I am a licensed clinical psychologist committed to helping you build a life worth living. I work with a variety of issues including recovering from trauma, coping with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and learning to manage emotions. My approach is to work collaboratively with you to learn new behaviors and skills to replace ineffective patterns of behavior that are interfering in your life.
My work is rooted in science and I utilize cutting-edge evidence-based treatments. For chronic pain, I utilize CBT for Chronic Pain, as well as ACT. For trauma, I use the gold standard treatments of Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure. For individuals with difficulties managing emotions, I am an experienced DBT therapist.
I believe the outcome of therapy is to help you live a life in accordance to your values and long-term goals. I will strive to give you the guidance and tools to make that a reality.

I work with clients struggling with issues such as trauma, anxiety, pain, or overwhelming emotions. In initial sessions, we look into the cause of the problems and develop a plan to address them that helps you start living the life you want. I like to give my clients real world skills to help them feel better early in treatment with continued improvements throughout treatment.

I most often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice as well as Dialectical Behavior Therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what has brought you to therapy and then decide on the treatment that best matches your goals. I believe strongly in using the treatments that have the most scientific evidence to support that they will help your specific issue.
