Services
Consultation
Do you ever want to discuss a personal matter or challenge with a trusted individual who can provide nonjudgemental and psychologically informed feedback? Do you ever wish you could consult with a psychologist regarding concerns you have about a family member or a friend's mental health? Do you want to help someone who is struggling but don’t know how? The consultation services I offer are meant for situations like these. They are designed to be short-term (even just one meeting), and are not a full course of treatment.
​
Additionally, I offer consultation services to agencies, organizations, businesses, etc. to help them better support the mental health of their employees and the people they serve.
​
Assessment
I offer stand-alone assessment services for most psychological disorders. Whether this is the first time you are seeking a psychological assessment due to concerns about your mental health, or you are looking to get a second opinion on a previously diagnosed psychological disorder, the purpose of a stand-alone assessment is generally to provide diagnostic clarity and follow-up recommendations without necessarily continuing to engage in any other psychological services, such as psychotherapy.
* Please note: Everyone initiating psychotherapy with me undergoes a general intake assessment during the first 1-3 sessions. Additional specialized assessments (for example, personality assessment) may be recommended during the intake assessment or at any time during a course of treatment.
​
Treatment
Individual (one-on-one) psychotherapy services are offered for a wide range of psychological issues and mental health disorders, including personal, interpersonal, and environmental stress; marital, familial, communal, and spiritual conflict; identity confusion and development; anger management difficulties; organization and time management challenges; adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); depression; and anxiety. Further, I specialize in treating unresolved grief and psychological trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), substance use disorders, and behavioral addictions.
​
Additionally, I offer couple therapy for couples experiencing marital challenges or who are looking for strategies to further enhance their marriage. Skills-based psychotherapy groups are also offered once a week.
​
​I primarily utilize classical cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) approaches, while also drawing on psychoanalytic principles and processes. Treatments are delivered flexibly and integratively and are individualized based on each patient’s unique needs, goals, and preferences. Above all, I strive to develop a strong therapeutic relationship with my patients, characterized by warmth, empathy, validation, genuineness, trust, and collaboration on identified treatment goals.
​
Prevention
We shouldn't need to wait until significant mental health issues arise before we seek mental health services. Prevention can go a long way and save us a lot of distress, time, and money. I offer prevention services such as annual or biannual mental health and wellness check-ins, planning for upcoming stressful life events (e.g., holidays, starting college, starting a new job, weddings, parenting, relocating, etc.), or helping people work through mild psychological distress. I also offer psychological enhancement services for individuals who are seeking to gain deeper insight of their inner self, clarify their personal values, develop purpose and meaning in life, and enhance their overall psychological wellbeing.
​
Clinical Supervision
I offer clinical supervision for psychology doctoral students and pre-licensed psychologists. I also offer clinical consultation for licensed mental health practitioners.
​
Education
I offer opportunities to speak to individuals, groups, and organizations to provide education and awareness about mental wellness, mental illness, mental health treatment, and general psychological subjects. Resources on some of this topics are also provided on the Resources page. Additionally, I occasionally share some of my thoughts, opinions, and reflections about the aforementioned topics on The Psycholog.
