About My Clients
My clients broadly fall into 4 buckets: couples, teens, executives, and those dealing with substance use issues. I also work with your prototypical adult therapy client who is searching for more meaning in life, struggling with anxiety/depression, or trying to navigate a break-up.
My Background and Approach
I earned my Master's in Psychology from USC, an institution I am incredibly fond of and where I have since had the privilege of returning to speak. I take an eclectic approach in my work with clients which means the modalities I employ will depend on the needs of each individual or couple. I have worked clinically for more than a decade with couples, teens, and adults, and when I noticed my practice was filling up with Manhattan Beach executives, I began supporting clients through coaching as well. Finally, I'm currently in my second year of a two-year program to become certified in Relational Life Therapy for Couples.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I truly believe adversity can be a gift. I've been known to say: Show me someone who has cruised through life, and I'll show you an unfunny person. Nonetheless, these obstacles can feel insurmountable at the time, which is why I enjoy joining with clients and helping them find reservoirs of strength within themselves that they didn't know were there.
