I am a trauma informed therapist that uses a toolbox of methods to take the journey with you and help you heal the issues that are causing you pain. I am empathic, creative and I love to laugh. A good laugh heals a lot of hurts. — Madeleine L’Engle The bulk of my experience comes from working with vulnerable populations that carry a lot of trauma. That is the homeless population that includes LGBTIA, youth and adults with severe mental illness and/or substance use disorders. My approach is structured and relational. I transfer my trauma informed experience to this format to co-create with you the best plan to address your issues. You can expect me to be a guiding light on your journey that will provide safety and emotional support.

Perhaps you have reached a point in your life in which something has to change; the sadness, anger, confusion or depression have become too great a burden to carry. Perhaps you have been a victim of profound brokenness and long for healing and a brighter future. Or perhaps you desperately want to be a good parent, but it seems like everything you have tried hasn't worked. If this is you, I would be honored to come alongside you and offer my assistance. It takes wisdom to recognize when a problem exists and courage to do something about it. As your therapist, you honor me by sharing your life with me. I will bring the best that I know from my study and experience. I will actively listen to your concerns, offer real solutions and provide relevant feedback. I will always have compassion and empathy for you in all that we do. I value you as a person in need of respect and care and will always treat you with highest dignity.

How I work: First we will have an introductory conversation on the phone. I will gain preliminary understanding of the problem you need help with. If I will feel that I may not be the right fit, I will provide you with referrals for therapists who specialize in the issue you are seeking a solution for (i.e., pain management). We will also discuss fees. In our first session I will go over the inform consent and office policies with you and will collect data for the intake. I will become very involved with you and we will work as a team. I will ask you what your goals are and after a couple of sessions, I will discuss the treatment plan with you. You will be in a very safe and supportive environment. I will learn to know who you are and what your personality is and I will adapt the therapeutic process to meet your individual needs. We will discuss your progress as we go along and make changes if the need arises. We will also discuss those changes to ensure that we are on the right direction in your path for personal growth.

Has your relationship become like roommates or a war zone or you just feel that something's missing but you don't know what it is? Maybe you feel the connection is lost. You may both feel isolated, hurt and angry. In therapy I'll help you to improve communication. We'll unpack "old baggage" from the past to understand its impact on the present. You may be longing to get your needs met and to feel heard. We'll tackle issues such as escalating arguments, walls of silence, infidelity, shame and anger.

We may unravel the pain of old or new relationship wounds still affecting both of you. Every couple is different and I strive to meet you where you're at. In my 30+ years of experience, I have helped a great many individuals and couples of varied ethnicities, religions, classes, gender identities and sexual orientations.

I care about helping people move toward psychological wellness and motivating and inspiring them to reach goals. I consider therapy to be a valuable component of the walk of one's inner journey toward self completion. Psycho-education permits understanding of the origin of problematic symptoms, and how an individual became well. This type of knowledge creates skills that are transferable across life events and time.

Motivated couples come here to work on their trust building, whether due to infidelity, or desire to come closer and more in sync. Learn how to work on your relationship here in counseling by helping build communication skills as well as thrive in your sexual life. Affair When it feels unimaginable to ever recover from dealing with infidelity in your relationship, with all the worries that consume you about an affair, you wonder if you can ever trust again. I help couples learn how to take responsibility and move forward in their relationships. Call to schedule an appointment and to learn the tools to rebuild your connection and love. Arguing When you are tired of having the same old, exhausting argument, I help you learn how to speak and be heard, understood and feel respected again. Call to learn positive communication skills and some couples therapy exercises. Sex life When you have lost hope that you will ever feel satisfaction in your body again and worry takes over that your relationship is doomed to be without sex, I can help you learn how to ignite the spark again and get back to enjoying the perks of being a couple. Call to schedule an appointment and to learn the tools to a healthy marriage and how to rebuild physical intimacy and emotional intimacy. Trust Building & Communication Therapy with your mate can provide you with new perspectives and positive options. Powerful strategies and tools are needed to break old patterns and overcome the challenges. It is true that most adults enter into relationships today without having had the right tools to eventually be successful. This explains the rate of divorce and discontent. Couples therapy gives you the knowledge to learn how to speak, how to be heard, touched, adored, and grow old together. These tools are priceless for your lives whether you are fielding a current conflict or want to come in for preventive measures to insure a connected union. Ever feel like your spouse responds the same way not matter what the situation? Can you predict the outcome of your arguments? Does your experience of talking include being heard? Most of the time there is a stale stagnant pattern, and “old shoe” mentality around how we communicate with our loved one. You CAN however have a relationship filled with fresh alive conversation, the satisfying feeling of being heard, and understood and (although not always agreed with) still respected! Still respected inside of a disagreement? YES! Mature enough to move on and operate in love with different opinions?! YES! Even if trust has been broken, if there has been an infidelity, if someone cheated, if your boyfriend lied, if your girlfriend is sneaking around having an emotional affair or if you just bring a general untrustworthiness with you from childhood traumas...whatever the case may be, trust can be rebuilt if desired. It is a process. It is not however, one we know how to do immediately. Re building trust is not an instinctual thing. We want to protect ourselves and build a wall, and that is smart until it no longer serves us and we want to let love back in. For the one who broke the trust, learning how to validate your partner and accept responsibility is paramount. You can find out new ways to get your needs met without breaking trust, finding your voice, and identifying things or behaviors that trigger you. Trust building is a two way street for couples. Trust building is an art. That is where therapy comes in. You don’t have to know how to do this on your own, you are not supposed to, I’m here to help.

It can be very difficult to take steps towards positive change or to seek support when facing challenge in your life. Therefore, my primary goal when working with a new client is to create a comfortable environment. I strive to get to know you and to understand what you want from our work. I believe that each person's needs will be different, so I draw from a wide range of techniques to tailor therapy to your specific goals.

