My work begins with understanding how people adapt—
and continues with expanding what becomes possible from there.
For more than twenty years, I have worked as a clinical psychologist across hospitals, academic medical centers, rehabilitation settings, and private practice.
Across all of these contexts, one question has consistently shaped my work:
What allows people to adapt in ways that increase both resilience and well-being over time?
In practice, this question has taken me across health psychology, trauma, women’s health, rehabilitation, executive functioning, leadership, and performance psychology.
What I have learned is that psychological distress is rarely located in a single domain. It emerges from the interaction between systems—relationships, biology, environment, culture, and lived experience.
When we begin to understand those systems more clearly, patterns that once felt fixed often begin to shift.
This work is both reflective and practical. We slow experience down enough to understand how it is organized, then translate that understanding into change that can be lived outside the therapy room.
Alongside my clinical work, my background in movement and performance informs how I understand regulation, resilience, and embodiment. For some individuals, this includes integrating attention to the body as part of the therapeutic process—not as performance, but as another layer of how experience is organized.
My work is grounded in curiosity, collaboration, and respect, and the belief that people are shaped by the systems they live within—and capable of reshaping them in return.
