I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCS No. 75761) in private practice in Los Angeles, CA. I received a B.A. from the University of California at Los Angeles and a Master’s Degree in Social Work from New York University. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), an evidence-based practice for treating individuals who have experienced traumatic events. I work primarily with adolescents and young adults to process past trauma and manage present life stressors, guiding individuals on a journey of self-discovery. I also help couples and families to repair attachment disruptions manifesting in their relationships to each other and those around them, as well as to themselves.
