Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CASAC, CCTPII
Welcome!
I am a psychotherapist based out of NY and also licensed in NJ offering in-person and virtual appointments. I am a trauma specialist, and work with many of the different aspects of impact of this type of wounding including grief and loss, anger, relationships and behaviors that can become addictive (eg alcohol, drugs, etc). I work from an intersectional lens, and my approach is sensitive, open, patient and warm.
Psychologist
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.
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
I utilize a combination of psychodynamic and CBT approaches, specializing in depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, and self-perception challenges, transitions associated with significant milestones, and navigating pre/postpartum and all stages of child rearing.

Clients who find DBT helpful often note how they never realized how powerful accepting reality is and that they are thankful to have appropriate skills to help them cope with their painful emotions and difficult relationships. She currently runs a DBT skills group and see clients individually for DBT informed treatment.

Psychologist
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist offering therapy and psychological assessments in New York and Virginia. You’ve accomplished a lot, but lately you feel anxious, drained, or disconnected from yourself. You may carry invisible burdens or the pressure to always be “strong.” You want to feel grounded, confident, and at peace in your body, your relationships, and decisions. My clients are often ambitious women, including Black women, women of color, or immigrants who are ready to heal and grow on their own terms.
In therapy, I provide culturally affirming, trauma-informed care grounded in evidence-based approaches, including CBT, mindfulness, and relational work. Our sessions are a space to slow down, make sense of what’s weighing on you, and build practical tools for clarity, boundaries, and emotional balance.
I also offer specialized psychological assessments, including ADHD evaluations and forensic immigration evaluations. My assessment work is thorough, ethical, and carefully documented, with attention to both clinical accuracy and your lived experience.
Therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, confident, and aligned with yourself, I’d be honored to work with you.
