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

My Approach to Helping

In a word, my approach to psychotherapy is about integration-- integration of mind and body, integration of one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, one's hopes, dreams and expectations, and on and on.
Very often, we feel cut off from parts of ourselves. Maybe relationships are eluding us, or perhaps our careers aren't as fulfilling as we'd hoped. Sometimes there's some sort of symptom of this disconnect; either a feeling of sadness, or of being lost, or maybe we feel nothing at all. It can happen any number of ways, specific to each one of us.
Therapy, in my understanding, is best used to explore these rifts and begin to reintegrate on new terms, namely on ones which allow us to live in integrity with our true selves. As such, I use a variety of different techniques and draw from numerous theories and sources to find what will work best for each person.

 

More Info About My Practice

I offer both individual and couples therapy in Los Feliz and surrounding areas.

In order to provide the most meaningful, relevant, comforting services, I not only keep traditional office hours, I also offer private sessions either in-home, at work, or at some other more convenient location for my clients.

While some people may feel comfortable in an office setting, many people's schedules make it impossible to access services during business hours. For that reason, among others, I'm bringing back the house call. Please contact me for more information.
