I provide evidence-based cutting edge, transparent, and collaborative treatment to ensure the quality of care. I am actively engaged in scientific research to understand and improve treatment for anxiety and depression. My approach to psychotherapy incorporates cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotion-focused therapy (EFT), and motivational interviewing (MI). I create a non-judgmental and supportive environment where clients can gradually develop more understanding of effective ways to deal with overwhelming and difficult emotions, the role of thoughts in contributing to distress, and strategies to build and cultivate relationships.
I have worked in outpatient, inpatient, university, forensic, and private practice settings. I specialize in treating issues, such as:
- depression - anxiety (e.g., generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks)
- concerns with body-image, weight, and eating- eating disorders
- interpersonal conflicts- overwhelming emotions (e.g., anger, sadness)

What to expect when working with me:
The initial session typically includes an in-depth conversation to understand your reason for seeking help and to get to know you, including your background, relationships, values, and goals. Together, we will develop an individualized treatment plan based on your specific needs. I also use different clinical measures suited to each client's situation to understand the severity of psychological symptoms and to hone treatment to best help each individual person. My approach is collaborative, flexible, and goal-oriented.
