About My Clients
I am a licensed clinical psychologist for children, adolescents, and adults. I have extensive experience in evidence-based treatments for anxiety, OCD, tics, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and behavior challenges (ADHD, tempur tantrums). My patients learn coping skills so that they are able to overcome challenges, reach their goals, and live by their values.
My Background and Approach
I am a child, adolescent, and adult licensed psychologist with over a decade of experience in hospital, clinic, academic medical, college counseling, and school settings. My expertise lies in CBT and exposure therapy for OCD, anxiety, and related disorders. I also specialize in Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) for tics and body-focused repetitive behaviors (e.g., hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting). I am a PCIT certified therapist and provide parent behavioral training for ADHD and child behavior challenges. Currently I am the Associate Director of the UCLA Pediatric OCD IOP Program. Previously, I was a Clinical Supervisor at Rogers Behavioral Health and a psychologist at UCLA Child OCD, Anxiety, and Tic Disorders Program. I completed my PsyD at Rutgers University, internship at Harvard Medical/Boston Children’s Hospital, and my postdoctoral fellowship at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I opened my private practice to provide patients with compassionate evidence-based care tailored to their values, goals, and culture. It takes courage to seek therapy, and I am dedicated to creating a warm and inviting place where you feel supported and encouraged to grow. I genuinely believe all of my patients deserve exceptional care and a chance to thrive.
