As an MHC-LP, I help adults age 18+ navigate anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions. My mission is to help you identify and utilize your inherent strengths, taking a collaborative, empowering, and empathetic approach that builds an authentic relationship where you feel seen, heard, and respected. If you’re interested in working with a supportive, humanistic, and eclectic therapist focused on your healing and growth, please reach out today. You deserve authenticity and unconditional positive regards that promote safety and healing. I am dedicated to ensuring just that by providing expectations of a warm and nonjudgmental environment tailored to your unique needs and goals. Care may include Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you achieve those goals by exploring your thoughts, feelings, and experiences during our work together. My passion for therapy began with my own personal experience in counseling. Through my work with my individual therapist, I came to understand therapy as a tool to help people transform their lives. This experience showed me firsthand the value of providing supportive care and positive regard to patients who may struggle to view themselves kindly. In my care now, I remain committed to that value, bringing genuine compassion and authenticity to each session. When I’m not seeing patients, I love to unwind by sitting down with a good book, playing the piano, and spending time with my adorable cat, Finn.

The college students I work best with are thoughtful, curious, and trying hard, even if it doesn’t always feel that way. Many are dealing with anxiety, perfectionism, or OCD and feel overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed, figure things out quickly, or keep it all together. Some struggle with focus, motivation, or routines, even though they care deeply about their goals. A lot of my clients tell me they feel stuck in their heads, constantly overthinking, procrastinating, or second-guessing themselves. They’re tired of feeling like they’re falling behind and want someone who truly understands and can offer tools that actually help. In our work, we make space for what’s difficult while building real strategies to help you feel more grounded, capable, and clear about what you want.

Sometimes people reach out to therapy after a big life change, or sometimes with a sense that things feel off. Perhaps patterns keep repeating, emotions feel overwhelming or hard to reach, or a person feels disconnected from themself or others. If this resonates with you, please contact me today. As a psychodynamic therapist with more than four years of experience, I help adults better understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so they can feel more present and fulfilled in their day-to-day life. My approach is psychodynamic and trauma informed to help you better navigate anxiety, depression, or major life changes while working toward deeper self-understanding and changes that feel meaningful in your everyday life. In each session, we explore how past experiences might be influencing the way you think, feel, and relate to others today. At the same time, I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness to keep our work focused in the present, helping you notice patterns as they come up, shift unhelpful thoughts, and feel more grounded in everyday life. Prior to my role at SOL Mental Health, I worked for more than four years in community mental health in New York City. This experience deepened my commitment to providing warm, compassionate, and individualized care in a collaborative space where patients feel supported, understood, and empowered to move forward with more clarity and intention. Outside of sessions, I enjoy reading, cooking, and intentional movement through exercising and taking long walks.

As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) specializing in person-centered therapy, I work with adults (18+) and adolescents who are ready to do meaningful work, wherever they are in their journey. I take a radically empathetic approach to help you navigate anxiety, depression, self-worth challenges, relationship difficulties (both platonic and romantic), and the weight of oppressive systems that can make life feel harder than it should. Whether you're brand new to therapy or well into the process, I'm here to walk alongside you, meeting you exactly where you are and helping you move toward where you want to be. I believe deeply in your capacity to grow, and am passionate about helping you build the skills and self-awareness that allow you to live more authentically. My approach is nonjudgmental, relational, and insight-oriented, creating a space that feels both calm and energizing, where real exploration can happen. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and psychodynamic approaches, I help you develop the tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. Because no two people are alike, I tailor my style to fit your unique needs, background, and lived experience. What works for you will always guide how we work together. My path to this work is a personal one. My own experiences with anxiety, and the process of seeking and receiving help, gave me a firsthand understanding of how transformative the right therapeutic relationship can be. That experience opened my eyes to the profound value of feeling truly seen and supported when navigating life's hardest moments. Outside of the therapy room, you'll find me lost in a good book, out on my bike, or making time for the people I love. These moments of connection and curiosity keep me grounded, and remind me why balance and joy matter so much in a well-lived life.

I've had meaningful experience working with patients struggling with substance use, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. These challenges often overlap and can show up as feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or not quite like yourself. I focus on helping patients understand what they're experiencing, such as differentiating intrusive thoughts from more severe conditions, which often reduces fear and improves engagement in treatment. I also work well with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of rumination, avoidance, or emotional dysregulation, helping them build insight and develop more effective ways to cope and function day to day. I’m most passionate about making mental healthcare more approachable, especially for LGBTQ+ individuals and underserved communities who often face added barriers, stigma, or lack of access to care. I find it meaningful to create a space that feels safe, affirming, and non-judgmental, where people can be fully themselves. My hope is that you feel comfortable being honest, even about things that are hard to say, and that over time you gain a clearer understanding of yourself, feel more in control of your thoughts and emotions, and build confidence in navigating your life.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with years of experience in various settings, including university counseling centers (Baruch, NYU, Fordham), a psychiatric in-patient unit, a community outpatient clinic, and a rehabilitation hospital. I have an extensive experience working with young adults and adults coping with a wide range of mental disorders and life stressors (e.g., depression; anxiety; trauma; adjustment issues; acculturation issues; interpersonal difficulties; racial trauma). I utilize an integrative approach that synthesizes elements from various therapy models (e.g., psychodynamic, CBT, DBT). Through this approach, I will support you in gaining new in sights and meanings, building new skills, recognizing your incredible resilience, and breaking free from unhelpful patterns that may be holding you back. In our therapeutic journey together, my primary aim is to establish a profound sense of connection with you. Using this therapeutic alliance, I will gently yet firmly encourage you to confront your challenges, facilitating new experiences and understanding.

