About

​

I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in trauma and self-actualization. I currently work in the development of innovative treatments for mental health, including psychedelics. I am an adjunct instructor at the University of Denver's Graduate School of Professional Psychology, having previously served as the Director of the Substance Use Disorder Specialty. Teaching and training graduate psychology students is something I am particularly passionate about. Additionally, I have worked in the Denver Metro area for several years, as well as New York, Boston, and Los Angeles. During my years of clinical experience, I came to realize that traditional models of therapy were less efficient than I or my clients wanted them to be. I became focused on finding methods of collaborating with clients to help them recognize  their patterns, make sense of the pattern's origins, and re-write the stories that maintain them. The most important part in this process is working together to identify where you want to shift your way of being to create a life of joy, fulfillment and purpose.

 

I have completed Level 1 training in Internal Family Systems, and have received certifications through Polaris, Integrative Psychiatry Institute, and MAPS for psychedelic integration support. For more information on Psychedelic Integration Coaching, please click here.
