Online Therapists in Los Angeles

You have taken the first step in breaking the hold of emotional stress, trauma, and unwanted burden you carry by reaching out. By allowing yourself to get support and begin this work you are already creating an opening to new ways of living and feeling within yourself.

This space we create and that you are investing in will create a ripple effect through all areas of your life and create the change you have been seeking in a safe and open space of expression and validation. You can bring all of you to this process!

Deciding to enter therapy can be a challenging decision. The idea of talking about things that you may be struggling to understand yourself can feel daunting and intimidating.

People often ask, “how does therapy work?” Well, much of our daily life is rushed and focused on the needs of others. Therapy is a space that gives you the opportunity to focus on yourself. It’s a time where you can slow down, process, and make sense of the parts of your life that feel messy or cause stress.

By sharing my understanding of your concerns with the respect and thoughtfulness that it deserves, I hope to not only help you find insight and relief from these stressors, but achieve more gratifying relationships with yourself and others.

Choosing a therapist is an important decision, and the right fit is essential for meeting your therapeutic goals. I’m happy to provide complimentary phone consultations to answer any questions you might have, and see if I’m the right person to be of help to you.

While we are all struggling in these uncertain times, I am continuing to provide teletherapy as well as remote neurofeedback. If you are struggling with Anxiety, Depression, loneliness, grief, loss of job, or any other issues relating to the global pandemic, please do reach out as I am here to help you navigate your way through.

I am committed to working with first responders and those on the front lines in order to manage the extreme stress and accompanying issues related to treating this disease. I am also fully available to those wanting to start or continue peak performance work, especially those who are not able to train in their regular spaces right now. Now is the perfect time to work on strengthening your mental performance skills!

Searching for a therapist holds such promise, but is also pretty scary – so I don’t envy you in this task. Find one that holds the right balance of competence and human decency, and who you feel you can resonate with. It looks to me that there are a lot of good people on this site… find the right one for you.

Today, you are one step closer to a new you – in which you feel empowered, and on a positive path to unlocking deeply personal growth and well-being.

My approach is integrative and tailored to your needs and preferences. Our work can be considered a partnership designed to foster your growth, one where you'll have feedback and tools available to help you work towards your best self. We’ll draw from skills-based orientations, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), as well as more trauma-informed models like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Mindfulness is key to our work as well, and you'll strengthen the ability to view the world around you with curiosity rather than judgment, thereby decreasing the neurological “fight or flight” response that can cause anxiety.

I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space in which we can work together to identify, understand, and reshape any beliefs and behavior patterns that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I encourage you to reach out to determine whether we're a fit, and look forward to hearing from you.

In this busy, face-paced world, where we are inundated by information and so much is asked of us by our jobs, relationships, families and communities, I’ve found it is incredibly beneficial (but often difficult) to prioritize time for oneself. Therapy offers a chance to give yourself a pause, to slow down, to reconnect with yourself, and to take a deeper look at your experience within a safe and supportive environment.

For many, simply making the decision to seek therapy is a major first step, and one you can feel proud of. Life can certainly have its peaks and valleys, and throughout it all, therapy can help one navigate these experiences. In sessions, we will work together and at your own pace. I will support you in facing issues that feel painful, overwhelming or confusing, and to make meaning of these experiences. I will help you access your own internal strength and resilience as you take steps in the healing process and in the challenging, yet rewarding, journey of change.

Finding a good fit with a therapist can sometimes take a little time and effort. I encourage you to reach out with any questions you may have about me or the therapeutic process, and to see if we might be a good match.

The therapeutic relationship is one of the leading proponents of change in the work that we do. Yes, concrete tools are necessary, but without the solid relationship foundation, the tools are not as impactful to the therapy process. I view the therapeutic relationship as an opportunity for us to examine a relationship closely in order to associate what happens between us to patterns/tendencies that occur for you elsewhere in other settings. In my approach to treatment, I am authentic, warm, understanding, and non-judgmental. I take a collaborative approach in helping you rediscover yourself and gain a better understanding of your experiences on both a cognitive and emotional level. We will work together to put our insight and curiosity into action by slowly shifting deeply engrained patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you. Doing so will allow us to make space for new shifts to unfold and the reduction of distressing symptoms that are preventing you from thriving in life.

My views are holistic in that I believe a multitude of various factors impact our overall wellbeing and therefore need to be examined. This includes how we nourish ourselves, movement, spiritual beliefs and practices, social connections, biological factors, creative outlets, thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Humans are so complex and dynamic that no single approach is going to suit every healing process. This is why I draw from a variety of different modalities including psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, humanistic, and cognitive-based approaches. I pride myself in my curiosity and honoring of various cultural backgrounds and practices. You are the expert in yourself and I am here to learn alongside of you and get curious about what you bring into our sessions.

Are you feeling more anxious, stressed or on edge lately? Does work/life balance seem impossible to find? Going through a life transition that you are looking for support with? Have you experienced trauma that you are ready to heal from? I would love the opportunity to help and support you getting over this hill to find the peace and joy you are seeking and deserve! I am passionate about helping others find tools to reaching inner peace and healing.

I am a trained psychotherapist that has been in the field of counseling for 14+ years. I work with teens and adults, as well as can provide treatment in Spanish. I have a calm and inviting demeanor, and tailor my practice to YOUR needs and goals. I look forward to working with you to improve your overall quality of life.

This is a great first step into getting what you want out of life.  It is so important to feel you have found someone with whom you can speak openly and freely. During our free initial consultation, I’ll answer any questions you have about therapy and explore what methods might be appropriate for you given your situation. The most important part of therapy is recognizing that you are on the right track to making progress towards your goals.

We’ll go over your goals and desires and how to evaluate reaching them. In the process, you’ll experience my style as a therapist and my commitment to helping you reach your personal therapy goals.

Difficulties do not have to hold us back. I work with my clients to transform their setbacks into constructive, empowering, life enhancing experiences. I provide therapy for creating permanent change in the way a person handles challenges and help them to find solutions for reaching their goals.

Welcome! I understand how difficult it is to be open with a stranger, and my number one goal is to create a space that allows for the natural and comfortable unfolding of your experience. I know that the process of therapy can be challenging and I’m here to provide you with the tools necessary so that you can meet challenges with strength, courage, and a plan.

I love working with individuals from all walks of life and I’m interested in your identity, cultural background and how that shapes the world around you and your relationships.

The uniqueness of your circumstance will be honored and respected. With compassion and collaboration, I can help you tap into your own inner wisdom about what is right for you so that you can begin making more fulfilling choices.
