Individual Therapy
Traditionally, psychotherapy is a one-on-one process, and this is a very effective way to work. With individual therapy, you have a safe, confidential space in which to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors...your deepest fantasies and secrets. It's all about you. Together, we can find a way towards a happier, healthier, more satisfying, fulfilling life. Individual therapy is an effective and almost magical pathway towards achieving self-knowledge, peace of mind, improving your relationship with yourself and others, igniting creativity, alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression, healing from trauma, and gaining support during crises and transitions. With therapy, it is possible to achieve a more peaceful, balanced, and fulfilling life with healthier, more meaningful relationships.
I utilize a number of different strategies to help you reach your goals, including psychodynamic, intersubjective, existential, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution focused talk therapy, art therapy, and somatic therapy. The treatment is tailored to the individual.
Workshops
Group Therapy
Group therapy is a unique and wonderful experience which allows one to overcome anxiety, achieve increased comfort in social environments, alleviate symptoms of depression, and find support amongst your peers. Discover a sense of inner peace as you connect more genuinely and intimately with others. Identify patterns of behavior and learn new, more effective ways of managing stress and big emotions. Group therapy is a playground to try new ways of interacting with others while breaking free of subconscious or ingrained patterns.
Current groups include IVF Support Groups and Anxiety Management Skills Group for IVF Patients. If you're interested, please contact me for more information.
Workshops are a wonderful opportunity to either dip your toe into the world of self-healing and actualization or deepen your process of healing and self-discovery. They are a great addition to whatever other forms of therapy or self-care you are already engaging in.
Workshops are different than therapy. They offer a one time immersive and educational experience. You don't have to be a client to take part in a workshop.
I offer workshops throughout the year on mindfulness (adults and children), combating burn out, easing anxiety during fertility treatment, and attracting healthy relationships.

Consultations
Lectures
I have had the privilege of lecturing at various seminars, conferences, schools, and therapy training centers across California.
​
Lecture topics include mental health issues emerging from IVF mistakes, managing anxiety during IVF and fertility treatment, partner issues during IVF treatment, managing burnout, and mental health in the Entertainment Industry.
​
My personal experience with IVF and fertility treatment along with years of research and talking with hundreds of individuals going through fertility treatment has informed my sensitivities and understanding of this world. I'm glad to see more and more people discussing what was once considered taboo or secretive. The truth is that so many people suffer in silence without a proper support network. I am to provide that much needed support and understanding.
​
Prior to being a therapist, I worked for 15+ years in the Entertainment Industry. In my years as a therapist, I have developed a method of working with artists and Entertainment Industry professionals that has proven to be more effective and compassionate than many other mental health practitioners. As a result, I have been called upon repeatedly to consult, lecture, and supervise other therapists in their work with artists. It is something I love to do, as I have seen, by extension, hundreds and thousands of patients being helped using my methods.
If you are interested in booking a lecture, supervision, or training, please feel free to contact me. I am always happy to help.
As a part of my practice I offer consultations in several different ways.
I am available to supervise or consult with other medical or mental health practitioners, teachers, or attorneys.
I also have been hired to work within the Entertainment Industry by coaching performers, writers, and directors. I have been consulted with regarding character development to ensure that personality disorders, mental health disorders, and relational dynamics are presented in a natural and believable manner both in writing and on screen.
Additionally, I have been hired to come to sets or offices to help improve communication and relationships in various working environments. Such group work makes for a much more pleasant and productive environment in which to work. Imagine waking up and feeling excited to go to work rather than dreading it! Totally possible.
There's no one way to do therapy. However, there may be a particular treatment plan that works best for you. For that reason, I offer a number of different modalities in which to work. If you're not sure where to start, call me and we can discuss it further. Also, check out the options below for more information.
