About Me
Hi, it’s nice to meet you! Whatever reason you are here I want to welcome you, because beginning therapy is not always an easy process. I am a Clinical Psychologist licensed in California (PSY 29465) and I strive to help clients reach their goals using warmth, compassion, and collaboration. I enjoy working with clients who are seeking assistance for a variety of needs, including, trauma, different types of stressors and anxiety, and depression. I also have a special interest in working with veterans, active duty military, and their families, and am the Team Lead on the PTSD Clinical Team with the VA Northern California Healthcare System. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, reading, and travelling.

Getting Started
Please call or email to schedule a free 15 minute consultation appointment to see if services are a good fit for you. If we both decide to proceed with treatment you will be given access to a secure online portal where you will be asked to review treatment policies in more detail (including the Privacy Policy and Good Faith Estimate), pay for your appointments, and use secure messaging. You will then be scheduled for an intake appointment to discuss the reasons you are seeking treatment in more detail to collaboratively develop a treatment plan to help you meet your goals.
Fees and Insurance
I accept Lyra Health and private pay for services, and my rates are comparable to rates charged in the Bay Area. I do not accept insurance, but I am happy to provide a statement for you to submit to your health insurance company for reimbursement if your insurance company accepts out-of-network providers. Please contact your health insurance company before you schedule an appointment if you are interested in using your insurance to obtain reimbursement.
