I am a clinical psychologist committed to helping those who seek greater understanding, connection, and stability in relationships with self and others. Specialty areas include attachment, BPD spectrum, "sense of self," depression, anxiety, young adult development, leadership, and relationship issues.
Depending on patients' needs and preferences, I emphasize different approaches in therapy. I consider multiple layers of human life, including the developmental, relational, behavioral, cultural, and spiritual. I learn from my patients, trusted supervisors, a wide range of research evidence, and my own experience.
I love applying advances in research to how I think about my patients' care. My work is informed by relational psychodynamic and cognitive/behavioral approaches (including ACT, DBT, CBT), and by my background in yoga, somatics, and mindfulness. With couples, I also incorporate PACT, EFT, Gottman, and other appoaches. Above all, I think my job is to listen to you really well, while bringing curiosity, challenge, and kindness toward your unique human experience.
I strive to make my practice accessible and affirming, and invite questions and concerns about how I might be able to serve someone with your background and identities.
I am currently accepting new patients.
I am currently enrolling for a November to December 2026 time-limited group focused on attachment.
My practice offers individual therapy, couples therapy, and groups. I also love to offer therapeutic assessments, a kind of "intensive" focused on understanding what you need and why you might still be struggling. I am not in network with commercial insurance. Sessions are $200 per hour and may be eligible for partial reimbursement by your health insurer. I am a Licensed Psychologist - Doctorate in Vermont (048.0134240), Massachusetts (PSY10001617) and in all 44 PsyPACT states (21515).

Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, I earned my B.A. in Psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles, and my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Vermont. During my doctoral training, I worked at an outpatient community clinic focusing on short-term behavioral therapies, and at a specialty clinic serving refugees, New Americans, and survivors of torture. I completed my clinical internship at the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Fort Logan, a state psychiatric hospital in Denver serving people with psychiatric concerns and life circumstances resulting in long-term inpatient mental health care. I then returned to Vermont to for a postdoctoral fellowship and subsequent Staff Psychologist position at the University of Vermont Medical Center, working in the inpatient psychiatry department and primarily serving people in suicidal crisis or other acute states of distress. In 2020, I opened my private practice. I also recently spent a year providing individual and group therapy part-time at PATH at Stone Summit, a residential treatment center in southern Vermont primarily serving young adults with trauma and self-harm concerns.
