About Me

I help clients explore emotional issues by looking at how early experiences shape current feelings. We use psychological techniques to uncover past conflicts, helping you develop deeper insight into your current patterns. This approach is ideal for those seeking to understand the root causes of their struggles. I aim to help you make lasting sense of your inner world, fostering a path to greater emotional freedom.

Approach

By tracing how past relationships echo in present feelings, I focus therapy on gently uncovering repeating patterns and the scenes that sustain them. Sessions in my Beverly Hills office or online, with Spanish available, move at a deliberate, tolerable pace—attentive listening followed by targeted reflections and questions. We track moments of feeling, connect them to early relational scenes, and use interpretation plus small between-session experiments to loosen automatic responses. This steady, exploratory rhythm tends to help people facing relationship pain, trauma, cross-cultural strain, or mood difficulties.
