My Story
I'm a clinical psychologist passionate about helping clients from young children (ages 5 and above) to teens, college age students, and adults, who are struggling with uncomfortable stress and anxiety symptoms learn effective strategies to face and overcome their fears and worries and gain confidence, security, and resiliency. I use a cognitive behavioral acceptance based therapy model that includes a mindfulness approach to work with children and their families to modify behavior and feelings and to help people regain their sense of direction and growth while increasing independence.
I moved to Colorado in the summer of 2008 to complete my pre-doctoral internship at the Childrenâs Hospital in Denver. Even though I grew up on the east coast, I knew Colorado was where I was meant to stay. While I maintain close ties to my family and friends out east, I absolutely love everything the Colorado lifestyle has to offer from the spectacular nature and scenery, to the active yet laid back and intellectual culture, and the sunny yet seasonal characteristics. I have found my best self here and seek to continue to grow and thrive while raising my daughter.
I previously had a private practice in South Florida so it was a natural transition to set up shop in Boulder after I completed my training. I feel so blessed and fortunate to have worked with and helped so many kids, teens, adults, and their families. I am grateful everyday that I get to do what I love and that my clients trust me and my methods to help them overcome lifeâs struggles. It is beyond rewarding to see people improve and see the strategies work. Even when there are setbacks I know that is part of of the process of growing and learning. Without challenges and failures we donât grow. It is how we utilize and what we learn from our obstacles and struggles that changes us for the better to be our strongest selves.
