I work together with my patients to identify what is getting between them and their most vibrant lives, meaningful relationships, and substantive work.

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice on the Upper West Side. I have 16+ years of experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents, adults, and couples. In my experience, the relationship between the patient and the therapist is critical to the success of treatment: Patients need to feel safe, respected, and understood in order to do the work of therapy. I strive to establish a supportive, collaborative, and honest relationship that encourages growth and change.

My style of work is active and collaborative. I respectfully challenge you to self-reflect on your habitual ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving, with the goal of recognizing both the positive and negative consequences on you as an individual and on your relationships. While listening to the content of what you speak about, I am simultaneously paying attention to your dynamics and patterns of thought, tone and body language. Together we find effective additional ways for you to self reflect and make changes.

I am passionate about supporting clients to be free from fear and anxiety, align to inner guidance, develop nourishing relationships, and make choices from a place of love, curiosity, and possibility. I’ve supported clients struggling with anxiety, panic, life transitions, relationship issues, and questions of meaning and purpose.

My experience as a therapist includes working with recently immigrated youth, high school and college students, and individuals of all ages, identities, and backgrounds in community mental health. Before training as a therapist, I worked in international women’s rights, food justice, and bilingual education. I love to learn and am continually seeking out new skills and experiences to enhance my work as a therapist. My best training has been my own process of going to therapy, as well as being human and learning along the way. My work is informed by attachment, feminist, and relational theories. My approach is also informed by training in mindfulness meditation, yoga, and energy healing practices.

I'd love to meet fellow clinicians, and I'm currently available for new client referrals.
