Message to clients

Access to quality, specialized mental healthcare is important to me which is why I choose to work with insurance. As a Psychologist in the privileged position to provide care and support to students, professionals, couples, families, and broader systems, I hold a deep commitment to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of my work. I approach my role through an integrative, trauma-informed, and social justice-oriented lens, one that recognizes and challenges the systemic barriers that disproportionately impact communities. I guide and advocate as needed and help those I work with navigate systems that can fail us all. This is at the core of how I think about care and healing and is foundational to ethical and effective mental health care.
