I am a Clinical Psychologist in Las Vegas, Nevada. I am licensed in Nevada and California, and authorized to practice telepsychology in 35 states across the U.S.
I have over 25 years of specialized education, training, and experience in the provision of psychological services to individuals, couples, groups, and organizations. My career has focused on "treatment resistant" cases and underserved populations.
I work primarily with adults, young adults, and couples. I have a special interest in working with healthcare providers, fellow mental health professionals, and trainees.
I specialize in evaluation and therapy that create unique, safe, and supportive relationships in which individuals and couples — struggling with most any of life's certain difficulties — are welcomed to embark upon their own unique adventures toward greater freedom, connection, and fulfillment.
I am a depth psychologist with an approach to psychotherapy that is evidence-based, relational, and psychoanalytically informed. I draw from my training in research-based psychotherapy approaches including:
Supportive-Expressive Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (SE), Stoic Mindfulness and Resilience Training (SMRT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy (GMCT), Schema Therapy (ST), Mentalization Based Therapy (MBT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I hold a Certificate of Effectiveness awarded by A Collaborative Outcomes Research Network through independent statistical analysis of my therapy outcomes. I have completed Level 3 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I am former Vice President, Certified Consultant, and current member of the A. K. Rice Institute for the Study of Social Systems.
