I am a licensed psychologist with a passion for working with women, especially those at the intersection of reproductive and mental health across the lifespan.

Further, I have worked with women experiencing chronic pelvic pain, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and other reproductive health challenges outside of pregnancy.

I am a Licensed Counselor with additional credentialing in Health Sciences & Exercise Instruction. I took this integrative route because the physical health/mental health connection has always been important to me.

My goal as a therapist is to understand a person and their situation by paying close attention to them, asking questions, and using what I have learned from past experience. I think understanding different parts of a person’s life helps create a more complete picture of what is keeping them stuck, unhappy, unaware, or unsatisfied. From there it’s possible to help make changes and face difficult circumstances. My clinical and research work has focused on anxiety, stress, PTSD, moral injury, and helping people suffering from the impact of trauma.

The brain has an immense capacity to change and grow over a lifetime. Clinical research demonstrates even a few months of mindfulness practice can be effective in treating chronic stress, depression, anxiety, addictions, pain, illness, and can boost performance under pressure, enhance relationships, and improve enjoyment of work.

I will help you use your strengths to harness the power of your mind and develop skills to uncover more peace, joy, and freedom in your life!
