It might feel like a funny question— and yet, such a natural one. Psychotherapy is a collaborative process that helps individuals better understand their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and patterns, and develop skills to cope more effectively with life’s challenges. Therapy can support emotional well-being, stress management, relationship concerns, health-related challenges, and personal growth.

I provide evidence-based psychotherapy grounded in health psychology for adults in Los Angeles, California, and New York.

Many people seek therapy when they feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally distressed, or are navigating changes related to health, work, relationships, or identity.

If you’re unsure whether therapy is a good fit, an initial consultation can help clarify goals and determine whether working together makes sense.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing:

• Chronic illness and chronic pain

• Stress, anxiety, and burnout

• Sleep and insomnia concerns

• Health-related adjustment and identity changes

• Mind–body concerns and medical stress

My work integrates CBT, ACT, mindfulness-based approaches, relaxation training, and health psychology principles.

It depends largely on the person I’m working with.

Sessions are structured, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. Therapy may include discussion, psychoeducation, skills-building, and in-session practice of tools such as mindfulness or relaxation techniques.

The pace and focus of therapy are guided by your goals, values, and readiness.

Yes. All therapy sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. I provide telehealth psychotherapy to clients located in Los Angeles, throughout California, and New York.

Telehealth therapy is well-supported by research and allows for flexible, accessible care.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in California and New York, and I provide psychotherapy to clients physically located in those states at the time of session.

The length of therapy varies depending on individual goals and needs.

Some people seek short-term, skills-focused therapy, while others engage in longer-term work. I have extensive experience within both brief and longer-term psychotherapy models; it really depends on you and your needs.

This can be discussed collaboratively and revisited over time; typically it is a focus of our initial intake and treatment planning sessions.

Yes. Therapy is confidential, with limits required by law. These include situations involving risk of harm to yourself or others, suspected abuse or neglect of a child, elder, or dependent adult, or if records are legally subpoenaed.

It’s important to know that these limits to confidentiality operate differently between CA and NY.

You’re welcome to ask questions about confidentiality at any point, and we will discuss this in the informed consent process when first initiating services.

Yes. I offer time-limited, skills-based group therapy, including the Living Well with Chronic Illness Group, which is designed as an adjunct to individual therapy.

Group therapy offerings vary by availability and enrollment period.

Yes. Group therapy is designed as adjunctive support and not a replacement for individual psychotherapy or crisis services. Participants are required to have an established individual therapist or psychiatrist while enrolled in group therapy, and will be given an agreement form to have their primary mental health provider sign, prior to being enrolled in the group.
