Therapy
As a Clinical Psychologist, I provide psychotherapy for a variety of issues and conditions, with specialized training in trauma and PTSD. Over the years I have worked with many people experiencing the impact from all types of trauma. In my practice I seek to understand the unique impact for each person I work with.
I use evidence-based treatments, which means the approaches I offer have been carefully researched and shown to be effective in helping people with specific concerns. At the same time, I know that no two people are alike. We’ll work together to understand your goals, make decisions as a team, and create a treatment plan that fits you and your life.
Below you’ll find information and resources about some of the evidence-based treatments I’m trained to provide and where I am licensed to provided care.
Cognitive Process Therapy
Cognitive Process Therapy (CPT) is a treatment for PTSD, which helps you understand the impact of your trauma on your life, your beliefs, and your relationships. To learn more visit Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD - PTSD: National Center for PTSD.

Other evidence-based treatments
I currently provide psychotherapy exclusively through secure, confidential video sessions. Telehealth makes it easier to fit therapy into your life by removing many of the barriers that come with in-person appointments. It helps reduce travel time and costs and offers greater convenience and flexibility—allowing you to connect from the comfort and privacy of your own space.
I hold a PSYPACT (Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact) license, which allows me to deliver care to clients located in 43 participating states, the District of Columbia, and select U.S. territories.
