Mental Health Counselor, MA, PhD, LMHC
I am a psychotherapist working both in person and virtually in midtown Manhattan. I work with adults of all ages dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life transitions and relationship difficulties. My clinical approach may involve talk therapy, sensorimotor therapy and/or skill building, depending upon client needs.
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
I utilize skills from EMDR, somatic psychotherapy, ACT and relational theories to help my clients gain insight and make genuine change for their lives. I utilize boundary setting techniques to create safe spaces for self exploration and healing. I am respectful of LGBTQ and BIPOC needs.
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
I specialize in working with those who appear “okay” on the outside, but inside they’re overthinking, second-guessing, or bending themselves to keep others happy. Those who want to say no more often, strengthen their relationships, feel more confident, quiet their inner critics, or feel more at ease with their bodies. I provide virtual sessions for those in NY, CT, and NJ.
With compassion and curiosity I help people explore untangle patterns that are no longer serving them. My approach is drawn from evidence-based therapeutic modalities -- I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to best serve the unique needs of each person.
I do my best to bring my authentic self to session which means therapy with me is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative – with a touch of humor! I am passionate about my work as a therapist and I am deeply committed to helping people make positive changes in their lives.
If you’re ready to make lasting changes in your life, I encourage you to reach out. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to get comfortable, ask questions, and see if we could be a good fit.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
As a licensed clinical social worker, my focus is on the big picture. I help clients take in the scope of their lives. Using eclectic and integrative techniques, I work with individuals as partners to identify problems, their effects, underlying patterns, and practice solutions. My training focuses on stress-related disorders, relationship issues, behavioral problems and systemic dysfunctions.
Change can be uncomfortable, but the result is relief, as well as a happier and more sustainable life. Clients leave with their own, personal toolbox, with which they can build a life they truly enjoy long-term. Throughout the therapeutic process clients learn to identify their patterns; evaluate the ways in which those patterns help and hinder goals; address how they interact with the other individuals; and practice the pursuit of meaning, integrity and joy.
