We all have the innate capacity to heal ourselves and to grow into who we are meant to be. However, this natural process can be thwarted by various social influences, traumas, or seemingly unresolvable personality challenges. Psychotherapy is a framework that can help heal internal wounds and offer new perspectives on life's journey. As a psychologist, I serve as a guide on this inner journey to help you become more conscious of your latent processes and to tap back into your inherent resources.

​

With an integrative approach, I see adults, adolescents & families who are navigating various concerns and symptoms, such as emotional turbulence, addictions, relational challenges, adjusting to a major life transition. I specialize in treating various types of trauma with somatically informed, body-oriented psychotherapies. These modalities can include: somatic experiencing (SE), eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR), depth work, brainspotting, parts work, safe and sound protocol (SSP) & ketamine assisted psychotherapy (KAP). In my practice, I find that supporting the underlying trauma and core wounds, via the somatic system, an individual can best access healing, regardless of the symptoms.   

​

I value the importance of understanding each client individually and utilizing the tools that will most benefit one's unique needs. Clients have described how our work together promotes their ability to deepen inner awareness and to experience more vitality and a greater sense of harmony within and around themselves.

I meet with clients remotely and in-person in Malibu and Calabasas. (At this time, a PCH driving pass is still required to visit the Malibu office.) Women's KAP group rotates between the Malibu office and an office in Palos Verdes Estates. Please read more about my practice, as well as my associate who offers services remotely. Feel free to contact me with any inquiries. I look forward to hearing from you.
