Great to meet you!

I’m a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience in private practice, hospitals, and treatment centers. I specialize in helping individuals work through concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual abuse, questions related to sexual orientation and gender identity, and personality-related challenges.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is integrative, blending psychodynamic work with evidence-based practices. I draw from mindfulness, CBT, and DBT, while also using relational and self-psychology to help you understand how past and present experiences—emotional, physical, and sociocultural—shape your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors today. Through attention to the mind-body connection, holistic practices, and empathic attunement, we work together to reduce distress and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

What you can expect from me

When you work with me, you can expect a genuine connection and to be thoughtfully challenged. Through reflection and a touch of humor, we’ll look beyond symptoms to deepen self-awareness, support personal growth, and create meaningful, lasting change.
