Seeking therapy does not always begin with knowing exactly what needs to change. You may be struggling with a particular situation, finding yourself in familiar patterns, or simply wanting to understand yourself and your relationships differently. Therapy can offer space to explore these experiences with curiosity, develop greater awareness, and consider new ways of moving forward.

With over 20 years of experience, my practice is grounded in an anti-oppression framework and informed by my work with diverse populations across a range of clinical settings. Although individuals seek therapy for many different reasons, my areas of particular experience include substance use, relationship concerns, depression, anxiety, grief and bereavement, and recovery from abuse and trauma.

I am committed to creating a supportive environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly and without fear of judgment. My approach is collaborative, empathic, and rooted in psychodynamic, relational, psychoanalytic, and strengths-based perspectives.

Depending on your individual needs, I may integrate approaches such as motivational interviewing, harm reduction, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, and somatic strategies. Together, we can deepen your understanding of yourself and explore possibilities for meaningful change.

I welcome individuals across all stages of adulthood who are seeking support, greater self-understanding, and meaningful change. I accept AETNA Student Health Open Choice PPO-NYU Student Health Insurance and welcome students seeking support during this important time in their lives.

I invite you to take the first step and reach out.
