About
What I do
The clinical focus of my work is on innovative approaches to therapy, where I consistently strive to incorporate the latest developments in therapy. I currently lead a large regional team in digital mental health providing mindfulness, evidenced-based approaches via an app-based treatment program. I also assist with scaling interventions and consult on therapist and client experiences.
I see people individually in my private practice where I work with an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approach, using mindfulness and values to create change and live one's best life.

What is therapy or coaching like? I help you identify your core values and what it would mean for you to be living your best life. We look at barriers and experiences that are getting in the way from being in that place. Therapy and coaching is active and directive, teaching mindfulness skills, adding new coping skills to your toolkit and collaborating on life changes. My overall approach is rooted in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy as well as Compassion-Focused Therapy.
