I am a licensed clinical psychologist in New York City. I received both my Master's in Psychology and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University and completed clinical training in teaching hospital, university, and private practice settings in the NYC area.

I am an EMDRIA Certified EMDR therapist and am Certified in Perinatal Mental Health through Postpartum Support International.

I work with adults adults treating mood and anxiety disorders, interpersonal difficulties, and life transitions. I have a specialized interest in working with clients experiencing fertility challenges, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and pregnancy loss. I draw from psychodynamic, attachment, and cognitive behavioral frameworks in my work and strive for a warm, supportive collaboration with my clients. I value the importance of a holistic approach that integrates care for the mind, body, and relationships and utilize mindfulness and relational strategies in my work.
