I have over 27 years experience as a clinical psychologist and I am also a registered nurse. My clinical experience includes therapeutically working with a wide range of clients with various mental health issues and age groups. I have many years of experience with children, adolescents and adults with complex behavioral and emotional needs which affect one's well-being and happiness. My experience as a registered nurse strengthens my role as a psychologist. I am also certified in trauma and am a yoga instructor. Let's work on your wellness journey together!
My specialties include trauma, substance abuse, depression, and anxiety. I treat children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience in both chronic and acute conditions.
