Are you ready to make meaningful changes? If you're struggling with unhealthy behaviors, relationships, thought patterns, or sense of self, it's time to approach things differently. I'm a licensed psychologist with experience treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, and adjustment to chronic medical conditions. I've worked in settings that focus on addiction treatment, LGBTQ+ identities, Veterans and military families, trauma, neurological illness and injury, relationship difficulties, and adjustment to college and higher education.
I draw from therapeutic approaches including Cogntive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), with a focus on helping you develop more adaptive thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.
You can expect me to be warm and empowering while also direct and solution-focused. I incorporate a collaborative, strengths-based approach with evidence-based practices to promote healing and growth, and I believe in developing a strong therapeutic relationship that incorporates authenticity and feedback.
