Education & Training

I received my bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of New Hampshire where I also worked as an EMT at a local ambulance company throughout my undergraduate career. I then earned my Psy.D. from William James College in Newton, MA -  close to where I was raised. Throughout my graduate training, I participated in four practicums prior to moving out to Colorado where I eventually completed my doctoral internship here at UNC's Counseling Center.

My training has allowed me to work at a variety of mental health agencies including inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP). These practicums all involved the application of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) for individuals presenting across a wide range of both ages and diagnoses including personality disorders, eating disorders, and major mental illnesses. I completed my doctoral dissertation on the experience of empathy and how it relates to the acknowledgment of White privilege and I remain passionate about culturally competent care.

Current Roles

I am staff psychologist here at the University of Norther Colorado’s Counseling Center where I also completed my doctoral internship last year. I currently see both individual clients, both student and staff, as well as run a Dialectical Behavioral Therapy group once a week focusing on emotional regulation and effective decision making. Additionally, I see clients on a walk-in basis to perform intakes and manage acute crises.

Therapeutic & Supervision Approaches

The basis of my therapeutic approach stems from an interpersonal orientation through which the relationship between my clients’ and myself is emphasized and explored. I tend to take a more behavioral perspective and, not only process an individual’s history, but also discuss tangible behavioral interventions that can improved a client’s functioning in both the long and short term.
