Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC, CEDS-S
I am a psychotherapist based in Manhattan and licensed in the states of NY, NJ, PA, FL, and TX. My primary focus throughout my career has been on the treatment of eating disorders, body image issues, and trauma. I am a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist and Approved Supervisor/Consultant (CEDS-C) through the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and a trained EMDR therapist. Prior to private practice, I have served in a variety of roles ranging from primary therapist to clinical director at various levels of care including inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient.
I wholeheartedly believe that client's are the expert of their own lives. My aim is to help them create the necessary changes while providing safety and connection in a collaborative relationship. I believe the most important aspect of therapy lies within the therapeutic relationship. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care to promote an environment of safety, empowerment and healing. I practice utilizing evidence-based treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Enhanced Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-E), Psychodynamic Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Interpersonal Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapist (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) working in a strength-based and relational style. I also trained in Embodied Recovery for Eating Disorders (EDRD) through the Embodied Recovery Institute.
