Welcome. I am a Bay Area native and love raising my young family in San Francisco.

I am a highly trained and skilled psychologist and deliver a high caliber of care to my clients. Our work together will ensure that you have a knowledgeable therapist to work alongside, who knows you and your goals well, and can promote the insight and skills to help you achieve those goals. The deliberately small size of my practice affords me the ability to treat each of my patients with a highly personalized touch.

I have extensive training and experience in providing evidence-based treatments and specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), for a variety of problems, including: bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, PTSD and trauma, substance use disorders, self harming behaviors and personality disorders. My work with couples and families has also become some of the most rewarding in my practice.

My undergraduate degree is from Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT and I began my clinical and research endeavors at Massachusetts General Hospital working with adults with bipolar disorder. I completed my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology at UCLA’s top ranked program, where my research focused on the impact of stress on the course of bipolar disorder. I then completed a pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the San Francisco VA / UCSF Medical Center. Prior to joining Bridge to Bridge Psychotherapy in 2021, I worked in the Department of Psychiatry at Kaiser San Rafael for nearly 10 years.
