Change often emerges under validating and supportive environment. In individual therapy, I thrive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where mutual trust can occur to facilitate clients’ self-discovery. My style is genuine, empathic, and interactive. I listen with curiosity, pay close attention to my clients' verbal and non-verbal expressions, and aim to align my approaches with their priorities and goals. Together, my clients and I seek to unpack and co-construct meaning out of their life events with self-compassion. I am interested in helping clients get on a path toward working through the psychological trappings that are getting in their way.

In couples therapy, I work toward providing a safe environment to help clients and their partner(s) listen to one another better and communicate more constructively. I am interested in facilitating true emotional engagement for all parties. Attending to relationship dynamics and their family histories, I guide couples to address each partner’s attachment needs.

I earned a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from The City College of New York and have experience working in public and private hospitals, community mental health centers, and college counseling centers. I am also an Adjunct Clinical Supervisor in the Clinical Psychology PhD Program at The City College of New York and a post-degree candidate of Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis at NYU.
