Telehealth Psychological Services for Adults in Washington State
As a licensed psychologist in Washington State since 2002, I have dedicated my career to supporting adults through life's most challenging transitions. With a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Washington and specialized training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy under Dr. Marsha M. Linehan, I bring over two decades of expertise to my practice. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic techniques, emphasizing mindfulness and acceptance to address anxiety, depression, grief, and late-life challenges. Having worked in diverse clinical settings, including Harborview Medical Center and the University of Washington, I established my private practice in 2010 to focus on personalized care.I prioritize creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions and develop strategies for growth. My experience with neuropsychological assessment and telehealth services allows me to serve a broad range of clients with flexibility and precision. I am committed to ethical practice, continuous professional development, and fostering resilience in individuals navigating complex life changes.
