I’m an LMFT trained at UCLA and Pepperdine University, and I work with adults/couples caught in patterns that repeat—whether in relationships, in second-guessing, or in the pressure to manage everything perfectly. Together, we examine patterns and develop better ways of responding so change can be meaningful, fulfilling, and lasting.

Dimitry is very easy to work with. He is experienced, understanding, supportive, and very careful with his phrasing. He always guides the session, and I don't have to come up with what to talk about.
