Great to meet you!

I'm a licensed Psychologist in CT and FL dedicated to helping you find a way to manage your symptoms and effectively negotiate the complexities of how you relate within yourself and to the world around you.


I received my PH.D. in Clinical Psychology from PGSP (Palo Alto University). My APA internship was at the State of CT DMHAS River Valley Services, with rotations at CT Valley Hospital. I completed my post-doc at the UCONN Dept. of Psychology, Research Division.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I rely on an integration of evidence-based components of classic therapeutic modalities. I focus on factors related to resiliency to help reduce the impact of the difficult things life throws at us. I'm sensitive, considerate, and will integrate your ethnicity, spirituality, and personal choice into therapy.

I work with individuals and couples across a broad range of ages and experiential backgrounds.

What you can expect from our first session

The psychotherapy process may be difficult at times and, together, will work at a pace that is comfortable for you.
