Bienvenido/a/x, Bienvenue, Welcome! I am a clinical psychologist specializing in psychodynamic therapy for adults and psychological testing for ages 6+. I provide evaluations for cognitive, social, or emotional concerns (e.g., ADHD, autism, learning issues, memory, etc.) and forensic evaluations for immigration cases (VAWA, hardship waivers, asylum, U/T-visas). I have years of experience helping people living with anxiety, depression, or trauma, and issues related to sexual, gender, or cultural identity. I also have a background in helping people navigating health challenges or major life transitions, such as grief and loss.
I aspire to actively listen and help you better understand and respond to the challenges you’re experiencing. Through the relationship we build in therapy, or via psychological evaluations, I aim to help you achieve personal growth and diagnostic clarity for your unique concerns. Hablo español con fluidez, et je parle français au niveau intermediare/avancé.
As a therapist, I do my best work with people who want a better understanding of themselves so that they may be able to lead more fulfilling lives. As a psychological evaluator, my goal is to provide you with clarity to effectively move forward. When you are ready, please contact me for a FREE 15-minute consultation.
