Narrative of Services:

My practice offers therapy and testing services for children, teens, and young adults. Approximately 90% of my clinical work is focused on the treatment of anxiety-based disorders and OCD. I provide I-CBT and ERP integrated with ACT for OCD treatment. I also offer CBIT for Tourette Syndrome and other tic disorders and HRT/ComB intervention for trichotillomania, excoriation, and other body focused repetitive behaviors. I am trained in and offer Supportive Parenting Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) for anxiety, OCD, ARFID, and Failure to Launch. I also provide cognitive behavioral intervention for other areas of clinical concern.

Training Description:

I received my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I completed my doctoral internship with Kaiser Permanente in San Diego with postdoctoral specialization in working with children and adolescents.
Over the past 15 years, I have specialized in treating OCD, anxiety disorders, tic disorders, BFRBs, and related conditions. Additional training experiences include: intensive training in ERP with University of Pennsylvania and BTTI faculty, advanced ERP trainings and consultations with members of the IOCDF Scientific Advisory Board, intensive training and consultation in I-CBT for OCD, CBIT certification, and training in general and expanded applications of SPACE.

Diversity Statement:

Multicultural sensitivity is a cornerstone of both my professional practice and personal values. I am committed to delivering effective, equitable, and culturally responsive care that is respectful and inclusive. I strive to understand each individual’s unique experiences within the broader sociocultural contexts that shape their lives, approaching this work with humility and openness.
To enhance my competence in these areas, I have completed advanced training in the treatment of LGBTQIA+ youth and have pursued extensive education in the assessment and treatment of neurodiverse individuals. My goal is to provide affirming, evidence-based care that meets the diverse needs of my clients.
