Do you work with both individuals and couples?

Yes. I provide individual therapy for women and couples therapy for partners who want to strengthen their relationship. If you’re unsure which type of therapy is the best fit, we can talk through it during your free consultation.

Do you offer online sessions?

Yes. Sessions are available in person in Studio City and online throughout California and Colorado, so you can meet in whatever way fits your life and schedule.

What issues do you help with?

I work with women struggling with relationship anxiety, self-worth, attachment wounds, people-pleasing, emotional regulation, and difficult relationship patterns. I also work with couples experiencing conflict, communication difficulties, disconnection, trust concerns, or recurring cycles they can’t seem to break.

How do I know whether individual or couples therapy makes more sense?

If the primary goal is improving your relationship together, couples therapy is usually the best fit because both partners are part of the change process. If you’re working on your own relationship patterns, self-worth, anxiety, or healing after difficult relationships, individual therapy may be a better place to start. If you’re unsure, we can decide together during a consultation.

How do I get started?

Reach out to schedule a free consultation. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, answer your questions, and decide together on the right next step.

Do you accept insurance or private pay?

For individual therapy, I offer private pay sessions at $175 per 50-minute session. For couples therapy, I offer private pay only at $225 per 60-minute session. This allows us to focus fully on the relationship work itself without the restrictions that can sometimes come with insurance-based treatment.

EFT is an evidence-based approach grounded in attachment science. It helps couples understand the emotional patterns underneath their conflict and reshape them, so you can move toward a more secure, connected bond.
