Psychologist, PsyD

“If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete”.

—Jack Kornfield

I combine yogic and mindfulness teachings with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to inform my therapeutic approach

01 Relationships

I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of their relationships and build healthy, fulfilling connections.

02 Depression

As a therapist, I provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore the root causes of their depression and develop effective coping strategies.

03 Anxiety

I work with clients to identify and address the underlying causes of their anxiety, helping them to develop practical tools to manage symptoms and find greater peace of mind.

04 Prep and Integration of Psychedelic Therapy/ Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)

I am experienced in supporting clients before and after their psychedelic therapy experiences, helping them to prepare mentally and emotionally and integrate their insights into their daily lives for lasting transformation. I also do supportive therapy around Ketamine treatments. Please reach out if you want to learn more.

05 Eating Disorders

My approach to eating disorders is rooted in compassion and understanding, helping clients to explore the emotional and psychological factors that contribute to their disordered eating and develop healthier habits and mindsets.

“But little by little, as you left their voices behind, the stars began to burn through the sheets of clouds, and there was a new voice which you slowly recognized as your own, that kept you company as you strode deeper and deeper into the world, determined to do the only thing you could do – determined to save the only life you could save.”

— Mary Oliver

I am here for the deep work. 

Through developing mindful awareness, I encourage clients to be more present in their daily experiences, gain clarity on what they want from life and relationships, and navigate challenging emotions. By becoming more present in your daily experiences, it’s possible to navigate challenging emotions with greater ease, and eventually, gently, leave behind patterns of behavior or thought that are no longer useful to you.
