    Apr 2024 - Present · 2 yrs 4 mos

    I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist (#145698) working in private practice. I provide in-person therapy from my Los Angeles Hancock Park/Larchmont-area office and online therapy throughout California via Telehealth. I offer compassionate and affirmative psychotherapy for teens, adults, couples and families. While I specialize in working with gay parents, members of the LGBTQIA+ community and those in creative professions, I’m certainly not limited to those populations. I welcome anyone who wants to work on having a deeper self-awareness, more meaningful relationships and a desire to create positive and lasting changes. When we work together, we’ll reawaken your self-awareness by building upon the strengths and passions you may have long forgotten you had. I believe you are the expert of your own hopes and hardships; I will work to help facilitate change, comfort and radical self-acceptance. We'll collaborate on ways to manage daily stressors and anxieties and get you living an authentic and fulfilling life.
