Empathetic, nonjudgmental, present, and kind. I am deeply curious and genuinely interested in my clients' lives. Humor is also very important to me.

I look at how systems - individually, relationally, societally, spiritually - impact us and how we view ourselves and the world. Social justice is of great value to me, and I am inspired by Buddhist and eastern philosophies and the natural world.

Practice being with the uncomfortable and the unknown and learning ways to accept ourselves through it. Find areas of growth, strength and values, even in the places where you feel stuck. Increase connection to the larger world (like nature & spirit)

Are itching to discover a sense of purpose in an overwhelming world, who are hungry for insights about themselves, who want to engage in meaningful action in their lives, who think existentially, and are in relationship distress (couples therapy).

I will never forget the first time I felt fully seen by another person in a completely nonjudgmental way. I developed a new way of looking at myself.

I offer therapy at multiple locations (Pasadena, Beverly Hills, Santa Clarita, and telehealth), and I also offer therapy outdoors.
