Columbia University–trained psychotherapist working at the intersection of high-functioning anxiety and deep pattern change. Treatment is grounded in EMDR, IFS, somatic therapy, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, supporting lasting shifts in self-esteem, confidence, and boundaries.

As a couples therapist and creative arts therapist, I help partners and individuals explore their inner worlds with curiosity and compassion. Together, we’ll work to understand the origins of your struggles, illuminate unconscious patterns that shape your relationships, and cultivate new ways of relating—to yourself, to others, and to your life.​ My work is grounded in psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed therapy, with an emphasis on creating a thoughtful, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic space.

In couples therapy, I work with partners experiencing recurring conflict, emotional distance, attachment injury, or difficulty reconnecting. My approach helps couples slow down reactive patterns, understand what’s happening beneath conflict or withdrawal, and move toward greater emotional clarity, repair, and intimacy, particularly during periods of rupture or life transition. I have helped couples navigate fertility, loss, sexual intimacy, gender transition, affairs, non-monogamy, financial stress, parenting, and trauma.

I also offer individual psychotherapy and creative arts therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relational challenges. Creative arts therapy is integrated as a clinical tool to support emotional processing and insight when words alone feel limiting.

As a licensed psychotherapist and certified yoga instructor, I specialize in integrative health and the mind/body connection.

Beginning the search for a therapist can feel overwhelming. It’s often a time when even simple decisions can feel uncertain, and choosing the right therapist is not easy. I encourage you to take your time as you explore this website and consider whether I might be someone you could come to trust. Even when things feel urgent, slowing down can help you find the right fit.

I believe that a therapeutic relationship is something that unfolds gradually, with space for both challenge and moments of lightness along the way.
