I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor with ten years of experience. I earned my BA in Psychology from San Francisco State University and my MA in Mental Health Counseling from Rivier University. My approach uses a blend of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused, and Client Centered therapies to treat a range of issues. I am trained in the Flash Technique for the treatment of trauma and I am certified in perinatal mental health treatment through Postpartum Support International. I have worked with a wide range of ages and in many different settings including intensive community based treatment, psychiatric inpatient stabilization units, hospital emergency rooms, and office based counseling. Currently I am offering flexible evening and Saturday telehealth appointments to meet the needs of individuals with busy schedules.
