My practice centers on creating a safe, affirming and nonjudgmental space for my clients. Through my warm, friendly and grounded approach, I help my clients feel connected and comfortable from their very first session. My ability to listen carefully and respond intently allows my clients to feel truly heard and understood. Together we can explore past trauma, intrusive thoughts and difficult emotions. My goal is to help my clients grow and evolve by identifying unhelpful patterns and behaviors, developing coping skills to better manage challenging moments and deepening self awareness and acceptance to move towards healing and goals.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges (individuals and couples) and LGBTQ issues. With a background in and a passion for women’s mental health, I have experience supporting clients through fertility struggles, perinatal challenges, egg freezing, miscarriage, sexual trauma and loss.

With a strengths-based, trauma-informed lens, my approach is humanistic, interpersonal and client-centered. I practice holistically, integrating many different modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Mindfulness. I would love to begin to get to know you through a consult call.
