I have been a licensed psychotherapist --first as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and now also as a Licensed Clinical Psychologist --  for more than 20 years, and I have been a proud member of LAGPA since its inception.  Over the years it has been my privilege to develop several specializations through which I think I can help our community:  Working with couples; working toward self-actualization and personal growth; sex therapy and sexual health; helping those who are recovering from some trauma or difficult passage earlier in their lives.  I work collaboratively with clients to help them make decisions that will help them feel grounded and empowered.
