Ascending Resilience LLC

Hello, I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience specializing in health psychology, chronic pain, and related mood difficulties. At Ascending Resilience, my focus is on helping individuals build resilience—the ability to adapt and recover from adversity, trauma, or chronic stress. The phoenix, a symbol of renewal and strength, represents this journey of rising from hardship toward healing. My goal is to empower clients with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate life’s challenges and foster lasting psychological well-being. I offer evidence-based treatment, primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is proven effective through extensive research. Specifically, CBT for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP) is the most supported psychological intervention for managing chronic pain. While it may not eliminate pain entirely, it can significantly reduce its impact and improve overall functioning and quality of life.
