Rise Therapy LA

After spending my formative years in the UK, I relocated to Los Angeles at the age of 20, where I initially embarked on my journey as a nanny. Seeking further growth, I moved to New York City and pursued higher education, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Hunter College, and a graduate degree at the Silberman School of Social Work, with a focus on Child Welfare.

Parenthood brought me back to Los Angeles, where I am now raising my young daughter as a proud single parent. This phase of my life has been deeply transformative, as it has not only enriched my personal experience but also enhanced my professional capacity. My training and education have provided me with invaluable tools to navigate the complexities of life, both as a mother and as a professional. I draw from my experiences with a commitment to continuous learning and personal growth.

I have chosen attachment-centered work because I recognize the profound impact of the parent-child relationship, particularly in the earliest months of life. This understanding has ignited a deep passion within me to support families in nurturing their children’s development and resilience. The foundational bond between parents and infants shapes a child’s emotional, social, and cognitive growth, and by focusing on this critical connection, we can help create secure attachments that serve as a strong base for a child’s future well-being. My goal is to empower parents with the knowledge and tools to foster healthy attachments, promoting their child’s emotional security and overall resilience. Through attachment-centered interventions, we can help break cycles of intergenerational trauma, support parents in understanding their own attachment histories, and guide them in creating nurturing environments for their children, aligning with my belief in the transformative power of early intervention and the importance of supporting families during these crucial formative years.
