I was trained by the Southern California Counseling Center, where I counseled individuals, couples, and families, as well as co-led the Teen Violence Prevention group, The Children Affected by Domestic Violence group, and was the director of the Parenting Education program.  I am also fully trained to provide EMDR therapy.

 

I work with adult survivors of childhood abuse (including incest/sexual abuse, physical, and emotional abuse) as well as young adults, especially those struggling with inter-generational cultural conflicts. I also counsel and educate first-time parents and parents of young children, offering parenting ideas to support healthy emotional development.

​

Prior to working as a psychotherapist, I held a variety of positions in the creative industries of Los Angeles, and have a firsthand knowledge of the stressful nature of this kind of work.
