“THE SECRET OF GETTING AHEAD IS GETTING STARTED”

ABOUT ME
COMPASSIONATE HEALTHCARE WITH A PURPOSE
I believe that each person has the strength not just to survive, but to truly thrive. My approach is empirically-supported, collaborative, non-judgmental, and empathic.
I am particularly passionate about psychological assessment and all it can offer. I provide adoption, behavioral medicine, fitness for duty, independent psychological, psychodiagnostic, and third party reproduction evaluations. As a rehabilitation and health psychologist, I use a "Guiding Framework" (Jutte et al., 2013) to inform each of my assessments, allowing for a comprehensive and holistic evaluation of each individual who is referred.
I offer an initial FREE 15 minute phone consultation. If you need an assessment/evaluation that I have not listed here, please still reach out so that together we can determine next steps for you.
I am available for in-person and telepsychology appointments. I am authorized by the PsyPact Commission to provide telepsychology for clients residing in 40 states.

EXPERIENCE
I have been on faculty at the Johns Hopkins Medical Center and the University of Washington/Harborview Medical Center (Level I Trauma Center). I have taught, supervised and mentored psychology interns, post-doctoral fellows, medical students and academic faculty. I have obtained National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant funding and engaged in NIH-funded research.
After many years in academia and public health, I began my independent practice in 2018. I continue to enjoy engagement in academic collaborations and pursuits.