I am a psychotherapist and specialized in emotionally- focused therapy. EFT is a structured, well-respected method of therapy that helps couples find their way back to love.

I work with individuals and couples ages 15 and up to work towards knowing freedom from all forms of suffering often due to past trauma; neglect; separation/divorce; grief; health issues; chronic pain; depression; anxiety. I use a variety of approaches including mindfulness meditation; yoga; psychotherapy; Eye Movement Desensitization and Re-processing; Emotional Freedom Technique. Clients say that I have a soothing voice and a comfortable peaceful office. They say that I am a good listener; compassionate; attuned; gentle yet direct and at times challenging. I teach an 8-Week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program based on the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn and Zindel Segal that includes a full one-day silent meditation retreat. The program is based on In the beginning stages of counselling my goal is to help people create stability, which can be achieved by developing or enhancing existing coping skills and finding balance through an expanded support system eating mindfully; and learning to incorporate quiet time for meditation and self-care. Once life has become more stable - some people may choose to leave therapy while others may enter the second phase which involves change from the inside out. This stage may include processing past traumatic events, painful experiences, the development of negative self-esteem while learning to recognize unskilful habits and thought patterns that negatively impact self-esteem and confidence. This stage may include EMDR, EFT, a deeper mindfulness meditation practice; and/or restorative yoga. Changing from the inside out can result in freedom from the past; an ability to live in the present; and the skills to manage the inevitable storms of life that will present themselves in the future. In the final phase of therapy everything gets tied together and often leads people to other practices that will be maintained throughout life (ie meditation; faith; exercise; yoga....). Although clients are already well on their way to freedom, the third phase is a time in therapy when people can really begin to experience more fullfilling relationships with themselves and with others.

It is essential for each of us to discover our own way of being. Frequently, in therapy, people often feel frustrated because they don't feel they have the ability to change their situation. It is not always easy to face our problems or seek another's help. The daily stresses of life can build until we feel completely overwhelmed with life. Many who first come to therapy report feeling lost, alone, or depressed and many feel confusion and hopelessness about the future. These feelings are very normal yet most people feel as if they are falling apart. It is important for each of us to allow ourselves the space to reflect upon our day to day life and our future. Therapy is just that opportunity. It allows us to work through some of the most difficult struggles life can impose on us in an atmosphere of acceptance and unconditional support. Competent therapists do not offer solutions or take sides. They help clients work out solutions according to individual values and lifestyles. Seeking professional assistance is a sign of courage and a willingness to deal with life's many changes

If you are reading this, you may very well be suffering and in need of support to live your life with less dread and more joy, less doubt and greater assurance, less anger and more self-control. If you are seeking services, you are already moving in the right direction by identifying the intent and developing the motivation needed to affect desired changes. A plethora of support services exist, and if you can receive the help you need from less-intensive and/or less-expensive sources, I encourage you to do so. Thankfully there are many self-help groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Gamblers Anonymous, as well as the National Alliance on Mental Illness that can offer great support on the road to recovery. In fact, if you retain my services, I would most likely suggest that you and your family increase and refine your connections to the community, church, and support groups that promote positive growth and well being. Change is not only possible, it is inevitable. Too often we live our lives as though we are permanently enslaved and predestined to be wasted in self-inflicted pain. Most people have moments of clarity in which they understand and appreciate the ability to willfully change the causes and conditions of their lives, but sadly they are caught up in circumstances and surrounded by people who are deeply invested in the familiarity of suffering. As such, opportunities for change are unfulfilled

I have been in practice for over 15 years, and have found that rather than waking up each day and approaching the day as the one we believe we are supposed to have, I help clients reach for the kind of day they want to have. I work with individuals, couples, children and families, and engage with them in the dynamic that they bring in. Once we define the parts of that dynamic that is not functioning at an optimal level for them, we acknowledge it, address it, process why it exists and then attempt to reconfigure it so that all parties are closer to their desired experience. Rather than approach a therapeutic situation from one particular perspective, I use an ecclectic array of modalities so that I may reach each client in a way that meets their needs. I work Mondays through Fridays, from 8 am til 7 pm. My office is conveniently located in Beverly Hills, with easy parking.

Life is full of experiences that help shape and define who we are. Most of us try to deal with these experiences in a way that allows us to better ourselves and those we care for. Sometimes we are faced with challenges and additional support is helpful. It can be frightening and overwhelming to seek support and we admire your courage in taking this positive, first step. Finding the right therapist and building a trusting relationship is critical to your success. Whether you want to address a specific concern or to improve your general well-being, we can help. We each work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. We are dedicated to using our expertise to provide you with a safe environment, free of judgment, where you will learn the tools necessary to reach your goals. We encourage you to look through the information we have provided to learn more about us and the services we provide. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Founded on the principles of scientific research, and operated under the same model used by the Mayo Clinic, our unique model of having a multispecialty team of healthcare practitioners ensures the comprehensive and objective assessment of the patient and delivery of proven treatment protocols leading to positive patient outcomes. Merely offering hope to individuals and families is simply not adequate. All patients at the Portrait Health Centers are assigned a Patient Coordinator trained to act as a Patient Educator and Patient Advocate not only for the benefit of the patient but for the family, as well. Each patient’s coordinator fully explains each option available to them and assists in making the right decision as to the course of treatment. Because all medical specialties are located within the Portrait Health Centers, the Patient Coordinator can help arrange an appointment with any of the departments to insure organized and predictive care. The Portrait Health Centers provide a convenient source for all of the proven technologies and therapies for Depression, Nutritional needs, ADHD and other behavioral and learning disabilities.
