For many of us, it’s easy to get swept away by the lifestyle, career, and personal demands of a fast-paced city.  If we then add life transitions coupled with family, cultural or biological pressures, it can be physically and mentally draining.  Anytime our feelings or behaviors interfere with living our best life, therapy can help.

I enjoy and welcome working with people of all ages, backgrounds, cultures and identities.  In my practice, I aim to compassionately help people understand themselves in a way that brings about the life they want to live.  I foster a collaborative exploration of the patterns of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that keep people from feeling their best.

Through my work at hospitals and institutes around New York, I have come to deeply appreciate a holistic approach to treatment that integrates various modalities to honor each person's unique needs.  I am passionate about working with adults, children and couples dealing with emotional distress, relationship struggles, life transitions, work stress, immigration distress or identity struggles.
