I am a board certified, licensed psychologist dedicated to helping individuals navigate personal and professional challenges on the path toward positive mental health and well-being. With specialized training in trauma, depression, anxiety, sleep, gender and sexual identity, and adjustment to chronic medical illness, I bring years of clinical experience to assist in managing life’s challenges. I also provide a host of assessment services including readiness for surgery evaluations including bariatric and gender-affirming surgery. My approach is rooted in empathy and evidence-based practice to ensure a positive experience.
I work with adults and adolescents (age 16+) and offer flexible hours to accommodate busy schedules. I am also a PSY-PACT approved provider and able to provide telehealth services to clients in over 35 states. Please visit my website for a list of specific states.
Prior to my work at Rivanna Counseling, I was a faculty member at both University of Virginia and Emory University Schools of Medicine. I earned my PhD from the University of Oregon and completed my Postdoctoral Fellowship from Emory University School of Medicine.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
