About My Clients

I specialized in Clinical Social Work and interdisciplinary healthcare. I have experience working with chronic pain patients, adolescents, anxiety, and depression

My Background and Approach

I'm a native New Yorker living in Los Angeles, I obtained my Bachelor's from UCLA and Master's of Social Work from the University of Kansas. I specialized in interdisciplinary healthcare and led groups for behavioral pain management. Since interning in the family clinic at KU, I've volunteered at the Los Angeles LGBT Center. I am passionate about mindfulness, sex-positive education, and mental health.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My goal with clients is to provide a space to unapologetically be yourself and gain personal mastery. My approach is: 1. Strengths-based: let's identify the strengths you already have and use them to accomplish your goals. 2. Client-centered: you know you best! I'm here as a facilitator not a director 3. Evidenced-based: I love to geek out on data and use methodologies based in research. Therapy is a process. I believe there is no one size fits all solution. As a result, I approach each situation with curiosity and openness. I am here and ready to listen with empathy, ask questions, and suggest therapeutic modalities. Let's work together to try-on solutions that work best for you.
