About

I believe that you are the expert in your life story and have many hidden strengths that can be discovered to overcome obstacles and create positive outcomes. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and I am here to support you in this discovery process of achieving optimum health. I am a Fellow at McLean Hospital-Harvard Medical School in the Institute of Coaching and have 18 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist. Prior experience as a producer’s assistant to Academy Award and Emmy Award winners garnered an understanding of the dreams and ambitions of wanting to get to the top, staying at the top, and balancing school/career/family/relationship demands. At times we may run into relationship problems or addictions when we strive to live up to personal and family obligations and expectations and want our share of success as well. When one side of the scale becomes heavier than the other, it causes an imbalance. In order to bring back balance into lives, I provide CBT, Solution-focused, and Motivational Interviewing psychotherapy evidence-based practices with a humanistic perspective. I utilized my psychotherapeutic interventions with clients to assess, navigate goals, and help improve the lives of clients associated with the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health and the Los Angeles County Superior Court. My current clients include Fortune 100 executives and program managers and are of diverse backgrounds. I provide psychotherapy and coaching solutions, to those who are seeking caring support, change, or improvement in their lives as individuals, couples, and families; wanting to establish stronger work, family, and/or team organizational objectives, assuaging anxious thoughts, depression, or stressors associated with life challenges.
