About Me

​

I am currently a postdoctoral psychology fellow at the VA San Diego, and am studying pain and its treatment. Previously, I completed my clinical psychology doctorate in Dr. Joanna Arch's lab at the University of Colorado Boulder, and my predoctoral internship at the University of California San Diego.

​

My Research

​

My research addresses a few central questions:

  • How can we improve psychotherapy and other treatments for chronic pain?

  • Why do psychotherapies work differently for different people?

  • What are the mechanisms of psychotherapies? In other words, how do they help people to make meaningful changes in their lives?

​

My Clinical Work

​

As a clinician, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness-based approaches. My work with each of my clients is a collaboration. I tailor my approach with each client to their preferences and circumstances. I have trained at the VA, the University of Colorado Anschutz, and UC San Diego.
