You don’t have to keep living in cycles of stress, symptoms, and temporary relief. I’m a licensed psychologist providing high-level, personalized care across the lifespan, specializing in the intersection of mental and physical health. My training at renowned children’s hospitals across the world, along with a rigorous fellowship in chronic conditions, pain management, and neuropsychological assessment, informs an integrative approach to care. I use Hypnosis, CBT, ACT, EMDR, and mind-body therapies to create meaningful lasting change.
I offer neuropsychological assessment for ADHD, learning differences, and giftedness, and specialize in chronic and acute pain, gut-brain disorders (IBS/IBD/Crohn's), migraines, functional neurological disorder (FND), PTSD, and emetophobia. My work is precise, collaborative, and tailored for clients seeking depth, clarity, and real results.
My approach is personalized and collaborative, with a focus on real, lasting change. I frequently work with individuals managing complex or persistent concerns. If it feels like a fit, I invite you to reach out. I'd love to create a safe space for you to begin your healing journey!
