Clinical interests:

I am a psychologist in private practice offering comprehensive services to children, adolescents, and adults. At ZPS I offer individual, couple, and family therapy, and parenting guidance across those populations.  I also conduct general mental health and cognitive/academic assessments, as well as specialized trauma and attachment assessments. Additionally, I offer workshops and presentations on various topics within the field of Clinical Psychology, and I provide clinical supervision and professional consultation services. ZPS is a generalist practice offering assessment and treatment of a wide range of clinical issues. I have also received specialized training in the assessment and treatment of trauma and its consequences, including attachment disturbances and disorders, dissociation, struggles with sexuality, and personality disorders. Supervisees can be involved in offering psychotherapy as well as conducting assessments.  Opportunities are also available for observing consultations and attending workshops/training, most of which I offer through video-based telemental health (OTN).  Some involvement in telemental health services, beyond observation, is possible.

Topics for workshops, seminars: Trauma/attachment psychopathology (post-traumatic stress, complex developmental trauma, attachment disturbance and disorders). Contemporary psychodynamic approaches to treatment (attachment-based therapies, EFT, IPT). Suicide and self-harm. Working with personality disorders.
