My goals as a therapist are to help you develop the insight and tools needed to achieve symptom relief and create a life that is more meaningful and fulfilling in the long-term. With nearly 25 years experience and exceptional credentials, my approach is warm, compassionate, practical, and collaborative. Therapy with me includes both understanding how your history may be informing the challenges bringing you to treatment (the "why?"), and learning skills (the "what now?") to improve your situation. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, the trauma resiliency model, mindfulness based stress reduction and psychodynamic theory.

Areas of specialization include: eating disorders, mood & anxiety disorders, relationship & sexual issues, trauma, and medical psychology. I have experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds and communities, and I have worked in private practice, treatment centers, and prestigious clinical research institutions and hospitals (UCLA, USC, UCSD).

I received my BA in Psychology from UBC, my MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology from USC, and I trained at UCSD and UCLA. Please visit my website for more information about my practice and approach; and call or email to discuss whether I am the right fit for you. I firmly believe that life can be better and that you are taking the first step by reaching out!

My treatments draw heavily on cognitive behavioral therapy, meaning we will pay a lot of attention to the ways in which thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. I often incorporate mindfulness and relaxation skills, use take-home assignments for practice and support in between sessions, and help patients break down complex situation into more manageable problems.
