​

Experienced culturally-informed individual/couples therapist, supervisor and training analyst. Often, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want in relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with a therapist you trust and feel comfortable with, you can learn how to cope with what the "universe" throws your way, and choose behaviors and habits that can help you get more of what you want from life. I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better, live more consciously and have more successful relationships.

I specialize in diagnosing individuals with neurodivergence (ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, learning differences) and mood and anxiety disorders through psychodiagnostic and neuropsychological testing. I use my background in neuropsychology to inform evaluations by helping patients better understand the connections between their brain and their lived experiences and symptoms and providing answers that inform treatment. For therapy, I help patients with attentional difficulties, learning differences, and social challenges by leaning on my training in CBT, DBT, behavioral activation, and Motivational Interviewing. I ensure my patients learn skills to improve their lives, all while feeling seen, heard, and understood.
