Experience
I am a licensed clinical psychologist, practicing therapy in Tarrant County, Texas. I am also licensed in California.
I have experience helping people of all ages with a wide range of mental health problems in a medical center and in private practice. Currently, I work exclusively with adults but my career began as a child and family therapist which I credit as my foundation to understanding relationships; the formation and nature of attachments and our ability to negotiate and navigate through them.
My work is informed by psychodynamic training and education in childhood development and is combined with my practical and tailored application of family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness interventions.
