I’m a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in anxiety, trauma, and depression. I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed by persistent thoughts, emotional intensity, or patterns that no longer feel helpful—but aren’t sure how to change them. Many individuals I see are thoughtful, self-aware, and have spent time understanding themselves, yet still feel stuck.

I approach therapy as a space to slow down, look more closely, and begin to understand patterns that don’t fully make sense on the surface. Together, we focus on understanding what’s happening and building more flexible, effective ways of responding.

My approach

My approach integrates ACT, EMDR, attachment-based theory, and DBT-informed skills within a systems perspective. We look at patterns in thoughts, emotions, and relationships—how they developed, what maintains them, and how to begin shifting them. This may include processing unresolved experiences, understanding attachment patterns, and building skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Throughout, we work to increase self-compassion and psychological flexibility so you can respond with more choice and less reactivity.

I take a collaborative and engaged approach to therapy. This means we’re not just talking about your experiences—we’re paying attention to what’s happening in real time, both cognitively and emotionally.

Background and training

My background includes community mental health, where I worked with a wide range of clinical needs in high-acuity settings. This experience shaped my ability to work with complexity, intensity, and diverse presentations. I’ve also worked alongside a neuropsychologist, deepening my understanding of how cognitive and emotional processes interact. In addition to being a clinical psychologist, I am trained as a school psychologist and have experience in both school and intensive outpatient settings. This range allows me to take a more comprehensive, context-aware approach to treatment.

What it’s like to work together

Clients often describe my style as thoughtful, grounded, and attuned. I aim to create a space where you feel both understood and gently challenged—where we can explore what’s happening without judgment, while also working toward meaningful change.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. We pay attention to what resonates for you, what shifts over time, and what feels most helpful in your process.

If you’re considering reaching out

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. If something in this resonates, that’s enough. You’re welcome to reach out for a consultation—we can talk through what’s been going on and see if this feels like a good fit.
