About me
I am a licensed clinical psychologist, specializing in the treatment of children, adolescents, and young adults facing a range of mental and behavioral health concerns. These include, but are not limited to, eating disorders (e.g., anorexia, bulimia, ARFID), mood and anxiety disorders (e.g., depression, generalized anxiety, and phobias), obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD), social difficulties (e.g., social skills deficits, social anxiety), and other (e.g., academic, impulsivity) challenges.
I am dedicated to providing evidence-based practices, which are primarily cognitive-behavioral and compatible approaches, tailored to the unique needs of each client. I also consult with parents, educators, physicians, dieticians, and other professionals when indicated.
In my view, the overall goal of therapy is to enhance wellbeing, and I am dedicated to working towards this through all possible efforts. I consider therapy to be a success when clients learn skills that they can independently utilize in the “real world” when current and future challenges present. In other words, the best therapy is that which is no longer needed.
