Hello, I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I have 25 years of experience working various therapeutic settings including psychiatric hospitals, community clinics, and private practice. I consider myself to be an attachment-based therapist, however, I use a variety of theories in my work with clients including CBT, DBT, and solution-focused therapy. I currently support my clients in meeting their therapeutic goals and improving their life experience.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first sessions I will help you explore your goals for therapy and create a treatment plan unique to your needs. I will continue to provide a safe environment for you to explore your feelings and express yourself. I will support you as you process your emotions and develop an effective narrative.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I have over 25 years of experience in mental health which allows me to be open-minded and understanding. I approach our work with an open-mind and understand that acknowledging and processing emotions can be overwhelming. I am straight-forward in my approach to treatment, however, I support my clients with practicality and warmth. I believe in supporting my client's inherent strengths and enjoy witnessing the positive changes they make to their lives.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I enjoy working with women who are looking for support with life transitions including pregnancy, post-partum, relationships, and identity exploration. I have experience working with women struggling with depression, anxiety, and childhood trauma. I love supporting clients improve as they improve their self-esteem, self-concept and meet their potential.

Attachment-based
I consider myself an attachment-based therapist. I use attachment theory to help clients explore their relationships with themselves and others and use the information they find to improve their interpersonal experiences.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I use the theory of DBT to help clients improve their ability to regulate their emotions and improve their interpersonal effectiveness.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help clients identify the thoughts and behaviors that affect their day-to-day lives. Using CBT-based skills will help client change their perspective and engage in thought patterns and behaviors that are more beneficial.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I enjoy helping clients meeting short-term goals by using solution focused brief treatment. I help clients identify their goals and create a personalized plan to meet them.
