I am a licensed psychodynamically trained clinical psychologist with a second degree in Developmental Psychology. I have over 15 years experience working with childen, teens, parents and young adults. I see a range of presenting problems in my practice including emotional dysregulation, frustration tolerance, attachment issues, adjustment disorder, adoption, loss, divorce, anxiety, ARFID, attentional difficulties, and interpersonal or familial conflict. I work mostly in-person with children, but also provide virtual therapy as needed and with older teens and adults. I am an out of network provider.

I treat people suffering from personal or professional anxiety, negative self-beliefs, and those unable to communicate or set boundaries with others. I also connect with individuals trying to heal from trauma and young adults navigating the twists and turns life throws their way. High-achievers, people-pleasers, and life-transitioners often find their way into my practice.

I am a clinical psychologist specializing in neuroaffirming care for neurodivergent folks (particularly AD/HD and ASD) in and around the city.

I work relationally and psychodynamically with an attachment-based lens, which means that I care about how your issues from past experiences and relationships are impacting you today. I'm a fan of using psychoeducation to demystify the process of therapy.

I primarily use psychodynamic, systemic, experiential and culturally sensitive approaches to accompany the client throughout the journey of self discovery. With emphasis on awareness and insight, I encourage individuals and couples to seek solutions that resonate with their individual and relational needs. The struggle to overcome adverse experiences, can be a product of sociocultural system, family context, early attachment and relationships which reflect a stigmatized idea of self.
