Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in depression, anxiety, Trichotillomania, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Adjustment Disorder, relationship issues, and stress management. I understand that no one technique is appropriate for every individual, so I prefer an eclectic approach to provide clients the necessary tools to improve their lives. However, my primary approach is evidenced-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

My approach to therapy

Using CBT, I help clients develop improved insight into their thought processes and how they can impact their emotional experience. I recognize that it requires courage and willpower to seek therapy. I therefore seek to improve self-efficacy and empower people to assert control over their own mental health. Helping clients believe in themselves, become more attuned to their thoughts, and utilize mind over mood affords me enormous gratification.

What you can expect from me

As a mental health professional, I help clients learn about their own thought processes and empower them to see things from a different perspective to overcome obstacles and improve positive thinking and behavior. We work together utilizing an integrative approach to build tools to regain control over your life.
