Trauma informed care and eating disorders are my wheelhouse.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy yoga, wakeboarding, producing music via GarageBand and Soundtrap; investing in stocks, cryptocurrency, and blue chip art. During the pandemic I taught myself how to change fancy watch batteries and install closetmaid systems. I have a 2 year old mini me. I work from home and she is the worst co worker I’ve ever had.

I have worked with individuals who have experienced trauma, eating disorders, acculturation issues, self-destructive behaviors, anxiety, depression, loss, identity issues, and life transitions.
Taking the first step toward your healing requires courage and I acknowledge the effort you have put forth. Perhaps you have reached a point where you need more awareness in order to deal with your present circumstances. I am a clinical psychologist with several years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and couples. I provide in-depth therapy where we both can begin to explore the underlying causes of your emotional symptoms. I view my role as a psychologist as one who guides you through the healing process. I believe that in order for this to occur, respect, safety, understanding and awareness must be present.

I work primarily with clients who are struggling with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and eating disorders such as Binge Eating Disorder (BED).
When my clients first come to me, their lives feel chaotic and out of control. No matter what they do, they can’t seem to break free from recurrent depression, major ups and downs in their mood, and significant difficulties in their relationships. All they want is to feel more peace within themselves and in the relationships that matter to them the most. They want to be able to live life on their terms, and yet, this keeps on eluding them, even though they might be really accomplished in other areas of their life, like work.

I work with adults and couples facing a wide-range of challenges, including self-worth, eating disorders, complex/acute trauma, anxiety, depression and life transitions.
We often find ourselves considering psychotherapy when the things we are doing no longer seem to be working in creating the life we want. And while it’s not uncommon to experience some anxiety, sadness, doubt, etc., (because sometimes life just is hard), when it starts to feel terribly overwhelming, you don’t have to suffer alone. Within these challenging moments, there can be meaningful potential for healing and personal growth. Psychotherapy is an excellent tool to help you understand yourself more deeply, repair your relationships (with yourself and others), and offer relief in the face of difficult emotional experiences.
