I help people, especially entrepreneurs, have better relationships, resolve painful memories (I'm certified & train in EMDR), embrace who they are, and decrease anxiety. I adjust my approach to fit your needs and preferences. Expert in transgender, ESA, VA, immigration, and trauma evaluations. Advanced in trauma, addiction, relationships, and mindfulness (I write about them on Psychology Today). You can usually expect change in 2-8 sessions. As a psychology doctor and professor, I’m updated on the latest research, and am dedicated, caring, and collaborative. You should feel understood, hopeful, and safe in your confidential therapy.

I may integrate mindfulness as well to help you live more in the present and relate more skillfully to your emotions and thoughts so you make better choices. I also publish in professional journals and magazines and present at conferences. Emotional wounds are like broken bones, but very treatable. EMDR can work quickly, sometimes at a seemingly "impossible" pace. I work with a range of diverse clients. I lived in Mexico 4 years, have a degree in Spanish (speaking natively). I strive for great client-service and it's important to find the right therapist for you. I look forward to helping you.
