Online Therapy & In-Person Therapy in Los Angeles

Therapy for men, high achievers, and creatives navigating the unique pressures of life in LA.

Therapy for Life in Los Angeles

Los Angeles runs on ambition, image, and reinvention. It's a city that rewards performance, and that performance comes at a cost. Whether you're in the entertainment industry, building a business, or simply trying to live an authentic life in a city that thrives on appearances, therapy can help you cut through the noise.

My office is in Hermosa Beach, and I also offer secure online therapy for clients across Los Angeles and the greater LA area. With over 15 years in the entertainment industry before becoming a therapist, I understand the specific pressures of life in this city, not theoretically, but from experience.

Yes. I spent over 15 years in the entertainment industry before becoming a therapist. I understand the specific pressures of creative careers, public visibility, financial instability, and the emotional toll of building something in an industry that's built on rejection.
Research shows both are equally effective. Some clients prefer the ritual of coming to an office. Others prefer the convenience of online sessions. We can discuss what works best for you during an initial consultation.
I'm a private-pay practice. I can provide superbills for potential out-of-network reimbursement. This keeps sessions fully confidential with no third-party oversight.
