  Family is often our greatest source of love and support, but it can also be where we experience conflict, stress, or disconnection. When communication breaks down or relationships feel strained, it’s natural for families to struggle.   Family counseling   provides a safe and supportive environment where each member can be heard, understood, and respected. In Los Angeles, families have the opportunity to strengthen bonds, develop healthier communication, and find lasting solutions through therapy.

Family counseling (also called family therapy) is designed to help families navigate conflict, improve communication, and build stronger relationships. Rather than focusing on one “problem person,” therapy looks at the family as a system where everyone plays a role. Families often seek counseling for reasons such as: Constant arguments or tension at home Communication breakdowns and misunderstandings Par...

  Life can feel overwhelming at times. Whether it’s stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship struggles, many people find themselves stuck in patterns that don’t seem to change. Individual therapy offers a safe, supportive space to sort through these challenges and discover new ways forward. As a licensed therapist in Los Angeles, I bring a direct and grounded approach to therapy. My goal is to help you with the real, day-to-day issues you face while also exploring deeper patterns that may be shaping your life. Drawing from my training in psychodynamic therapy , I work with you to create both immediate relief and lasting change. What Is Individual Therapy? Individual therapy is a one-on-one process where you can talk openly about your thoughts, feelings, and struggles in a confidential environment. Unlike talking with friends or family, therapy provides professional support from someone trained to help you explore the root of challenges and develop healthier ways of cop...

  Every relationship experiences challenges. Even the most committed couples can face periods of tension, miscommunication, or emotional distance. In a fast-paced city like Los Angeles, the demands of work, family, and daily responsibilities can make it even harder to stay connected. When these stressors build up, small misunderstandings can turn into bigger issues, leaving partners feeling frustrated, unheard, or disconnected. Couples counseling  offers a safe space to explore these challenges, understand their root causes, and work together toward a stronger, more fulfilling relationship. As a  Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT, LPCC)  in Los Angeles, I help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen their emotional bond — so they can navigate life’s challenges as a team.

Finding your voice is more than just learning how to speak or sing well — it’s about connecting to your true self and expressing it fully. For singers, speakers, and performers, the voice is a deeply personal instrument. It’s tied to our identity, emotions, and sense of self-worth. Yet, when anxiety, self‑doubt, or past experiences interfere, even the most talented person can struggle to express themselves. That’s where my unique approach — combining voice coaching with therapy  — comes in. I work with individuals who want to break free from performance anxiety, stage fright, and self‑limiting beliefs, helping them rediscover their voice and their confidence. Understanding Performance Anxiety Performance anxiety is more than just “nerves.” It can feel like your body and mind are working against you at the very moment you want to shine. Common symptoms include: Racing heartbeat or shallow breathing Trembling hands or voice Difficulty remembering lyrics or lines A tight throat or straine...

Relationships — whether romantic, family, or friendships — are the foundation of a fulfilling life. But even the strongest relationships can experience tension, miscommunication, or emotional distance.

What Is Emotional Awareness? Emotional awareness is the ability to recognize, understand, and manage your emotions in real-time. It’s about noticing how you feel, why you feel that way, and how those feelings influence your behavior and interactions with others. Without emotional awareness, feelings often go unacknowledged and can manifest as frustration, irritability, or withdrawal. Many re...
