If you are coping with depression or health issues like cancer, insomnia, nicotine dependence, stigma, infertility, and/or perinatal mental health concerns or stress, I could be a good fit to help. As a Clinical Health Psychologist and an Associate Professor at Rutgers University, I use evidence-based interventions to help you to feel better quickly. I also tailor treatment according to a your values, culture, and life so that you can stay well. As a researcher and consultant in integrated care, I value coordination with your care team. As a yoga teacher, I incorporate somatic practices. I value diversity. I value you. Welcome.
For the past 15 years, I have been treating and learning from people coping with cancer, insomnia, tobacco cessation, new moms, and people with depression. I have specialty training in Psycho-Oncology from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and conduct research, consulting, and training in health psychology broadly.
Telehealth to most states (NJ + PSYPACT states) is available. Please reach out to see if we might be a good fit, or if I can help you find the right fit for treatment for you. This is a brave first step, and I am so glad that you're here.
