I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Art Therapist.  Having received my BA in History and Art History from UCLA, I worked in the corporate world for nearly 20 years before changing careers and earning my MA in Psychology with a specialization in Art Therapy.  Prior to starting my own private practice, I worked as a school counselor and as a psychotherapist in a community counseling center.  I have also been an adjunct faculty member in the Art Therapy program at Phillips Graduate Institute teaching grad students about client treatment, trauma-informed therapy, and research writing. 

 

I truly love what I do because I get the opportunity to help my clients recognize and build upon their own unique strengths.  I believe that everyone has the ability to not need therapy - seriously.  However, sometimes we have to go to therapy to find those tools again. We all deserve to live life on our own terms, and therapy can help us do that. 

​

I provide individual therapy and couples therapy with a specialization in the following areas:

​

• Depression

• Anxiety

• Trauma

• Self-Esteem

• Relationships
