Welcome. I’m a UCLA-trained licensed clinical psychologist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for high-achieving individuals. I work with college students, professionals, and established adults who appear successful on the outside but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or not where they want to be in their lives. My approach is active, practical, and focused on meaningful change. Together, we identify what’s getting in the way and build the skills needed to move forward with clarity and confidence. I offer in-person sessions in Santa Ynez and serve clients in Montecito and Santa Barbara with secure video sessions.
Therapy may be of great benefit not only to help you through a difficult time, but also to help build the life you truly desire. I understand it may be scary to reach out for help, and my hope is to make the first step as easy as possible.
While my credentials are established and well respected, I am most often appreciated for my casual, warm personality and my inviting and comfortable private practice. I am also valued for my ability to connect with teens or adults who have tried other therapists but have not yet been able to achieve their treatment goals.
