About Me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW #77273) located in West Los Angeles, CA. I provide individual therapy and consultation in my private practice. I work with teens and adults of all genders. I am Bi+. As a bi+ therapist, I have a unique appreciation for the bravery it takes to remain curious about yourself and live authentically. When we truly know ourselves, we can live our lives more intentionally and with a sense of empowerment.

 

Specialties

 

Bisexual+ Mental Health

Bi+ is an umbrella term that is inclusive of different kinds of attractions to people with a range of gender identities. Bi+ includes the pansexual, m-spec, and non-monosexual communities. Although we are a majority, we can be an invisible majority. Bi+ community can have their own challenges coming out, feeling ownership in the Bi+ identity, and feeling a larger sense of belonging to the LGBTQ+ community.

Anxiety

Do you feel like your anxiety is holding you back? Do you feel challenged by relationships because it's difficult to show up as yourself, be vulnerable, or assertive? Do you find yourself playing small to fit others’ expectations? You may have a pattern of losing yourself in relationships (friends, family, or romantic) and want to explore why this happens. Imagine feeling grounded in your sense of self and confident in your ability to be your full self with everyone.

Self-Esteem

Don’t let your low self-esteem take over. Let’s examine this, so you can develop self-compassion and become free to explore and expand. You are worthy.
