I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 12 years of experience. After graduating with my PhD, I changed my focus from research and teaching to direct clinical work in response to the pandemic. I’m also the owner of Northside Clinical Psychologists. I provide individual psychotherapy and couples therapy for a variety of different relationship configurations. I also conduct psycho-educational and diagnostic assessments for adults and teens. I specialize in depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship issues. I have extensive training in ERP (Exposure Response Prevention), CPT, CBT, DBT, ACT, family interventions, and IPT.
I promise to listen nonjudgmentally and provide a safe space for you to process your thoughts and feelings. I take the time to really understand your experience. Prior clients have said they appreciate my authenticity and approach to gently challenging their thoughts and assumptions. Bonus: Sometimes I bring my French bulldog to assist in sessions.
I believe the therapy relationship is unique in how it can be nurturing and transformative. The work we do together won’t necessarily be easy, but you won’t be doing it alone until you’re ready. I want you to get to the point where you no longer feel you need me whether it’s been 3 weeks or over a year. Send me a message to schedule your first session.
