1stStep: 1-hour Consultation. Accepting new patients. I work with individuals who think deeply, feel intensely, and want meaningful, lasting change. You may be internally managing pressure, overthinking, or a sense that something isn’t fully resolved. The internal experiences can feel complex. Many of the people I work with are perceptive and accustomed to operating at a high level, yet seek greater clarity, purpose, and internal alignment across their relationships, decisions, and personal and professional direction. I accept patients who are ready to do the therapeutic work and are motivated to live a fulfilling life.
I am uniquely trained as both a Clinical Psychologist and Neuropsychologist, allowing me to identify and treat underlying causes of distress. My background includes 3 postdoctoral fellowships, teaching, and published research. I combine depth-oriented psychotherapies, clinical psychology, neuroscience, & neuropsychology to provide precise treatments.
I use an integrative approach tailored to each individual’s history, personality, and goals. I treat the whole person. The focus is on clarity, self-understanding, and meaningful change across emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and relational patterns. Treatment is individualized, thoughtful, and designed to support lasting psychological growth.
