I am a licensed clinical psychologist focused on working with people in a caring, compassionate, and confidential manner. My specialties include working with people who have mood disorders such as depression, anxiety problems, history of trauma, or who are struggling with a substance use problem. I am also able to help people who are coping with a loved one who is struggling with a substance use problem or who are experiencing relationship problems. I have experience working with people struggling with grief or spirituality related problems as well. I completed my training in clinical psychology and have specialized in general mental health and drug and alcohol use problems. I also have extensive training in psychological assessment and evaluation. I have worked in private mental health clinics, community mental health centers, and a residential substance use treatment center. I believe in an integrated approach to therapy that is focused on the patient and helping you to understand psychological problems in terms of your strengths and previous life experiences. I utilize evidenced based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and humanistic therapy to help you make progress.
