My Story . . .

I am a scientist at heart and I deeply care about my patients. I trained at one of the top clinical psychology graduate programs in the country and have worked under the mentorship of world-renowned experts in the field, including Dr. Edna Foa, Dr. Lori Zoellner, and Dr. Marsha Linehan.
