I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Seattle, 

   with a dual concentration in Adult Psychotherapy and Health Psychology.

   

   I have over 15 years of experience working and training in a variety of settings

   including inpatient psychiatric units, child and adolescent inpatient units and

   outpatient care, school-based therapeutic interventions, community mental

   health centers, and substance misuse treatment clinics. 
 

     Specialty Areas: 

​

• depression

• anxiety

• substance use disorders

• chronic health issues

• grief and loss

• mood and behavior concerns

• trauma

• life transitions

• relationship challenges

​

​

 I have worked with issues around cultural identity and have an understanding of the continuously varying perception of therapeutic practices and healing, across cultures and age groups. I always look

  to you, the expert in your life, to guide me in understanding your experiences

  and your understanding of the world. 

I use an integrative approach to psychotherapy and believe strongly in tailoring therapy to an individual’s unique needs within a confidential and supportive environment. 

 

My approach is informed by Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with the integration of evidenced-based strategies that are solution-focused and goal-driven.
