I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Psychologist who works with adults in individual psychotherapy. One of the first things I’ll ask you is how you want your life and mental health to improve within the next few months.

To achieve this, I use an integrative, client-centred approach to therapy, weaving together cognitive-behavioural (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), compassion-focused, psychodynamic, and relational interventions to address those issues that, in the moment and over time, have most impacted your functioning and peace of mind. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Palo Alto University.

I trained in Chicago over the last two years and recently moved to New York City, where I am excited to begin a new journey. I am qualified to work with all ages through clinical training at three university counselling centers, community clinics for older adults and LGBTQ young adults, group therapy for neurodiverse children, and two LGBTQ-oriented private practices.

Having also lived in DC, England, Spain, and Taiwan, I implement cultural competence and humility in working with clients of many racial, cultural, regional, and international identities. I encourage you to contact me and discuss how I might best help you engage in your therapeutic journey of healing, growth, and hope.
