With 10 years in the Mental Health field and countless individuals and families served, I am excited to start my next chapter in private practice! I am a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor with expertise in helping young adults and families navigate the impact of mental health on them and their loved ones. I have held roles from Clinical Intern to Clinical Director and bring a deep understanding of how mental health conditions manifest differently for each person and how important holistic and individualized care is in providing effective treatment and creating sustainable growth. My sessions typically involve aspects of DBT, CBT, and executive functioning skills. I enjoy working with those clients that have many different mental health and life challenges going on at once and helping them to become more self-aware and empowered to make edits to life where necessary!
Psychologist, Ph.D
I am a licensed psychologist who provides individual, couples, and group therapy. My primary theoretical approach is psychodynamic/relational/insight oriented psychotherapy for individuals working through relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, and adjustment to transition through life's challenges. I believe healthy people seek therapy for a variety reasons throughout life, and psychotherapy can help you find a more genuine and integrated way of living and relating to others. I work collaboratively to recognize patterns and become aware of unconscious habits and choices that impact one's life and functioning.
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have always loved helping others. My passion for working with people in their 20s and 30s stems from years of working with children and adolescents in schools. I’ve helped students find their own path into adulthood and see my current work as a continuation of offering that guidance and support. Previous clients describe me as very kind, empathetic, non-judgmental, and caring. Counseling is in my blood, it's all I have ever done and I feel as passionate about it today as I did when I started.

Many women struggle silently with mood changes, anxiety, or intrusive thoughts during pregnancy and after birth. You might find yourself feeling overwhelmed, irritable, tearful, or disconnected from your baby or your partner. You might even have upsetting or unwanted thoughts that feel out of character and leave you feeling ashamed or afraid to tell anyone. You're not alone in feeling this way. I’m a Cornell trained psychiatrist and psychotherapist specializing in reproductive mental health. Together, we’ll take a thoughtful, evidence based approach to understand what’s happening and find a path forward.
