I’m an Armenian-Argentinian cis-man based in Los Angeles, CA since 2017. I have over a decade of experience in the field of mental health. My therapy career began in 2013, focusing on neurodiverse children. I obtained my Psychology licensure from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2016.
As a former school psychologist and member of the Psychosomatic Unit at Hospital Durand, Buenos Aires, I served underserved populations dealing with psychosomatic issues and substance abuse.
In 2021, I earned an MA in MFT from Alliant International University, graduating with distinction. At the 2020 FACE conference, I presented my work titled “Who is in Therapy When The Subject is Silenced?” alongside my mentor, Iman Dadras, Ph.D.
During my training, I enhanced my skills at The Maple Counseling Center and Miracle Mile Community Practice, working with various demographics.
In 2022-2023, I completed a year-long training in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at LAISPS (Los Angeles Institute and Society for Psychoanalytic Studies). Additionally, I worked under the supervision of Dr. Steven Isaacman, further enriching my experience.
Currently, I’m a Registered Associate MFT in private practice under the supervision of Alejandro Sandoval, LMFT. My specialization includes working with adult couples and individuals.
