About

Our first understanding of ourselves comes from the first people we know. From there, the other relationships we participate in tend to reflect those aspects of ourselves previously learned. I specialize in treating the presenting symptoms of childhood trauma such as substance abuse, social anxieties, clinical and situational depression, and unresolved rage. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I work with a variety of people. I have found myself to be effective in working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people in the public eye, young adults, their co-workers and families. Clients from the fields of entertainment, real estate other practitioners in the field of mental health have found their way to my personal brand toward the long-lasting relief of a lifetime w/internal psychological, spiritual and philosophical pain.
