About
I provide a warm, accepting and nonjudgmental approach, emphasizing the use of evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). In addition, I have received training and experience with Radically Open Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (RO-DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I focus on applying mindfulness and related behavioral skills to help clients learn to tolerate distress, manage emotions, and increase their overall coping ability and quality of life. I am a certified eating disorder specialist (CEDS) and have worked extensively with teenagers, adults, and families. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, perfectionism, anxiety, and depression. I also have experience working as part of comprehensive DBT team and provided skills training and support to clients as needed. I have worked in residential, inpatient, and partial hospital levels of treatment for adolescents and adults. I also provide psychological assessment with an emphasis on the diagnosis of severe psychopathology and personality disorders.
