I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, #135129. I received a Master of Art in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles, where I specialized in Psychology of Trauma. I support individuals of all ages in processing a wide range of issues, including but not limited to, HIV, substance use disorder and various patterns of addiction, intimate partner issues, trauma, both current and past involving families and work environments, depression, self-esteem, anxiety and relationship difficulties.

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

Your first session will be different from future visits. The initial visit is a period for you and I to get to know each other, and get an idea of how to proceed. Future visits will be more therapeutic in nature. For example, in your second session, we'll begin to explore a specific symptom, problem, or past trauma you mentioned in the first session.

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

I also have an MFA from UCLA in Film and Television Producing and for 16 years I worked both in the studio system and with independents. Primarily I worked in development and production of features, TV sitcoms and radio programming. I studied art in undergraduate school at the California College of the Arts and maintain a connection in the arts both locally and on the east coast. The film, television and art industries have given me a certain insight into an array of different personalities and an appreciation of the trials and tribulations that come with the creative mind and soul.
