I have a passion for working with individuals living with chronic medical illness as a clinical health psychologist, and to help patients live healthier, more resilient lives while coping with medical difficulties. I have experience with a wide range of medical diagnoses, and specialize in individuals living with the special challenges of rare and/or genetic diseases. I believe that health is more than just the sum of our physical ailments, and aim to help clients develop and increase an overall sense of well-being in their daily lives.
