I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in working with people experiencing anxiety, depression, eating disorders, life transitions, career issues, grief/bereavement, gains and losses, self-esteem and body image issues, and trauma. I work collaboratively with clients in order to empower them to be their best selves. I use a client-centered approach to counsel and address clients’ unique challenges from developmental, cultural, and psychological viewpoints. I help clients to see what is in their control to change and where it may help to practice acceptance. I integrate different approaches to therapy and has experience in using DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance Commitment Therapy), mindfulness, interpersonal approaches, attachment, and family systems theories. I believe that some of the biggest shifts begin within the therapeutic relationship and then extend out into daily life. I look forward to meeting you and working you with you.
