Are you feeling that issues in your life are too stressful or painful to cope with on your own? Or do you struggle with depression, anxiety, anger (your own or some else's), mood swings, PTSD, OCD, relationship problems or other emotional difficulties?

I am a Clinical Psychologist dedicated to providing a compassionate and respectful environment where you can explore these and other life issues that are causing you distress.

My approach to treatment is integrative with a strong foundation in Cognitive Behavioral and other evidence-based therapies. Together we will decide which approach(es) are best suited to your needs, and develop a plan on how to achieve and maintain your goals for a more fulfilling life.

My primary research interest is PTSD. I investigated how helpful/unhelpful behaviors by others can impact a rape survivor's long term adjustment. I also developed a model of spirituality and trauma that I investigated with combat veterans. You can read a brief article about this study: http://www.warveteranministers.org/spirituality_intro.htm
