Learn moreCentury City
Century City is one of Los Angeles’ primary business hubs, known for its fast-paced corporate environment and high expectations. While career success is rewarding, the relentless pressure can lead to chronic stress, high-functioning anxiety, and deep burnout.
Many professionals find that their dedication to their career eventually begins to impact their personal relationships, physical health, and overall sense of well-being. I offer a confidential, objective space for Century City professionals to unpack these challenges.
Approach
I utilize a blend of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and psychodynamic approaches to help you manage the demands of your career without sacrificing your mental health. We will work to identify the root causes of your anxiety, set healthy boundaries, and develop practical coping skills that you can apply immediately.
Recognizing the demands on your schedule, I offer in-person appointments in nearby Beverly Hills, as well as online sessions you can join from your office or home. Together, we can help you regain a sense of balance and purpose in both your professional and personal life.
