Introduction

I'm a Clinical Psychologist specializing in supporting young adults, college students, and parents through life's most challenging transitions. My work centers on anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, and the unique stressors of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and parenting. I draw on psychodynamic and relational approaches to help you understand the roots of what you're experiencing, while also offering parent consultation for those navigating the complexities of raising children. Whether you're processing past trauma, managing college-related stress, adjusting to parenthood, or working through relationship and communication challenges, I'm here to create a thoughtful, collaborative space for healing and growth. I work with individuals across the lifespan—from children and teenagers through older adults—and I'm trained in play therapy for younger clients. I offer both in-person and telehealth appointments and accept UCB SHIP insurance. I'm currently accepting new clients and would welcome the opportunity to work with you.
