BECAUSE raising happy little humans can be HARD

We can help you connect your past to your present so you can become your best parent self.

There are countless self-help books and instagram “experts” telling you what you should do - but none of them know you, or your child. Maybe the advice isn’t resonating with you, maybe you’ve tried it before and it hasn’t helped, or maybe it’s the advice itself that’s fueling the feeling that you are not enough, that you are not doing this right.

You’re lacking confidence. You’re comparing yourself to others and feeling like you’re coming up short. You worry you yell too much, or don’t set boundaries enough, or that you aren’t fully addressing your child’s emotional needs.

So much is coming up about your own childhood and your relationship to your own family, and it’s all feeling muddled. You can’t find your inner parenting voice through the noise. You’re recognizing you need help unpacking it all so you can show up as the best parent you can be.

how it works

We’re here to help you quiet the noise to find your inner parenting voice.

We understand that parenting, particularly in this time and climate, is hard. We’re here to provide compassionate, effective and personalized parenting support to navigate the expectations and realities of parenthood.

Therapy for parenting issues is focused on helping you become the best parent you can be. We’ll help you understand how your own family and childhood impacts your parenting so you can make conscious choices about what you want to keep, and what you want to leave behind. With a focus on combining insight-oriented and tools-based therapies like psychodynamic, attachment and cognitive behavioral therapy, our therapy seeks to provide practical guidance to create family harmony while helping you connect the dots from your past to your present. 

We believe parenting work has the power to change you, your family system, and future generations. We’ll help you tune in to your own parental instinct and tune out the noise around you. We’ll break down the familial, societal and cultural factors impacting your views on what a parent should be, so you can become the parent you truly want to be.

It’s time for you to work together to best support your kids

Even when parents end their spousal partnership, the parenting relationship remains. We offer co-parenting support for those who are navigating parenting together through a separation or divorce. Co-parenting work looks different depending on each family’s unique circumstances, but typically emphasis is on re-establishing boundaries and roles, finding effective ways to parent as a team, and developing healthy and respectful communication (both with each other and your children). If you are struggling with this transition and how to move forward as co-parents, we can help. There are a few formats of how we can work together to support you on your co-parenting journey: 

  • With a traditional therapy structure, we would meet once a week for 50-minute sessions. Ongoing therapy creates space for processing at a consistent, steady pace. This is best for couples who are in the process of separating or recently divorced and looking to fully address this transition and all the changes it entails, both to your personal and parenting relationship. 

  • Intensives offer extended time in the therapeutic process, allowing for rapid results. 3 hour, 1 day and 2 day options are available. Intensive therapy is a great option if you are looking to create a comprehensive co-parenting plan or navigate a specific challenge area or upcoming change. You can learn more about intensive therapy here.

  • Adjunctive co-parenting therapy is a common referral from divorce mediators or other therapists. If your divorce mediator or therapist has encouraged co-parenting therapy as an adjunctive support, we can help. Adjunctive work can occur via ongoing or intensive therapy.

    We offer a limited number of sliding scale spots for those with financial need.

  • We are a private pay practice and do not accept health insurance. However, I can provide monthly superbills for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Please check with your provider to understand your benefits, as coverage varies by plan.

  • Your therapist reserves your appointment time just for you. Sessions canceled or rescheduled with less than 48 hours notice will be charged the full session fee unless rescheduled within the same business week. Availability for rescheduling is not guaranteed.

  • We offer both in-person sessions and HIPAA-compliant Telehealth sessions for residents of California. Our offices are located in Hermosa Beach and Beverly Hills.

    75 and 90 minute sessions are also available for couples.

  • While this is unique to each person, the kind of therapy we do is an investment - but it is an investment in yourself and your future. It is not a bandaid or a quick fix and many clients are in therapy with us for six months or longer. This is because we are doing deeper work to create real, lasting change.
