Biography

As a psychologist with the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, I specialize in treating adult patients with chronic health conditions and disabilities. I commonly work with patients experiencing chronic pain, patients who have been diagnosed with cancer and people who have sustained spinal cord or other serious injuries. I also serve as the rehabilitation psychology lead for the interdisciplinary Post-COVID Recovery Program.

My approach to psychotherapy treatment includes a focus on acceptance and commitment therapy. I am passionate about assisting patients in coping and adapting to changes resulting from chronic health conditions or a disability. I strive every day to support patients and help them lead engaged, meaningful and fulfilling lives.

My clinical areas of focus also include multiculturalism and intersectionality within the therapy process. I am committing to addressing ableism, reducing health care disparities within the health care system and to working within multidisciplinary teams to support whole-health initiatives that benefit our patients.

In addition to my clinical and scholarly responsibilities, my role includes helping to educate the next generation of providers. I am a clinical assistant professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring new places, playing board games and being with friends and family.
