Hi! I'm Eike

I am so excited you are here!!

I don’t expect you to feel comfortable spilling to a complete stranger, so first I’ll tell you a little bit about me.

​

I’m a Southern California-based, psychotherapist, researcher, and former professional athlete. I specialize in supporting teens and young adults, with a focus on self-identity, transitions, relationships, anxiety, stress, trauma, and athletics. My graduate degree is in Social Work with an emphasis in adult mental health from the University of Southern California. 

​

I practice an intuitive wellness approach to coaching and therapeutic services. I find that it resonates with the population I work with and it also feels truest to me. You can read more about my approach here. 

Outside of work I spend much of my time enjoying nature, playing with my bulldog Ben, working out, dancing to loud music, traveling, and spending time with family & friends. Self-care and a healthy life/work balance are very important to me!

​

Ask me questions, tell me about you, let’s get to know each other!
