I see patients of all ages and have experience helping those with grief, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, trauma and its aftermath, life transitions, stress management, goal setting and planning across the life span. I strive to create a warm, empowering and engaging environment. I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Existentialist framework, Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness techniques, as well as Somatic and neurological based-approaches.
My background includes Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, hospital and outpatient settings, Psychiatric care and Medical Education, which allowed me to conduct research in the science of chronic illness, pain, resilience and neuroanatomy of mood disorders. I have strong experience working with healthcare professionals and chronic illness.
In my free time I love to go on adventures, hikes and walks with my wonderful partner and our Weiner dog, Franklin, exercise, cook, try new food, read and learn, play volleyball, watch sports with friends, or nerd out with a video game.
