About Me
I am a doctoral-level licensed psychologist based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, offering telehealth services to clients in North Carolina, New York, and PSYPACT participating states (currently thirty-nine).

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Comparative Literature from the University of Copenhagen and a Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. My professional training includes work at Northwestern University, The University of Chicago, VA hospitals, and Yale University.
I am a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of clinical experience, including extensive training in diagnostic interviewing and psychological assessment. I have conducted comprehensive diagnostic evaluations across a range of clinical settings, with advanced training at Northwestern University, University of Chicago, and Yale University. I also conduct pre-employment and fitness-for-duty psychological evaluations for local and federal law enforcement agencies, as well as psychological pre-screening services for major television production companies.
