I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 30 years of experience in psychotherapy, hospital-based mental health, and private practice. Over the course of my career, I have worked with adults facing a wide range of emotional, relational, medical, and life-transition challenges.

My style is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in genuine human connection. I believe effective therapy should feel both emotionally meaningful and practically useful. Some clients come to therapy seeking support during a difficult period in life, while others are looking for deeper self-understanding, healthier relationships, or more effective ways of managing stress, anxiety, depression, or substance use concerns.

In addition to private practice work, I have longstanding professional ties to Cedars-Sinai and extensive experience working within medical and mental health systems. These experiences continue to inform my practical, real-world approach to psychotherapy.

I work with adults and older adults across a wide range of concerns. I have particular experience supporting LGBTQ clients, people navigating substance use and recovery, and those carrying the emotional weight of medical illness, caregiving, and end-of-life care.

Sessions are held virtually and are available to clients throughout California. If meeting in person matters to you, please ask — I am happy to talk through the options.

I am now in network with several major insurance plans, and I continue to welcome private-pay clients.
