Primarily, I provide bariatric pre-surgical weight loss psychological evaluations. I also offer brief adult individual psychotherapy for pre- and post-bariatric surgical patients. Please call to inquire about my availability for bariatric-specific behavioral health consultations and therapy. My office can provide referrals to other providers for non-bariatric mental health services. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer an individually tailored approach, using evidence-based interventions, so that clients may attain the personal change and growth they are seeking.
Please note that I do not provide medication management (please consult a psychiatrist, PCP, or internist) or therapy to individuals under age 21.
