I’m someone who truly listens and strives to meet each person exactly where they are. My style is adaptive, reflective, and flexible. I bring authenticity, compassion, and a good sense of humor into my work because I believe that laughter and honesty can be just as healing as insight. I was inspired to become a therapist by my own desire for the kind of support I would have wanted, and I aim to offer that same understanding and care to my clients. People often describe me as warm, genuine, and empowering. I am someone who helps them feel deeply heard and supported while encouraging growth in meaningful ways.

Therapist

Virtual • California


Many people come to therapy carrying pain that is difficult to put into words. You may understand why you're struggling, yet still find yourself repeating the same patterns, feeling stuck in painful relationships, grieving losses, or wondering why lasting change feels out of reach. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, infertility, trauma, stress, family concerns, maternal mental health challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients are thoughtful, insightful people who want more than temporary relief, they want to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we'll explore the experiences, relationships, and emotional patterns that have shaped your life while building greater self-awareness and self-compassion. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen your relationships, and create a life that feels more connected, purposeful, and authentic.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Los Angeles

Finding the right couples therapist in Los Angeles starts with understanding what you and your partner need. Couples therapy can address a range of concerns — from communication patterns and trust to navigating major life transitions together. Licensed providers may use approaches like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, or cognitive behavioral techniques, depending on your situation and goals. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they feel like a good match for both of you.

With thousands of licensed therapists practicing across Los Angeles — from Silver Lake and Echo Park to Santa Monica, Century City, and the South Bay — narrowing your options can feel like a project in itself. Consider what matters most: whether a provider specializes in the concerns you're facing, offers virtual or in-person sessions, and has availability that works with both of your schedules. A free phone consultation can also help you and your partner assess fit before committing to a first session.

Couples therapy in Los Angeles can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a couples therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
