Background and approach
Her background includes clinical work on weight-related eating concerns such as binge eating and stress-related eating. During a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco, she developed brief approaches that combine mindfulness and motivational interviewing to reduce stress-related eating in adults.
Her clinical approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness therapy, and client-centered care. In sessions she helps people identify patterns, practice concrete skills, and set values-based goals that fit everyday life. Dr.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when strong feelings are present. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck from unhelpful habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that maintain problems like anxiety, low mood, and eating difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and awareness practices to reduce reactivity and support healthier habits, which can be helpful for stress-related eating and emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what fits the person’s life and preferences. Sessions are paced to practice skills and build routines that carry over between meetings.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can support between-session check-ins and brief coaching moments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while still working with a licensed professional.
