I have over 20 years' experience successfully working with clients using CBT. I have used this approach in treating a wide range of anxiety concerns (for example, social phobia, panic, worry, and health anxiety), as well as depression and post-traumatic stress. I keep current on developments in CBT through reading, professional conference attendance, and participation in continuing education seminars. As a psychology professor, I have conducted and published research relevant to CBT.

I have over 20 years' experience successfully working with clients using exposure. I have used this approach in treating a wide range of anxiety concerns (e.g., social phobia, panic, health anxiety, claustrophobia) as well as post-traumatic stress. I keep current on developments in exposure therapy through reading, professional conference attendance, and participation in continuing education seminars. I have also published research examining use of exposure in treating post-traumatic stress.

I have over 20 years' experience working with clients who have experienced traumas, including sexual assaults and physical assaults as well as accidents and unexpected deaths of loved ones. I use scientifically supported approaches to treating the kinds of concerns that can result from trauma, including cognitive processing therapy and prolonged exposure therapy to treat post-traumatic stress and cognitive behavioral therapy to treat depression.

I have over 20 years' experience treating anxiety using time- and cost-effective, scientifically-supported approaches. I work with children, teens, and adults experiencing many types of anxiety, including worry, panic, social anxiety, health anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I also work with people whose perfectionism tends to affect their ability to enjoy life.

I have extensive experience working with folks who have experienced trauma both directly (e.g., sexual abuse, physical abuse) and indirectly (e.g., intergenerational). I utilize evidence- based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy to uncover the impact of trauma on beliefs and behaviors and decrease this impact on day-to-day life. I've also published research relevant to the treatment of trauma-related concerns.
