With over 13 years of experience working in entertainment and media, I excel at treating artists and creative professionals.

My Background and Approach

My therapeutic methods are flexible and individualized, incorporating cognitive behavioral techniques, relational psychodynamic work, and mindfulness. I am also trained in conducting Exposure and Response Prevention therapy for anxiety, panic disorder, and OCD.
