Living with Integrity Therapist in Venice
Align Your Actions. Honor Your Truth. Live a Life You Respect.
In our therapy sessions, we will work on:
• Identifying your authentic values, beliefs, and priorities
• Exploring areas where you feel out of alignment or disconnected
• Healing from self-betrayal, moral injury, or regret
• Making courageous decisions that reflect who you truly are
• Strengthening your inner voice and personal accountability
• Creating boundaries that support your integrity
• Practicing honesty in your relationships—with yourself and others
• Building a life that feels congruent inside and out
Integrity isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being whole. It’s the quiet power of living in alignment with your values, your truth, and your inner compass. When we betray ourselves—by staying silent, playing small, or compromising what matters most—we often feel anxious, resentful, or lost.
As a registered psychotherapist and former medical doctor, I help individuals reconnect with their core values and take steps toward a life that feels honest, grounded, and self-respecting. Whether you’re recovering from past misalignments or trying to make difficult choices with clarity, therapy can guide you back to center.
You don’t need to prove your worth—you need to live in a way that feels worthy to you. Let’s help you walk your path with clarity, self-respect, and purpose—one step at a time.
I provide therapy in Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Venice, Marina Del Rey, Culver City, Mar Vista, Playa Del Rey, West Los Angeles, Pacific Palisades, Palms, and Santa Monica.
