Specialist in Bariatric Psychological Evaluations
Since 2012, I have dedicated my practice to supporting individuals navigating the life-changing path of bariatric surgery. My journey began as an intern in a specialized bariatric office, where I developed a foundational expertise that has evolved into a career-long passion.
I take immense pride in being a supportive partner during this transition. I understand that the clinical process can feel daunting, which is why I ensure every evaluation is conducted with compassion, care, and clinical precision. You can rest assured that your assessment will meet the rigorous guidelines required by both your surgeon and your insurance provider, clearing the way for your next steps with confidence.
Beyond the Office
I am a firm believer in the power of self-care. When I’m not working with clients, I’m usually recharging with my two children and our dog. Whether we are camping, hiking, or heading out on a new family excursion, I find my balance in nature. I’m also an avid reader and a Pilates enthusiast.
