, frightening or damn-near impossible.
Who am I? What am I doing? Where am I going?
These are just some of the questions we ask ourselves -- the ones that keep us up at night. While I cannot answer these questions for you, through Psychoanalysis I can offer you the space to explore these deep questions and support you through your journey into yourself -- with all its twists and turns.
This is a collaborative process. Together we will take the plunge into your history, wade through experiences and relationship dynamics that have shaped your world, and dream of new possibilities and potentials that have until now remained out of reach.
Psychoanalysis is not easy, but nothing that touches the soul is. To quote Neville Symington, "Psychoanalysis is not for the person who has had a breakdown and just wants to start functioning again, because as the analysis proceeds he may have to revise his whole life and alter it radically. I think that psychoanalysis is for those who have a curiosity about life, but also wish to live it inwardly" (from The Psychoanalytic Experience).
If you wish to explore yourself in-depth and exist as your truest self, I invite you to contact me. I am accepting Clients virtually and in-person in Los Angeles, California.

The method of Prof. Dr. Nosssrat Peseschkian (known as positive transcultural psychotherapy) enables a holistic development of personality and society by linking the following three areas:
1. positive development in the narrower sense (mental and physical well-being of the individual).
2. positive development in a broader sense (connection between mental health, job, family, partnership, future (the "balance model" we call it in the sense of personality development)
3. positive development in a comprehensive sense (mental health through cooperation between different areas of life: science, politics, economy, society, worldview and religion.
The Psychodynamic Positive Method is a depth-psychologically founded, resource-oriented and conflict-centred method from a transcultural perspective and was founded in 1968 by Prof. Dr. Nossrat Peseschkian.
As if being human wasn't tough enough already, many of us have experienced heightened stress, trauma, burnout, anxiety, and relationship difficulties over the past few years. If this sounds familiar, know that you are not alone--I offer convenient online therapy so we can explore your current struggles in the comfort of your home.
One of the most important decisions you will make when considering psychotherapy is who you choose as your therapist. Can you be your authentic self with them? Are they nonjudgmental, open, and curious about you? Reaching out and asking for help can be difficult. With that in mind, my consultations are conversational and as comfortable as possible, especially when speaking about difficult topics.
Telehealth psychotherapy makes therapy accessible from anywhere you have internet access. Recent Research shows that Telehealth sessions are equally effective as face-to-face psychotherapy, with better retention rates and increased access to care. I currently offer face-to-face sessions in West Hollywood.
When you phone, you will get my personal voicemail or I will answer your call myself. Insuring your privacy is of utmost importance, especially among my Client base. You will never have to speak with a secretary, answering service, or receptionist. And unlike some practices, you will never be transferred to an associate or intern.
I am an AAMFT designated Clinical Fellow. I am also core faculty in the Couples and Family Therapy program at Alliant University, where I teach and supervise the next generation of therapists. I also am an expert intimacy consultant for film and TV.
I continue to see the majority of my clients online due to the pandemic. Many clients have stated their preference for an online platform finding it much easier to make therapy a part of their weekly schedule without the added consideration of traffic, child care, or other preparation. A number of clients live a good distance away as well and will remain online clients even when the pandemic is over. I find online therapy equally effective as in person and have had good outcomes with clients online.

Online therapy has strong benefits that are not always obvious to clients before starting. I have found that this can often make online therapy even more effective than in person therapy. It's also a great option during Covid to continue to stay safe and take steps towards living the life you want.

I specialize in perinatal mental health, parenting and relationships. I know firsthand how the path towards becoming a parent is not always easy. Many people seek my support after experiencing pregnancy loss or infertility, or because they are suffering with depression or anxiety as they navigate this stage. Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I help clients heal their wounds to move forward, and uncover what is holding them back and keeping them stuck. We will explore your own experiences in childhood to understand what parenthood means to you and was modeled for you, to help you find and align with the authentic self you want to be as a parent.
