I believe the key to change lies in cultivating a safe, strong therapeutic relationship. Through a developmental lens, I aim to understand each person’s history and how their unique story informs current challenges. I feel passionate about working with patients from diverse backgrounds and utilize a culturally-informed approach when understanding life experiences and associated thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In conjunction with this psychodynamic, relationally-driven approach, I help patients identify a clear presenting concern, develop goals, and integrate appropriate evidence-based practice tailored to their specific needs.

I am a general practitioner licensed in California and New York, with experience working with individuals across the lifespan, treating a range of presenting concerns, including: complex trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, body-focused repetitive behaviors, life transitions, minority stress, and family conflict.
