About me

“I serve adults who are experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties and those who wish to live more fully. I seek to be attuned and collaborative. My style is heavily influenced by acceptance and commitment therapy and various cognitive behavioral therapies, which I balance with holding space for my clients’ inner wisdom to guide our work. I seek to bring humility and curiosity to the complexities that cultural and family-of-origin influences present to my clients.”

Jay is a partner at PBH where he contributes to the administration and development of the practice. He also directs the PBH’s Trauma Recovery Clinic, where he seeks to facilitate access to excellent care and to foster professional support and development.
He has conducted research in clinical psychology for almost 20 years, with an emphasis in evaluating psychotherapies’ efficacy. He has served in various capacities on randomized controlled trials of psychotherapies for problems such as posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and social anxiety and has (co)authored many peer-reviewed publications.
