About Me

I am fascinated by how people become who they are. Even as a (nerdy) kid, I loved books about child development and stories about helping kids heal. I followed this passion into the study of psychology.

I love to learn and to try to understand as much as possible about life, the universe and everything!  I am a seeker and healer at heart, and my work is based on connecting with others with deep respect. I help people find their innate gifts and their own paths to healing; discovering inner power they may not have known they had.  

I started out my academic career pretty poorly as a kid, but my love of learning helped me overcome my learning issues. I went to Pomona College in Claremont, CA (a small liberal arts college) with time at Oxford University.  I was graduated with honors (including Phi Beta Kappa, Cum Laude and Sigma Xi science award).  I majored in psychology with a minor emphasis in literature, but I saved time for storytelling, juggling, and working with children who had been abused. I then received my master’s and doctorate degrees at the University of Colorado at Boulder in a joint program focusing on child clinical and developmental psychology.  I was trained as a researcher and published several articles in the area of child abuse before I decided to focus solely on clinical work. I completed my internship and postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Colorado Health Science Center, where I completed my studies “with Merit”.  Since then, I taught graduate school courses, worked at mental health centers and in the Child Development Center at The Children’s Hospital and also JFK Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities.  I am currently in private practice.

When I am not at work as a psychologist, I seek out magic wherever it hides!  My love of learning, connecting with others, and creating remain central to who I am.  I write stories, play music, and create things of all sorts.  I enjoy nature and am nuts about animals.  Reading is a great joy!
