About Me
Do you need a better way to address personal challenges and stressful situations?
As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, I am here to help YOU live a better life—through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we can work together in treating depression, anxiety, and relationship problems. I enjoy working with both adults and children, allowing them to live more fulfilled lives.
My direct approach is rich with tools to help you feel good. When I work with my clients, my objective is to focus on YOUR goals and to identify what gets in your way of feeling more whole, happy, and connected to others. I use powerful interventions to enhance your progress and to help you uncover your strengths.
My educational background includes a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and a Master of Arts in Psychology, from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology, Palo Alto, CA. Along with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Buddhist Psychology from Naropa University, Boulder, CO.
