About me
I am a Licensed Psychologist with more than a decade of experience helping children, teens, and adults. I offer an authentic and validating space for clients, while providing treatments that are backed by science and proven to be effective. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, mood disorders, trauma-related problems, self-harm behaviors, and conducting comprehensive psychological evaluations.
I provide compassionate care and tailor empirically supported treatments for children and adults. I primarily utilize mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I am a EMDRIA Approved Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapist and utilize EMDR to help individuals overcome difficult traumas and experiences.
I have success working with individuals and families to treat anxiety disorders, unipolar and bipolar depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, low self-esteem, grief, and difficulties associated ADHD. Lastly, I conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations for specific learning disabilities, ADHD, autism, gifted programming, and complex psychiatric disorders.
