ADULT INDIVIDUAL, ADOLESCENT, FAMILY, AND COUPLES THERAPY
In whatever I do, I'm passionate about anti-oppression work, empowering individuals, families, and communities to reclaim their full sense of humanity. For over 20 years, I have worked in a wide range of clinical settings, from schools, outpatient clinics, inpatient clinics, medical settings and home-based services. I offer a diverse set of therapeutic services for children and teens, young adults, adults, families and couples in order to support you to connect more deeply and fully with yourself, with others and with the world around you.
​My goal is to help you find wellness, empathy, mindfulness, and fulfillment in your life.
My practice rests on a strong foundation of clinical knowledge and research. As a adjunct professor and lecturer at both USC and UCLA graduate programs of social work, I have a passion for knowledge and evidence-based practice that can be tailored to your particular situation and needs, to create an effective and sound treatment plan.
