Before entering private practice, I worked as a therapist in the Los Angeles area. At various hospital programs, I worked with patients dealing with mental illness and addiction. At counseling centers, I worked with children, teens, and adults with a variety of issues. In schools, working as both a therapist and behaviorist, I worked with children displaying a variety of behavioral and emotional issues.
Staying current with new psychotherapeutic practices and exploring new avenues of therapy is one of my priorities. In addition to my therapy license and all trainings pertaining to psychotherapy, I have also become a certified mediator, incorporating this skill-set into my couples work. In addition, I am a certified 200 hour level yoga instructor.
