If you feel distant from your usual self, or out of place in your day to day encounters, therapy with me can be a safe reintroduction to yourself. I will be an ally, a guide and sometimes a mirror.

What I learned is that when people feel heard they respond because they feel safe.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and have been practicing for about 8 years. I graduated with a PhD from the University of Massachusetts Boston before returning home once again to San Diego, where I am currently based. I am deeply appreciative that I have found a calling as therapist and can do something I enjoy as a full time job. I enjoy seeing people grow and utilize their strengths to overcome difficult challenges, and am grateful I can be a part of that experience. I enjoy regularly learning about new research and well supported methods for growth and healing, and share this with my clients.

I believe in genuine, authentic interaction with my clients using humor and warmth. I believe using an informed approach with proven interventions are the 'keys to the kingdom' and allow the client to 'unlock' their own way forward. I believe each client has an inner wisdom that - once discovered - will lead them onto their own path, towards their most genuine, core sense of self, and healing. It is important to be able to identify and describe your goals, and remove whatever is blocking you from reaching them. My concentration was neural-plasticity (the way the brain is trained and untrained), I have extensive experience in addiction medicine (this includes disordered eating as well as other addictions), and multi-cultural experience as well as LGBTQ. I am also a member of American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy, accredited supervisor candidate, Adjunct Professor of Psychology.
