Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles. I received my Masters degree from Columbia University in New York and have been practicing for 10+ years, serving individuals with complex traumas, relational challenges, anxiety, mood disorders, you name it. I enjoy working with young adults to move through life's various seasons to find inner peace, deep joy, and to live at the highest potential.

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

In our first session, we will spend time getting to know each other. Then discuss what brings you to therapy and what you may be looking to accomplish or feel. This information will help me tailor treatment to meet your needs.

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

With over 10+ years of experience in working with various individuals, I am seasoned in whatever challenge you may bring to the table. Having worked with and helped so many clients, I am eager to join you on your journey in addressing the challenges you may be experiencing.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

With over a decade of experience as a dedicated clinician, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma Focused- CBT to help individuals navigate and overcome their mental health challenges. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, and I am committed to creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment.Through personalized treatment plans, I empower individuals to develop effective coping strategies, challenge negative thought patterns, uncover unhealthy core beliefs and achieve lasting positive change. My extensive experience enables me to tailor therapy to meet the unique needs of each individual, fostering resilience and promoting overall well-being.

Psychodynamic

I utilize a psychodynamic approach to address the complex and deep-seated aspects of my clients' mental health needs. This therapeutic method focuses on uncovering unconscious patterns and exploring the influence of past experiences on present behaviors. By fostering a safe and empathetic therapeutic relationship, I guide clients in gaining insight into their emotions and interpersonal dynamics. This process facilitates profound self-awareness and personal growth, enabling clients to resolve internal conflicts, improve relationships, and enhance their overall emotional well-being. My goal is to support clients in achieving long-lasting change through meaningful exploration and understanding of their inner world.
