Wherever you are when you arrive, that is where we start. My approach is to meet you where you are comfortable, drawing on evidence-based interventions to help you move toward the goals that matter to you. I believe the relationship between us is central to that work, so I try to hold the balance between clear professional boundaries and care that feels genuinely warm and attentive to you as an individual. I welcome conversations about difference, I am well versed in the experience of racial trauma, and I am attentive to the needs of LGBTQIA+ clients.
Therapy and Psychological Assessment
I work with adults 18 and older for individual therapy and psychological assessment. Much of my practice centers on assessments focused on diagnostic clarity, cognitive decline, and chronic pain, alongside ongoing individual therapy. I have extensive experience with individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, suicidality, first responder work, military service, incarceration, and serious and persistent mental illness. I am EMDR trained.
Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME) Services I am now accepting QME evaluations in California through Equity Evaluations. As a QME, I provide independent psychological evaluations in workers' compensation matters, with thorough, well-documented reports for injured workers, attorneys, and claims administrators. My background in trauma, chronic pain, first responder populations, and cognitive assessment brings depth to this work. If you are seeking a QME panel selection or have questions about scheduling, please reach out.
