Hello and welcome to my website. You may be considering therapy for a variety of reasons. You may have experienced a traumatic event or you may be experiencing a crisis in your relationship. Perhaps you wish to develop more effective parenting skills or a better relationship with your child. You may find yourself facing a divorce and want to be sure to make the best possible choices for you and/or your child going forward on your new path in life. I hope this site helps you make the best decision about engaging in psychotherapy or divorce counseling, or about seeking consultation for parenting concerns.
I earned a Doctor of Psychology degree from the California School of Professional Psychology in 1995, and completed two years of postdoctoral training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at the Wright Institute Los Angeles. I also received training in child custody evaluations. I’ve worked in children’s residential facilities, a college counseling center, community mental health clinics, private mental health clinics,and in private practice settings in Los Angeles, Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, California. I am trained in divorce mediation, which allows families to avoid the trauma of child custody disputes, litigation and judge determined outcomes.
I believe that asking for help when one is feeling most vulnerable is both an act of courage and a sign of emotional health. I have immense respect for those willing to seek help for their most deeply personal, private and precious matters. Choosing someone to work with in therapy is an important decision. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have as you consider your options.
