About
Brandon
Hello! My name is Brandon. I love to create a warm and open environment in my sessions to help clients feel like they can be honest and vulnerable with their emotions. I approach therapy by encouraging clients to build awareness of their internal experience and develop meaningful changes in their lives. My hope is to help people learn new ways of interacting with their thoughts, feelings, and life challenges that feel overwhelming.
I love spending time with my cat (who sometimes likes to sleep in the background of my sessions), husband, and friend group around the Los Angeles area. I am very interested in music, theater, drag, and comedy and try to go to as many concerts and live events as possible. In addition to providing therapy, I enjoy teaching and supporting future therapists at Pepperdine University’s Graduate School of Education and Psychology where I work as an adjunct professor.
