I’m a psychotherapist in New York City, working with individuals, couples, and families to foster connection, healing, and life satisfaction.

I help clients improve communication, strengthen emotional and sexual intimacy, and navigate interpersonal conflict, self-understanding, and life transitions. I also support those managing anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, and grief.

I am Level 1 trained in IFS, EFT, and EMDR, currently completing advanced training at the Ackerman Institute for the Family, and regularly participate in consultation groups. I incorporate these approaches along with psychodynamic, relational, and other experiential therapies in my work.

I have specific experience working with uniformed services, first responders, fathers, men’s issues, and BIPOC populations.

My practice is anti-racist, anti-oppressive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and grounded in social justice values. I hold a master’s degree from NYU’s Silver School of Social Work.
