I am a psychologist, who has been licensed to practice psychology in Colorado since 1994. Before moving to Colorado in 1995, I attended graduate school and worked in California. I also earned a law degree in 1983 from Tulane Law School and practiced law for three years (in Louisiana and New Mexico) before going back to school to earn a Master’s and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology.
Although I no longer practice law, I still use my legal education in my work today. My psychology practice is divided into two main areas: psychotherapy and psychological evaluations. I work in both domestic relations and criminal law.
In criminal law, I conduct psychological evaluations for competency, insanity and mitigation at sentencing. While the bulk of my work in this area is defense-oriented, I have been appointed by both Federal and State Courts and have worked for both the state and defense as well as various probation offices (both federal and state).
In domestic relations, I conduct psychological evaluations in the context of Parental Responsibilities Evaluations (PRE’s) or Child and Family Investigations (CFI’s). I also offer Divorce-Specific Psychotherapy and Consultation for parties going through a PRE or CFI.
I also provide psychotherapy for adults, adolescents, couples and families. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions about these services.
