Education: Doctorate of Clinical Psychology
Who I Work With: All Students
How I work with students: I approach individual therapy and consultation from a trauma-informed framework that includes multicultural, interpersonal, and feminist perspectives, and use mindfulness-based, emotion-focused, and experiential techniques. I work to be grounded in an awareness of intersectionality and ways privilege, oppression, trauma, (dis)stress and grief influence our psychological health and wellbeing. I appreciate working with students navigating life changes, adjustment, relationship concerns, identity development, giftedness, neurodivergence, mitigating academic burnout.
