Hi! I offer individual therapy to California residents. I utilize an eclectic relational therapy style and specialize in working with adults who are creatives, artists, and/or the LGBTQIA+ community who are experiencing grief, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, personality disorders, entertainment business stress, substance, body image, disordered eating, and issues with sex, sexuality, trauma, chem-sex, inner child wounds, and body image by using exploratory harm reduction techniques. Connecting with satisfaction and contentment can lead to balance, fulfilling potential, discovering meaning, and joy.
I am trained in helping people recover from adverse experiences & trauma (direct/witness violence, sexual, spiritual, relational, mental, emotional) using CBT, DBT & EMDR. I enjoy helping clients with issues like sexual/romantic intimacy, modern & dynamic relationship styles, sex positivity, and connection with themselves & others.
Working in the entertainment business for decades as a creative has given me a unique & creative perception of life and helped me to have valuable perspective in helping clients; particularly those in the industry. Developing new ways to cope, evolve, and maintain thriving relationships can be challenging but ultimately is an opportunity to grow.
