Helping you reach your goals
through science-tested methods.

Currently accepting new telehealth clients located in California, New York, and Texas

Hi — I’m Dr. Amy

I’m a Licensed Psychologist (CA PSY 33236; NY: 26268; TX PSY 39442) specializing in evidence-based therapies. I received my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at UCLA, where my research and clinical training focused on improving our understanding and treatment of emotion-related disorders including anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use.

My mission is to provide my clients with psychotherapy that is informed by science and tailored to their individual needs, goals, and preferences. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which I help clients develop the skill set necessary to independently cope with the challenges they’re facing and build a life worth living.

I specialize in working with clients seeking help with issues including:

Social Anxiety

Worry

Panic Attacks

Obsessions & Compulsions

Emotion Dysregulation

Trauma

Stress

Dual Diagnosis

Depression

I’ve received intensive training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety and mood-related challenges through UCLA’s Anxiety & Depression Research Center, Innovative Treatment Center, and Integrative Substance Abuse Programs. I completed my APA-accredited internship at the Veteran Affairs San Diego Healthcare System. I have formal training and experience in delivering dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) gained through my predoctoral externship at Harbor UCLA. 

Prior to moving fully into private practice, I led several programs at UCLA’s Screening and Treatment for Anxiety & Depression Clinic (STAND) and contributed to research projects associated with UCLA’s Depression Grand Challenge. From 2020 to 2023, I served as an Assistant Professor of Psychology at
California State University, Dominguez Hills.
