In addition to private practice, I was an Adjunct Professor at Loyola Marymount, where I taught graduate students Addiction Counseling and Human Sexuality. I have also taught Helping Skills, which provides new therapists with the basic skills of listening, reflecting and interpreting to help people gain insight and come up with their own solutions in therapy.
​
After all these years, I still love what I do, and consider it a gift that so many people have allowed me to help them on their journey in life.
If you are in West Hills, Woodland Hills or Calabasas (or surrounding area) and interested in therapy, contact me for a consultation to see if we are a good fit. I also offer teletherapy to anyone in California and Oregon.
About Tori
I knew I wanted to be a therapist when I was 15. I struggled as a teen and had a therapist that changed my life. From that point, I knew I wanted to do the same to help others. I believe that though life has its ups and downs, it’s possible to create the life you love and to be the person you want to be. Therapy can be a game changer if you find the right support.
​
In my practice, I use a mixture of techniques and approaches. Who I am as a therapist is who I am in personal life. I am authentic, and I am an advocate for you to be able to be exactly you are as well. I use humor, storytelling, music, media, quotes, and anything I find that may be relatable. I have a good balance of being compassionate and challenging and will take the time to understand who you are and what you need.
