About

I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist in the Claremont, California, in the Los Angeles area. I also see clients from throughout California over video.

In addition to my traditional therapy clients, I provide preparation and integration services for individuals and couples who are working with psychedelics / entheogens / plant medicines or are considering doing so. I offer support for harm reduction, setting intentions, developing grounding practices, and integrating insights acquired during ceremony. I provide a supportive framework to explore and expand your understanding and relationship with transpersonal and visionary experiences.

Psychedelic research is a subject area that I am passionate about. I have completed MAPS’ Zendo training and regularly present lectures about psychedelics to Marriage and Family Therapy graduate students.

How I work with clients

I connect with my clients with warmth and curiosity as a friendly co-investigator of the issues they're facing.

Treatment approach

Therapy with me frequently feels like a conversation but I am also comfortable holding space for deeper work. I attend to the energy in the room and help to shape it into whatever is needed. I approach this work with flexibility, creativity, gratitude, joy, and humility.
