The impact of chronic pain often goes far beyond the body, and may leave you feeling depressed, anxious, angry, and isolated. As a pain psychologist, I can help you build effective coping tools to take back control over your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical symptoms so that you can live a meaningful life that is not defined by your pain. I emphasize a collaborative, solution-focused approach to therapy, and will work with you to create a treatment plan that takes into account the unique biological, psychological, and social factors that make you who you are.
With a strong background in behavioral medicine, I have extensive experience working with a wide variety of medical conditions. I value an interdisciplinary approach to health care, and would be happy to collaborate with your medical team to address your needs and promote your well-being as a whole person.
I offer the option of convenient video/phone sessions because I believe that nobody should have to choose between work/family life and their mental health care. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your goals. I look forward to being a part of your journey toward emotional wellness.
