It was January 2017, when my world nearly shattered: my oldest son found his brother's suicide note on top of the washing machine. My then 17-year-old son, who longed for a world he felt he could never belong to, had planned to end his life.
He loved the magic of stories like Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. "This world is not fantasy." I don't belong here." With autism making every day a battle and feeling isolated from others, he had secretly decided to end his life by jumping from a freeway overpass. As he was pacing, contemplating his death, asking God if it was the right thing to do, his siblings spotted him on the bridge.
At the time, I shared an office suite with Dr. Bhasin from PointKetamine. When Kenny was released from the psychiatric hold, I scheduled his appointments without hesitation. What followed was nothing short of miraculous. Kenny experienced a profound transformation.
Witnessing this incredible turnaround ignited a passion within me to bring this gift of healing to others.
For high-achievers, the very drive that creates success often stems from childhood wounds we've never had time to heal, the need to prove our worth, to be indispensable, never to be vulnerable again.
Just as my son Kenny discovered through ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, these subconscious patterns will continue to sabotage our peace until we finally give ourselves permission to stop surviving and start healing. The same analytical mind that built your success can become your greatest ally in transformation, but only when you create the space to access the wisdom that's been waiting beneath all that armor.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 102384) with specialized certification in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, I bring both clinical expertise and deep personal understanding to the unique challenges.
My advanced training goes far beyond traditional therapy education, encompassing specialized certification in psychedelic-assisted therapy, extensive study in trauma-informed care, ongoing learning in the emerging field, and witnessing our patients' stories.
My journey into KAP began through witnessing firsthand the profound transformation possible when we create safe access to our deepest wisdom.
After my son's remarkable healing through ketamine therapy in 2017, Dr. Bhasin invited me to work with his patients. This specialized training required mastering not just the clinical protocols and safety measures essential for working with altered states of consciousness, but also developing the presence and attunement necessary to hold space for breakthrough healing.
Unlike traditional therapy training that focuses on ordinary consciousness, KAP demands expertise in navigating extraordinary states of mind, somatic awareness, integration techniques, and the sophisticated medical collaboration required for this cutting-edge treatment.
Recognizing that high-achievers require a different level of service, we offer a concierge approach that honors both your time constraints and your need for profound healing. This isn't traditional therapy adapted for busy schedules—it's a completely reimagined experience that recognizes successful professionals deserve care that matches their standards of excellence. My concierge KAP practice offers extended 2-3 hour sessions without the artificial constraints of insurance-driven timelines, direct access to me between sessions via secure communication, and flexible scheduling that works around your demanding career.
In partnership with Dr. Paramdeep Bhasin, MD, a seasoned anesthesiologist with over 28 years of experience in innovative ketamine treatments, we provide the highest level of medical oversight and safety protocols. This collaboration ensures that every aspect of your care meets the exacting standards you expect, from the initial executive consultation through your complete healing journey. You receive not just therapy, but a comprehensive healing experience designed specifically for individuals who are accustomed to excellence and require nothing less in their mental health care.
Breakthrough healing requires a level of expertise and coordination that matches the complexity of your needs. Our collaborative care model brings together three specialized professionals, each contributing essential expertise to ensure your transformation is both profound and safe.
