My Philosophy
Congratulations on taking the first step towards your personal goals! Whether you're new to therapy or experienced, I welcome you wherever you are in your journey.
I've worked across diverse settings, spanning ages 3 to 105, and I meet you without judgment.
In therapy with me, you can expect:
A warm and inviting space for your emotions
A deep understanding of your history, culture, and current context
Identifying your strengths and areas for change
Exploring past experiences, including trauma, and their impact
Recognizing how past experiences manifest in physical symptoms
Creating new life approaches based on insights
Positive energy, smiles, and laughter
I adapt my approach based on your comfort. As a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, specifically in Music Therapy, I use music and creative arts (art, drama, writing, dance, etc.) for deeper self-understanding. No prior arts experience needed! Alternatively, I draw from DBT, CBT, mindfulness, and other talk therapy approaches.
I bring my whole self to sessions. As a woman of Armenian descent with an immigrant father, I understand intergenerational trauma, cultural sensitivity, and sociopolitical violence's impact.
Being part of the LGBTQ+ community, I welcome all sexuality and gender orientations, individuals, couples, polycules, and diverse group dynamics. I specialize in polyamory and ethical non-monogamy, promoting healthy communication and relating.
As an actor, I empathize with the unique challenges of the performing arts. I welcome other creatives dealing with rejection, body image, burnout, workplace issues, and more.
Let's create a safe space for your authentic self. Best wishes on your journey!
