About Me

GENERAL: I am licensed clinical psychologist in the state of New York. I enjoy treating individuals across the lifespan, with a special emphasis in working with adolescents and emerging adults. I have extensive experience providing individual therapy as well as parent management training and couple therapy. I specialize in applying evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (including Exposure and Response Prevention), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness to treat individuals suffering from a range of mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, attention and executive functioning challenges, and disordered eating behaviors. 

EDUCATION & TRAINING: Before transitioning to psychology, I earned a B.S. and M.S. in Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines. I then completed post-baccalaureate studies at Columbia University and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Fordham University. I completed a Pre-doctoral Internship at Bellevue Hospital Center and Post-doctoral training at the Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Research.  I also trained at  the Iona College Counseling Center, St. Barnabas Hospital, and Lenox Hill Hospital.

LIFE: When I am not working, I enjoy living in New York City with my husband and son. I love city life and all that it offers.  I also love cooking and adventuring home to the Colorado mountains to ski, hike, and spend time with family.
