About My Clients
Are you feeling dissatisfied in your daily life? Things are okay, but you feel something’s not quite right. You’re employed, maybe in a relationship, socialize with friends, but you wonder if you’re happy. You want to better understand yourself and improve your life, and you’re on this page because you’re trying to figure out if therapy might help you. I have devoted my life to working with people like you and to utilizing the best treatment practices. I look forward to speaking with you.
My Background and Approach
I am PASSIONATE about working with individuals one-on-one. While my practice is open to adults of all ages, I have a focus and expertise in working with 20- and 30-year-olds who struggle with all issues - anxiety, relationships, communication, family conflict, work habits, self-esteem, perfectionism, LGBTQ issues, and traumas. Unlike more traditional therapists, I will make suggestions and offer ideas. I will occasionally ask you to do powerful writing exercises with me. I will teach you how to better understand who you are and what's causing your distress. I will help you understand how to utilize your feelings to navigate your life. I will help you understand the power of more effective communication. I completed my education and training among the most prestigious institutions in Los Angeles, and continue to develop my professional education. Please feel free to give me a call or e-mail me and we'll have a brief phone conversation and go from there.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
When I was 21, I found myself lost, depressed, generally unhappy, yet on the outside I looked successful. That's when I started seeing a therapist. And soon after, my entire world changed. After graduating from UCLA with a degree in Political Science, I decided to return to school to become a therapist. And I never looked back. I view therapy as simply one way to enhance one's life. It is an effective way to decrease distress and improve satisfaction and happiness. And it works! Often times clients have shared with me they did not have a positive experience with a past therapist, but have found that working with me was gratifying. My colleagues and clients will tell you that I am caring, calm, strong, wise, and nonjudgmental. I love what I do, and hope that you will also enjoy working with me. I invite you to give me a call and give it a try. I will work with you to make this experience worthwhile.
