Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist and I am dedicated to helping adult individuals and couples transform and thrive. During my doctoral studies at Harvard University, I gained extensive experience using evidence-based treatments, including CBT, ACT, DBT, and CPT with a wide range of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, grief, stress, life transitions, and relationship issues. I am committed to respecting the worth of all persons, including those with differing abilities, races/ethnicities, gender identities, and the LGBTQIA-plus community.
I believe that therapy has the power to illuminate what is truly possible for an individual, and that my job is to help clients access their inherent strengths and move closer to their full potential. My couples work is rooted in the science of attachment, and I use gold standard treatments to enable fundamentally different ways of relating to one another.
I conducted research on the science of happiness and resilience during my doctoral studies that informs my clinical practice today, and I published multiple book chapters and peer-reviewed articles on my findings. I received additional training during clinical respecialization at CSPP and postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University School of Medicine.
