I have been a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania since 1991 and, through PSYPACT, have been licensed to provide telepsychology in the District of Columbia and forty U.S. states since 2020.

As a specialist in Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD), I provide evidence-based therapy to those whose grief remains intensely painful or disruptive for an extended period.  I am also trained to diagnose and treat related conditions such as PTSD and Major Depressive Disorder when appropriate.

My specialization in the diagnosis and treatment of Prolonged Grief Disorder allows me to work with newly bereaved individuals in a way that helps to decrease the likelihood of complications that may increase the risk of later developing Prolonged Grief Disorder.

In addition to my private practice, I am an affiliate of the Center for Prolonged Grief at Columbia University, where I co-facilitate continuing education workshops for mental health professionals on the diagnosis and treatment of Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD). I also serve as an adjunct lecturer in Columbia University’s  Master of Social Work (MSW) program.
