My Approach to Therapy
Providing virtual individual and family services for adolescents and adults in all 39 PsyPact states
Welcome! If you are searching for a therapist to help you make some positive changes in your life, you have come to the right place.
As a licensed psychologist, I believe in using evidence-based treatment modalities at the core of my therapy to ensure that treatment has the highest possible likelihood of success. My approach is present-focused—I look for patterns in thoughts, behaviors and emotions to find the best strategies and solutions for bringing about change. I incorporate mindfulness-based strategies into behavioral theories including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I practice within a Health at Every Size (HAES) and Intuitive Eating framework, celebrating body diversity and promoting healthy relationships with food. I want each client to feel free to be their most authentic self in therapy, and I strive to create an LGBTQIA+ affirming and sex-positive therapy space.
I am currently operating a fully virtual practice in order to offer services to a broader range of individuals. Meeting virtually is highly convenient, as it eliminates travel time and creates opportunities for families to meet together for sessions even if family members are located in different places. And virtual sessions have been clinically proven to be just as effective as in-person sessions.

Education
I am so excited that you are taking this step to find support for yourself or a loved one. Finding the right therapist is so important in establishing a successful therapy relationship. Let me tell you a little bit about myself to help you decide if I am the right fit for you.
I have been working in the field of psychology for over 20 years, dedicating the majority of my career to working with eating disorders and disordered eating as an educator, clinician, trainer and supervisor. I have worked at several eating disorder treatment facilities, including Kaiser Permanente, Center for Eating Disorders at Sheppard Pratt and Eating Recovery Center where I provided individual and family therapy to children, adolescents and adults. While at the Center for Eating Disorders, I worked as a lead clinician on a research study led by Dr. James Lock and Dr. Stewart Agras investigating the efficacy of family-based treatments for adolescents with Anorexia Nervosa.
This experience led me to become certified as a Family Behavioral Therapist through the Training Institute for Child and Adolescent Eating Disorders, as well as allowed me the opportunity to hone my expertise in the delivery of FBT, also known as the Maudsley Method. I also developed and led a “Collaborative Caring” series of workshops designed to provide education, skills and strategies for parents and caregivers of loved ones with eating disorders to support recovery at home. I also served as the Clinical Manager of the Pathlight Mood and Anxiety Center where I helped to develop and launch the Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient programs for children, adolescents and adults, overseeing specialty tracks in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (ERP) and Trauma (CPT)…
