Great to meet you!

As a licensed psychologist, I provide psychotherapy focused on relieving symptoms of anxiety and depression while enhancing interpersonal relationships. I have extensive experience working with adults and children of all ages with diverse needs.

My approach to therapy

With training is in psychodynamic and attachment theories, I have come to incorporate evidence-based, cognitive behavioral techniques into my work.

What you can expect from me

In addition to growth-oriented individual treatment, I offer support to parents of children with emotional, social, behavioral or sensory issues. I have also developed specialized skills doing teletherapy with caregivers of family members who struggle with long-term psychiatric or medical challenges.
