More about me:
-
I earned my Ph.D. in 2012​ from an APA-accredited Clinical Psychology program
-
I specialize in evidence-based treatments, which means I focus on therapies that are scientifically proven to get results
More about my approach:
-
It's interactive and collaborative.​
-
It's transparent, open, and non-judgmental.

It's value-oriented, tailored to you, with a focus on skills that you can use long after therapy has concluded.
-
It's centered around current patterns and experiences, with ways to help change them.

THE MAIN MODE OF THERAPY I USE IS:
COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY
CBT is based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors all interact.
How you think about a situation or problem is going to affect how you feel.
How you feel in turn affects what you do and where you are comfortable and at ease.
I AM ALSO TRAINED IN:
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which aims to help people identify their core values, live more in the moment, accept thoughts and feelings without judgment, and live in a way that aligns with their values.
-
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which aims to help people better manage their emotions, especially those that are painful, and to decrease conflict in their interpersonal relationships.
I AM A CERTIFIED PROVIDER OF:
-
Cognitive Processing Therapy, a specific type of CBT that has been shown to be effective in reducing the negative symptoms of PTSD, by helping to challenge and modify unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma.
