Hi! I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Los Angeles, CA. I received my master's from the University of Southern California in 2014 and have been practicing for just over 10 years. I help adults adjust to life changes, get unstuck and move closer to their personal and professional goals. I really love working with ADHD, low self-esteem, people pleasers, young adults, and parents.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll explore in detail what you're struggling with. I'll gather a detailed history from you, including all of your experiences relevant to the problem that's bringing you into therapy. This will help me create an individualized treatment plan just for you. We'll identify your goals for treatment, and once you've met your goals, treatment can end! (Or, we can target a new goal and continue our work; it's completely up to you.)

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I listen really closely and with genuine curiosity. I'll help you find the language to describe your experience and communicate it more effectively to your loved ones, so that they can support you. I'll help you recognize and harness your many strengths.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with ADHD and the mood symptoms (depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, perfectionism, imposter syndrome) that tend to accompany ADHD. I also do great work with "people pleasers." My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and unsure about the future.
