Description
I am a licensed Psychotherapist in Private Practice in West Los Angeles. Before becoming a therapist. I worked more than 20 years as a Research Scientist/Neurobiologist and Professor teaching graduate and medical students at UCLA and other institutions outside of California. In addition to counseling people, I taught Psychology Graduate Courses as Adjunct Faculty at Pepperdine University for 5 years. I now typically work with individual clients, on issues associated with school, marriage, child-rearing, family conflict, career, trauma, death, break-ups, divorce, depression, panic and many other factors that may come up.
Theoretical perspectives and therapeutic interventions I might use with a client is matched and adjusted as necessary to resonate with his/her/their mental health issues and needs during the course of the therapeutic relationship. Therapeutic perspectives and interventions used in my practice are based upon evidence-based psychological constructs and the underlying biological processes that impact personality development, emotional and behavioral responses to distress and other factors that can affect feelings of well-being and satisfaction with one’s life and relationships with others.
I currently offer tele therapy only.
