About Me

I grew up on the East Coast and moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in writing. My journey eventually led me to a men’s therapy group where I experienced the transformative power of this work. It was during this time that I discovered my desire to help others uncover their potential and strength. Having been a client, I know what it’s like to struggle and to be unsure of yourself and your relationships.  I also know what it’s like to grow, heal, and benefit from this work, and I’m grateful to have the opportunity to help my clients realize the goals they set for themselves in therapy.

 

I have experience working with diverse communities and individuals throughout Los Angeles and, thanks to telehealth, California. I’ve worked in a family service agency, a private practice, and a high school care center. I enjoy working with individuals of all ages, but especially teens, pre-teens, and adults.

I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University of Los Angeles and a Bachelor of Science from Boston University.  In my former life, I was a McDonald’s cashier and line cook, a legal assistant, a filmmaker, and a production assistant and editor for the National Basketball Association. I believe my experience in these different fields enhances my ability to connect with individuals from varying walks of life.

 

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, cooking, traveling, playing soccer, watching my Eagles and Sixers, and spending time with family and friends.
