I have a level one certification in TEAM CBT. In addition, I am currently completing the work to become a certified Beck Clinician through the Beck Institute. I have experience leading CBT groups in residential, PHP, and IOP levels of care and continue to use it in private practice.

I believe that everyone has the power to heal themselves, and therapy is a space for that to happen. I approach therapy with the knowledge that each person is different, but by building a strong connection with empathy, understanding, and compassion, healing can begin to take place. I understand that beginning therapy can be intimidating and I work to create an environment where a person can process without judgment. Deciding to reach out is the first step.

In order to provide care remotely, I utilize telehealth options. Telehealth is therapy via video or phone rather than in person. I have been offering telehealth sessions prior to coronavirus, and during this time to prioritize everyone's physical and mental health I am continuing to offer telehealth sessions as an option rather than in person sessions. That means my individual sessions, family sessions, and group sessions are either through a secure video platform or over the phone.

In addition to private practice, I have previously worked in treatment centers treating eating disorders/disordered eating and body images issues. At Mindfulpath I currently offer not only individual therapy but also groups for those struggling with these issues. For example, I have a process group that's called "Who Am I Without My Eating Disorder?" that's currently offered via telehealth now.

I currently offer ERP (exposure response prevention) in private practice, a technique often used in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder. I have prior experience using ERP in residential, PHP, and IOP levels of care in addition to using it in private practice now. I also have CBT training and am finishing my work to become a Beck Certified Clinician; and these trainings have added to my ERP skill set.
