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
Hi, I'm Alli! I know how it feels when you're struggling and not sure who to ask for help. That's why I became a therapist—to be the kind of support I needed when I was going through my own healing.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working in private practice and at UCLA's Dual Diagnosis Program. I help teens and adults feel better using therapies that have been proven to work, like CBT, EMDR, and Animal-Assisted Psychotherapy. I believe the best healing happens when you feel safe, comfortable, and truly understood.
With the help of my therapy animals, I create a welcoming space where getting better feels possible, even when things are really hard. If you're dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, or substance use issues, I'm here to support you as you find your strength again.
If you're looking for a psychotherapist in Los Angeles, I'd love to help.
