I am a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. In addition to working with individuals and couples in my private practice, I also lead interpersonal process groups. I graduated with a Master’s in Social Work from NYU and a Doctorate in Social Work from Rutgers University (where I currently teach courses on behavioral addictions). I am a graduate of the Eastern Group Psychotherapy Society and run process groups for psychiatry residents at Mt. Sinai Hospital in NYC.

I have extensive experience working with people with different life challenges, diagnoses, and cultures in both inpatient settings and private practice. My first career was as an artist, and that helped me immensely in developing an empathic and thoughtful perspective in my clinical work, whether art making is utilized by the client during sessions or not.
