Healing Through Connection, Compassion, and Evidence-Based Care

Every journey is unique, and I offer several paths to healing and growth. Whether you're an adult navigating life's challenges or a teen finding your way, we'll work together to find the approach that best suits your needs.

Therapy for Adults

Finding Balance in Life's Challenges
Life as an adult often comes with its own challenges—managing stress, navigating relationships, or finding balance while dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can explore these challenges and discover tools to help you heal and thrive.

For adults facing dual diagnosis—the presence of both a mental health condition and substance use disorder—I bring specialized expertise from my work at UCLA's Dual Diagnosis Intensive Outpatient Program. Together, we'll address the unique ways these challenges interact, helping you find clarity, stability, and a path toward recovery.

Therapy for Teens

Adolescence is a time of discovery, growth, and challenges. I work with teens to address anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, suicidal ideation, and peer or school difficulties. Therapy provides a safe space where teens feel supported while exploring their emotions and building confidence.
Some teens also face challenges with substance use or the combination of mental health and substance use (dual diagnosis). These issues can feel overwhelming, but with the right support, recovery is possible. Together, we'll work on understanding these struggles and creating a plan for healing and resilience.

Here's How I Can Support You

Specializing in CBT, EMDR, and Animal-Assisted Psychotherapy, I provide personalized care for adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, and substance use recovery.
