Couples & Relationship Specialist for Anxious & Driven Individuals in Los Feliz, CA
Less over thinking, more living.
I am tired of constant racing thoughts or mental overdrive — overanalyzing interactions, fear of disappointed others or being understood.
There’s been a shift. My partner and I are fighting more than connecting. I feel like roommates, and the passion and romance is off.
I’ve done everything to climb the corporate ladder, but feel so unsatisfied. No amount of vacation can fix the burn out that is knocking on my door, and I am realizing maybe the golden handcuffs aren’t worth it
I don’t feel settled, even when things are technically okay.
I can’t sleep and the chronic mental stress is making my body break down, I am getting sick and I feel low mood and energy more than every before.

You get things done — but you’re also anxious, overloaded, and wondering why everything feels so heavy. You hmay have the hard skills and I am here to teach you the soft skills that actually make you and your life FEEL how you thought it would… at this point.
Here’s what we do together:
• Get clear on what’s stressing you out
• Learn emotional tools that actually make daily life easier
• Build confidence and self- efficacy, not perfectionism

I’m practical, supportive, and slightly sarcastic in the best way
Think of me as someone who helps you work smarter — not harder — in your life, your mind, and your body.

Let’s cut through the noise
-
Never Basic
As a second-generation “spiritual/wellness type,” not much fazes me and I have a strong bs detector for fluffy, consumer-driven, pseudo-spiritual advice. While I’m deeply spiritual and holistic at heart, clients value my grounded, practical approach.
-
Deeply Relational
We are wounded in relationship, and we heal in relationship. I believe one solid connection can transform how someone experiences themselves. I’m a “relationship type,” and clients value my warmth.
-
Whole Body Health
I focus on holistic wellness, addressing the interconnected aspects of physical, mental, and emotional health. Through personalized practices, I help clients achieve tailored balance and well-being.
-
Fully Remote
Between traffic, travel, and parenthood, modern life is busy. Remote therapy means you can show up from anywhere, in the comfort of your own space, with the same presence and connection you’d expect in person.
