My goal as a psychologist is to create a safe, supportive, productive space where people can explore their emotions, heal from trauma, and develop a greater understanding of themselves. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or difficulty in adjusting to change or stress, I’m here to help you develop tools and coping skills and gain insight that can help you in your own personal growth.

My training as a clinical psychologist has also been diverse, ranging from such varied environments as private practice to intensive outpatient to correctional. These experiences certainly better equip me to work with a wide range of referrals and concerns. From them I have learned the capacity to experience psychological pain is a human commonality, irrespective of a person’s background or whatever walk of life they may come from. As a psychologist, I do not judge the source of a person’s discomfort, but instead I understand my role is to help a person feel better in their own skin.

To achieve this goal, I have been trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches, and work in an integrative way to be most helpful. Some therapeutic approaches I frequently work with include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
• Exposure Therapy
• Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

I also provide psychological assessments for concerns including:

• Neurodivergence/learning differences including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
• Mood and personality

• Location: Based in Westport, Connecticut, offering both in-person and virtual sessions.
• Insurance: Currently accepting Aetna.
• Payment Methods: I accept credit card and cash.

Free Consultation: I offer a complimentary 20-minute phone or virtual consultation to explore how we can work together and see if we’re the right fit.
