About My Clients
Have your mind and body been interrupting the life you wish to lead? Perhaps anxiety or panic keeps you from things important to you. Maybe intrusive thoughts or compulsive actions make you afraid of what could come. Or you simply have no energy to deal with any of this. These issues can be annoying, stressful, or even debilitating - but they can also be helped through our work together. You (or your child!) can get through this, and I look forward to the chance to guide you along the way.
My Background and Approach
My approach focuses on providing evidence-based treatments that go beyond robotically following "manuals." I strive to build and maintain a true and empathetic connection as we work together on the tools to manage your life. My primary approaches include strategies from ACT, DBT, and CBT, with certified expertise as a Diplomate of the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies. My education includes Stanford, Pepperdine, and UCLA with work across a wide range of ages, populations, and disorders. I have practiced in renowned inpatient and outpatient settings, including the Harbor-UCLA Outpatient Clinic; UCLA Pediatric OCD Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP); NYU Langone Child Study Center; Bellevue Hospital (NYC); and the OCD & Anxiety Program of Southern California. Depending on your needs, I offer a variety of treatment intensities, including standard outpatient sessions, intensive outpatient (IOP) treatments, and at-home sessions to help you or your loved one overcome and thrive.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have an undying sweet tooth and feel that humor remains undervalued in healing and life as a whole. More importantly, I believe strongly in building, maintaining, and elevating the voices of marginalized communities across all ages, genders, sexual orientations, and ethnicities. I hold that it is critical to recognize and explore the intersectionality of identity, society, culture, and mental health, and I strive to meet you in understanding as we work through these pieces together.
