Welcome
I am a licensed
clinical psychologist dedicated to providing evidence-based
psychotherapy that is tailored to address each client's specific needs
and goals. I specialize in cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and
dialectical-behavior (DBT) therapy for adults, young adults, and
adolescents.
I have expertise in treating:
Major Depressive Disorder
Bipolar Disorder
Anxiety Disorders
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Eating Disorders
Borderline Personality Disorder
Self-Injurious Behaviors (e.g., cutting)
Impulsive/ risky behaviors (e.g., substance use, over-spending, risky sexual behaviors)
Relationship problems
Being a therapy client requires courage, patience, and a willingness to
work hard to make effective changes. As a psychologist, I
feel honored that people allow me into their lives and share their
thoughts, feelings, and experiences with me.
I believe wholeheartedly in the power of a strong and collaborative therapeutic relationship. I strive to help each client meet his/her treatment goals and build a more fulfilling life. And I also hope to have a little fun together along the way!
