I am a licensed clinical psychologist and work with children, adolescents, and adults who have a variety of presenting problems including anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I specialize in tailoring evidence-based treatments to support client’s mental health and wellness. I believe in the importance of developing a positive therapeutic relationship in order to foster growth and change in my clients. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their experiences, understand their emotions, learn coping skills, and make effective choices that are in line with their values. I utilize a collaborative and trauma-informed approach in my work with clients. My primary treatment modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions. I also integrate aspects of intersectionality, attachment theory, and interpersonal processes approaches. My practice is open and affirming to LGBTQ+ identities and relationships. I understand that seeking out therapy can be a vulnerable experience. Therefore, I offer a brief phone call to determine if my practice is a good fit for your needs.
