Adult attachment patterns
For adults who recognize the signature of insecure attachment in their relationships, the familiar arcs, the persistent gap between knowing and feeling, IAT offers a path to genuine reorganization, not just better coping.

Attachment-Based Therapy in Los Angeles
Work with an IAT-certified attachment therapist trained directly with Dr. Daniel P. Brown and Dr. David Elliott. Adult attachment work, couples, and parent-teen repair.
What I offer
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) and an IAT-certified clinician. My practice is small and focused. I work with adults and parents dealing with attachment-based relational patterns that haven’t shifted through other approaches, and I bring the full Integrative Attachment Therapy framework to that work.
Los Angeles has no shortage of therapists who describe themselves as attachment-based or attachment-informed. What is rare is clinical training at the level the IAT model requires: direct, supervised immersion in the Three Pillars framework and the Ideal Parent Figure protocol, assessed and certified by the developers themselves.

Areas of Focus
Who I work with
Parent-teen repair
The adolescent years surface every unresolved attachment issue a parent carries. I work with parents who want to show up differently for their teenagers, not just manage the conflict better but actually close the gap.
Men and fathers
Men are rarely given language for attachment needs, let alone permission to have them. I work with men whose reflexive self-sufficiency and difficulty with intimacy trace back to early caregiving they’ve never been able to fully see or name.
What makes IAT different
Most therapists in Los Angeles, and most good ones, work at the level of narrative, insight, and conscious understanding. That matters, and it is genuinely helpful. But attachment patterns live below insight, which is why the Ideal Parent Figure protocol works directly with felt experience. The result is not just better insight but a different felt sense of relationship: less vigilance, more ease, a changed expectation of what’s possible between people.
