My communication style

My communication style is direct, straightforward, authentic, and grounded in genuine care. I’m here to meet you where you are and go at your pace. These sessions are yours. I'm here as a sounding board, a listening ear, and someone to help you explore and gain insight into the challenges you’re facing.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into the helping profession has been a deeply personal one. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, the first in my family to be born in the U.S., to young immigrant parents who came from Armenia. Growing up, I witnessed both the challenges and strengths that came with being part of an immigrant family.

My goals for you

Setting realistic and meaningful goals is a key part of the therapeutic process. I believe it’s important that both the client and I agree that the goals we set are attainable and aligned with their needs. Once those goals are identified, we begin the real work: breaking down the issues, identifying barriers, and creating action plans.

Our first session

In our first session, you can expect a lot of questions. This is my chance to get a clear picture of what brings you in and how I can best support you. We’ll cover the basics, such as your current concerns, background, and any previous experiences with therapy. I’m especially interested in what’s worked (or hasn’t worked) for you in the past.

I identify as...
