Although I consider myself a lifelong learner, my name can often throw people. While my last name is "Student," I am actually a licensed, seasoned clinician with extensive training and experience in the field of psychology. I help adults confront a wide range of challenges, such as depression, anxiety, and traumatic stress. I also have expertise in assisting individuals struggling with their physical health, including chronic pain, medical illness, and sleep/insomnia.
As a therapist I value compassion, collaboration, contribution, and genuineness. I show up, remain active, and don’t take this work lightly. With care and understanding, I invite you to “dig in,” make change, and experiment with new ways of living. I use treatments that have strong scientific support, but individualize these approaches to meet your needs.
I am social-justice oriented, and make every effort to be inclusive and equitable in my care. As a member of the queer community I also provide welcoming care for those living romantic, sexual, and gender-diverse lives.

I provide care for general mental health concerns, but also have specialized experience in health psychology - the intersection of mental and physical health. This means that I provide specialty care for those struggling with "uncooperative" bodies (sleep disturbances, chronic pain, chronic illness, health anxiety, etc).

I utilize a mindfulness-based treatment called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to assist with chronic pain/illness, depression, anxiety, grief, anger, & traumatic stress. When appropriate, I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for insomnia, chronic pain, ADHD, and other conditions. Together we will collaborate to ensure we are using the right treatments for your concerns and goals.
