Services

I see individual and couples in person in Larchmont Village, Los Angeles and online throughout California and New York.

Individual Therapy

My individual clients collaborate with me to identify the change they want to see. They paint a picture of what they hope their life would look like if they felt that therapy was working. We then identify the obstacles and barriers that stand in their way of that imagined life. Together, we identify what strengths they already possess in addition to developing new techniques, resources and resilience. We use all this help them to move through those barriers, ultimately landing in their new way of living in the world.

Couples Therapy

Couples come to my office desiring new ways of communicating and yearning to find each other again. We collaborate on identifying how they want the new version of their relationship to look and feel. We then work to create and develop ways they can better listen, see and understand each other, resulting in more loving and productive communication. With couples who also want to alter the structure of the relationship and roles they play, we collaborate to create new expectations and agreements.

Queer Affirmative Therapy

Joining with LGBTQIA+ clients is a particular passion of mine. My queer clients come to me and are able to feel seen, validated and mirrored. Having my own personal lived queer experience as well as specialized training, I find I am able to understand many of the nuances that come with that identity. Queer folks work with me to process how the world and the society we live in make it difficult to exist and take up space, while also taking space to celebrate the joy and specialness of what it is to be queer.

Attachment Focused EMDR

I hold training in the trauma therapy, EMDR. Some clients find the barriers towards their desired life exist due to past adverse and wounding experiences. This shows up as seemingly automatic or patterned behavior that results in continued undesired consequences. EMDR can help to identify the incidents that formed these patterns and give the client a chance to reprocess these events and heal these emotional and mental injuries. The specified Attachment Focused EMDR I use is particularly helpful for those who have past relational trauma that is inhibiting them in the current ways they relate to others.
