My story

My Journey To Becoming A Psychologist

Sometimes life goes off script–I understand this both personally and professionally. I'm a partner of 21 years and after several years of infertility, became a parent by way of domestic adoption to our two incredible kiddos. Familiar with caring for special needs and nurturing relationships through the ups and downs, I'm also a breast cancer survivor.

Just like many of my clients, I had an idea of what my life was going to look like and then stuff happened. Courage and joy are two important things I’m learning, alongside grief, to get through it all. Today I know that living wholeheartedly after life throws stuff your way is possible.

My many life experiences have helped me have compassion for a lot of things and shaped the therapist I am today.

Helping People Is A Gift To Others, But Also Myself

Being a psychologist is an honor that I do not take lightly and am deeply grateful for. I love helping people find their courage and joy to live more fully into who they are and witnessing them achieve more fulfilling lives. The most rewarding thing about being a psychologist is seeing a person walk away lighter, more free, and excited about their life.

I am committed to helping you discover healing and joy.

I Have Compassion For People And Bring Clarifying Presence and Non-judgemental Warmth to Sessions

I have a natural ability to help clients heal their past and live into the present with more freedom and joy.

People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can be fully present for people's stories, even if they are difficult stories.

Our Sessions Are Focused On You

Sessions will provide you with the space to feel what you need to feel. In feeling safe and comfortable, you'll be able to gain clarity and relief.

It's important to me to provide a collaborative safe space where we focus on your healing. There isn't a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. Our sessions will fit your specific needs and concerns.

The professional stuff

My Professional Background

I received a doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2006 and had the honor of beginning my career working at a Veterans' Hospital for over a decade. During that time, I obtained extensive training in trauma-focused treatments (EMDR, CPT, PE). Currently, in addition to my private practice, I'm a Contract Therapist & Clinical Supervisor at Onsite Workshops near Nashville, TN & The Oaks in Southern CA, where I supervise therapists and lead groups as well as individual & couples intensives.
