About

I am Licensed in California as a Marriage and Family Therapist (#158768).

I received my MA in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles and completed my undergraduate studies at UCLA. I trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy during my clinical internship at Valley Community Counseling Clinic, in North Hollywood. I completed two years of postgraduate certification in Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at the New Center for Psychoanalysis. I have extensive experience working with OCD presentations across the lifespan and received specialized training and supervision on OCD and mood disorders at Community West, an outpatient mental health treatment center for teens and young adults in West LA.

I am a current member of both the Los Angeles Institute and Society for Psychoanalytic Studies and the New Center for Psychoanalysis. In addition to my private practice, I work as a group therapist at Community West, where I facilitate process groups, creative arts groups, and psychoeducation groups on OCD and depression and anxiety management. I currently serve on the board of directors at Valley Community Counseling Clinic.

As a musician with a background in experimental voice and physical theater, I bring with me a longstanding appreciation for listening and responding from many levels.
