Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Let me help you make choosing a therapist simple and easy. Come right into my office for a free 30 minute consultation. No obligation. This will give us both the opportunity to find out if I can help you. We can also get an idea how convenient my office and schedule is for you.

I have a deep passion for helping people work through some of life's greatest struggles. In my book, "Brain Surgeons Don't Do Facelifts", I've chronicled my personal journey through brain surgery, from first being diagnosed with a brain tumor to my full and present recovery. I coped, survived, and carried on - and I know you can too.

I also specialize in working with women who tend to be "givers" in relationships and loose themselves in the process. I act as a guide directing you forward in your journey towards personal growth, enriched relationships, and achieving the happiness you deserve. I have helped many women recognize the roots of their struggles while learning new skills to better cope with their challenges.

Remember: You are not alone. I am here to help

Please email me or, call now to book your free consultation at (310) 902-1554

I look forward to hearing from you!
