Therapy is a meaningful step and I’m honored to support you on this journey.
We’ll start with a free 15 minute consultation call to talk through what you’re looking for in therapy and to ensure we’re a good fit.
If you decide to move forward, your first therapy session will be scheduled, and I’ll send over an intake questionnaire and consent forms via email.During sessions, you’ll be encouraged to show up as you are and ready to engage in open discussion. Together, we’ll explore your unique needs, strengths, challenges, and goals, creating a personalized treatment plan that supports your growth and well-being.
Whether you’re seeking in-person therapy in West Los Angeles or virtual counseling throughout California, you’ll receive dedicated support for relationship stress, anxiety or tools to navigate life transitions. Our work will focus on helping you feel grounded, understood, and equipped with strategies that you can integrate right away.

I specialize in working with adults, often young adults and millennials, with anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, and burnout. My approach is attachment-based and trauma-informed, integrating EMDR for trauma, CBT for coping skills, and relational therapy to improve connection.
Additionally, I offer therapy for brides and individuals preparing for marriage. Whether in person in West Los Angeles or through online therapy in California, I tailor each session to your unique needs in an environment where you can be free to be yourself. -
Session fee will be discussed with you during our consultation call so you have a clear understanding before starting therapy.
I am an out-of-network provider, which means I do not bill insurance companies directly. However, I’m happy to provide you with a monthly superbill (an itemized receipt for therapy sessions) that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement.
Since every insurance plan is different, I recommend calling the member services phone number on your insurance card to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits. -
Established clients automatically receive appointment reminders by text or email 24 hours before each session. If you need to reschedule or cancel, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice or missed sessions are charged at the full session fee. This policy ensures that your reserved time is protected and allows me to offer availability to other clients who may be waiting.

Feel free to contact me via phone or email. I will make every effort to respond as soon as possible.
Please keep in mind that electronic communication is not encouraged when discussing clinical matter as confidentiality can be compromised. In this, I may suggest scheduling a session to discuss content that may not be appropriate to discuss via email or phone.
If in a life-threatening situation, please contact 911 immediately or go to your nearest emergency room.
