I’m passionate about helping my clients connect: with me, with the people in their lives, and, most importantly, with themselves.
As an NYU graduate and New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor and psychotherapist, I view therapy as a profound learning experience. I help individuals and couples connect with their resilience, learn new coping skills, and cultivate the relationships they want (and deserve).
Above all, I help my clients get comfortable with being uncomfortable. After all, you can’t grow if you’re stuck in the same old patterns and behaviors.

My nature as a therapist is authentic and open. I like to build an honest, vulnerable and trusting dynamic with you, where we collaborate on exploring and maintaining a curiosity about your life experiences that inform who and how you are (in the way that you think, feel and behave). I specialize in working with folks who struggle with Anxiety, OCD, and relational issues. I have extensive experience working with the LGBTQ+ community and I foster a safe and inclusive space for all of my clients. I'm licensed to practice in New York, New Jersey and Florida, am currently seeing clients in person in New York and virtually.

For long-lasting change to occur in therapy, I believe you must feel truly heard, valued, and cared for in treatment. I continuously collaborate with you to assess the progress of treatment together so that you truly feel you are growing in your therapeutic journey.

I specialize in adults who wish to engage in deep insight-oriented work when struggling with areas such as depression, self-esteem issues, life transitions, or relational challenges.

I greatly value the knowledge I receive from my clients’ lives and experiences, and I strive to create a culturally competent space for you.
