I am a licensed clinical psychologist working with Ballas Psychological Services. I specialize in the treatment of OCD, anxiety, and trauma disorders with a primary focus on helping clients to utilize cognitive and behavioral techniques for managing and reducing the symptoms of these disorders, including exposure and response prevention (ERP) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I have experience working with clients in a range of settings, including inpatient medical and outpatient mental health.
I use an ACT-based framework to help patients with co-occurring mood and anxiety disorders identify meaning in their lives and develop a values-based rationale for rising to life’s challenges. For patients with ADHD, I work to provide structure and help you to develop or refine time-management skills in a collaborative manner to allow you to meet goals at your pace. For patients who struggle with broader interpersonal or emotion regulation challenges, I provide supplemental DBT skills training.
I have treated patients with OCD since 2021. I was supervised as both an extern and a postdoc by a senior provider in the field and have continued to work primarily with patients with OCD as a licensed provider.
