I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist practicing in West Los Angeles. I have received my master's degree in Clinical Psychology (M.A.) from Pepperdine University and my doctorate degree in Applied Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.) from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I have over ten years of experience working with children, adults, and families.

I view effective psychotherapy as a collaborative process with one of the most important aspects being the genuine connection between the client and therapist. I strive to create a safe place where my clients feel accepted and understood, and can get in touch with their true needs and desires. Using a supportive and non-judgmental approach, I help clients identify what might be holding them back in achieving their goals. Being certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I often use components of this technique when working with clients who are dealing with trauma or stress-related issues.

Along with my private practice, I serve as the Clinical Coordinator of a non-profit community based mental health agency, providing supervision and training to associate therapists. In addition, I am part of a private college as Adjunct Faculty, teaching graduate level courses focusing on clinical skills.
