Online Psychotherapy for Teens, Adults, Couples & Families in California

Psychodynamic, relational, and somatic psychotherapy for the places where insight alone has not been enough.

You may recognize your patterns clearly and still find yourself returning to them—or sense that the ways you once learned to cope, relate, or protect yourself no longer fit the life you’re becoming.

Genuine connection, recognition, and attunement are central to my approach to psychotherapy. I believe meaningful change develops through a collaborative therapeutic relationship in which you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected. Together, we attend to thought, emotion, the body, relationships, and the ways earlier experiences continue to shape the present—not to reduce experience to a diagnosis, but to create greater room for self-understanding, choice, and meaningful change.

Understanding the pattern is not always the same as being free from it.

You may already have insight into yourself. You may know where certain patterns began, recognize what happens in relationships, or understand why anxiety, self-protection, overthinking, disconnection, or old ways of coping appear. And still, knowing can only take us so far.

Therapy offers a place to experience yourself differently—not by overriding what is there, but by becoming more able to recognize it, stay in relationship with it, and discover what becomes possible when you no longer have to organize your life around the same familiar responses.

This is where depth-oriented work becomes experiential. We listen not only to what you say, but to what emerges through emotion, the body, relationship, and the moments that are harder to put into words.

Psychodynamic, Relational & Somatic Psychotherapy

My approach brings together psychodynamic, relational, and somatic psychotherapy with evidence-based practices. Rather than applying one method to every person, our work develops in relationship to who you are, what you are experiencing, and what becomes meaningful as we work together.

We may explore how earlier experiences continue to shape the present, notice patterns as they emerge within relationships, and pay attention to what the body communicates alongside thought and language. Practical tools can be important, but they are held within a larger process of understanding—not used as a substitute for it.

The aim is not to become a perfected version of yourself. It is to develop greater recognition, flexibility, and a more genuine relationship with your own experience. Central to this process is a therapeutic relationship grounded in genuine connection, precise attunement, and recognition of your individuality.

How I Work:

Therapy for Teens, Adults, Couples & Families

People rarely arrive in therapy as a collection of symptoms. What appears as anxiety, conflict, disconnection, over-functioning, or difficulty communicating often belongs to something larger—a way of relating, protecting, adapting, or making sense of experience that developed over time.

I work with teens and adults individually, as well as couples and families, with attention to both the person and the relationships that shape their lives. Our work may include anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, ADHD and neurodivergence, attachment and relationship patterns, identity, grief and loss, family dynamics, stress, and significant life transitions.

Whether we are working individually or together, we can address what is creating difficulty now while remaining curious about the larger experience it belongs to. The aim is not simply to resolve a symptom or conflict, but to create greater capacity for recognition, communication, connection, and meaningful change.

Therapy begins by making space for what has been asking for your attention—and discovering your own way of meeting it.
