Hey there,

I BECAME A THERAPIST BECAUSE I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT CREATING A SAFE, SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT WHERE INDIVIDUALS CAN EXPLORE THEIR FEELINGS, CONFRONT THEIR CHALLENGES, AND ULTIMATELY FIND A PATH TO PERSONAL GROWTH.

As a person-centered therapist, my deepest commitment is to provide you with the unwavering support, guidance, and tools you need to embrace and live your best life. If you’ve been navigating the challenges of depression, anxiety, or the stresses of daily life, I want to honor your courage in choosing to show up for yourself and prioritize your well-being.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults around anxiety and depression, parenting concerns, family and relationship conflict, disordered eating and body image concerns, infertility, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, ADHD, Autism Spectrum, and grief and loss. I utilize interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Somatic Therapy, Experiential Therapy, and Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). These approaches allow us to explore and understand the patterns that may be holding you back, while also empowering you to connect with your body and emotions, facilitating meaningful change in your life.

In our therapy space, you’ll find not just practical solutions and unique insights, but a safe haven where your feelings are valued and understood. I draw upon person-centered and solution-focused methods to help you uncover the strengths within you and work toward your goals.

I believe in the power of a positive therapeutic relationship, where trust and empathy flourish. Together, we will craft a personalized plan that aligns with your values and reflects your unique needs and desires. If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and lasting change, I invite you to take this important step and schedule an appointment with me today. You deserve to live a life filled with joy and fulfillment, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. 

Education: I graduated with my Masters in Social Work from Fordham University.
