how i work

My style is curious, collaborative, and playful. I balance the intensity of life with warmth, empathy, and humor. I am not a blank slate and that's intentional. Rooted in my formal training, ongoing education, and lived experience, I show up as my authentic self to support relational healing.
​
I believe that we exist separately from the problems we're experiencing and that you (yes, you!) already hold the self-knowledge to move your life in your preferred direction. ​I see my role as a thoughtful inquirer, hoping to ask the sorts of questions that might bring forth that rich inner knowing. 
 
Therapy presents an opportunity for reflection and reinvention. It can act as a mirror, ​an accountability-tracker, or a moment of peace in an otherwise chaotic day. Therapy is what you make of it and I look forward to collaborating with you.​​​​​

About me

I'm Zoe. I'm into connection, nuance, and having a nice time. I chose a career in mental health because I'm passionate about finding joy despite it all. When I'm not practicing as a therapist, you'll find me cooking an elaborate meal, out on a walk in the neighborhood, or rummaging through junk at thrift store. I live in Northeast LA with my partner and our two perfect cats. 
 
I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #139372) under the supervision of Jon Tatelman (LMFT #124538).  Prior to entering private practice, I completed my traineeship at the Southern California Counseling Center.
 
I received my MA from Antioch University in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in LGBTQIA+ affirmative psychology. My first degree was a BA in Women & Gender Studies from the University of Colorado Boulder.​Turns out, once you learn to see the world intersectionally there's no going back.
​
I use 'she' pronouns.
