A Harvard and Stanford trained trauma therapist and clinical neuropsychologist, my passion is helping individuals return to themselves after trauma, chronic illness and major life changes. Has something changed in your life and you just don't feel like yourself anymore? Do you feel overwhelmed trying to get through the day? Do you feel scared, angry, or stuck? If so, you're not alone! People who have experienced major events or illnesses often feel frustrated, uncertain, and overwhelmed. They worry that this will go on forever. But there is hope. I can help you to focus your mind, process your feelings, and rekindle joy.
Together, we can collaborate to create a space of understanding and unconditional support on your path to wellness. I offer safe, inclusive, integrated treatments, supported by science, so you can make changes that stick and move toward your better life.
I provide compassionate, goal-oriented treatment, supportive therapy, and neuropsychological assessment. Clients typically tell me they feel better after each session, but great therapy is about goodness of fit. To see whether I'm a good fit, book a 15-minute consult today by clicking on my website. I am accepting new clients and hope to hear from you!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice, particularly Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness-Based approaches. With CBT, we'll look at how thoughts affect emotions and experience and learn to adjust thoughts and actions to improve your feelings. ACT asks you to consider what you value. I often begin sessions with mindfulness and ask you to practice mindfulness at home.