I am an insight-oriented, person-centered, and sex-positive therapist who leads with curiosity. I see clients of all identities, and I specialize in the care and unique needs of queer, kinky, and nonmonogamous people, as well as those with a background in sex work. I am skilled in helping clients navigate issues related to gender identity, sexuality, alternative relationship structures, life transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, and attachment ruptures. My work in general psychotherapy and sex therapy is trauma-informed and driven by principles of consent. I will meet you where you are on your journey in a non-judgmental and compassionate way. My practice is guided by values of anti-oppression, and I actively consider the impact of positionality and power dynamics throughout my life. I am a graduate of the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College, with a specialized certificate in Gender and Sexuality. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 12 years working in theatre; I integrate my experience working in artist care into my practice as a holistic-minded clinician. I see adult clients on an individual basis and in relationship structures of two or more. I firmly believe that you are the expert of your own experiences, and that my role as a therapist is to use my clinical presence to help us both understand you better. Our work together focuses on discovering patterns and connections, while utilizing our mutual insight. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

You may be entering a new stage in your life, whether it is heading to college and moving out of your childhood home, starting your career, choosing to seek graduate or advanced training, or becoming serious in a committed relationship and starting your own family. You know what you want to achieve, but need additional support in navigating the stresses of setting off on this new path. Or maybe you want help in redefining the roles your family members and loved ones have in your life as you walk towards adulthood in a chaotic world. Maybe you have started your own family and made the decision to become a parent. You may want to parent differently than your parents, but are unsure how. You might be experiencing anxiety around being responsible for a vulnerable new human being. Children can be mirrors, reflecting our own experiences of childhood back onto us. Perhaps past painful experiences of not having your own needs met in childhood are bubbling up and you want to have a safe space to process and explore those experiences. Making lasting change can be difficult for most, and choosing therapy is the first step on the path towards positive growth and change.

I see psychotherapy as a collaborative process to help individuals gain a fresh perspective on their lives, recognize repeating patterns in their behaviors and relationships, and find new solutions for old problems. My approach is psychodynamic and eclectic, balancing both depth and real-world focus to address the unique needs of each patient at the intersection of their physical, mental, internal, external, interpersonal, and sociopolitical spheres of experience. I have a particular passion working with individuals who find themselves outside of the narrow band of supposedly “normal” identity and desire, including people who are “kinky”/involved in BDSM, nonmonogamous, polyamorous, in open relationships, queer, gender non-conforming, non-binary, and/or trans* (transitioning or not transitioning). I endeavor to use my concentrated graduate study, post-graduate training, and clinical experience in these areas to provide a warm, open, and supportive space to facilitate self-understanding and growth.

I believe that all of us have had some challenges in our lives whether that translates to bigger traumas or smaller hardships. As a result of our challenges, we have beliefs about who we are and our place in the world. I use evidence-based practices including EMDR to identify and manage triggers that may manifest in fear, anxiety, and negative beliefs about who we are and what we deserve. Let me help you break free from your People-Pleasing, Perfectionist, and/or Procrastinating tendencies and find peace with being your authentic self.

As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I’m drawn to working with thoughtful, self-aware individuals who are struggling internally, whether with overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, loneliness, or a persistent sense of not fully belonging. You may feel overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself, or caught in patterns that no longer feel sustainable. You may be navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, identity exploration, or a major life transition. Whatever brings you here, our work together won't stop at symptom relief. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable showing up as you are, without judgment, pressure, or the need to have everything figured out. This collaborative approach is designed to help you feel more grounded, more authentic, and safer within yourself, so you can engage with life in a fuller and more meaningful way. Beginning therapy takes real courage, and I don't take that lightly. My hope is that you leave each session feeling less alone in your experiences, and more able to approach yourself with curiosity, compassion, and honesty over time. Therapy, at its best, is a space not only for symptom relief but also for deeper self-understanding and more meaningful connection with yourself and others. My approach is relational and psychodynamic at its core, drawing on Mindfulness-based practices, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed methods when they're useful. What that looks like in practice is a conversation that moves at your pace, exploring both present-day concerns and the deeper relational history, patterns, and dynamics shaping the way you understand yourself and move through the world. Together, we may look at questions of identity and belonging, the parts of yourself that seek connection or protection, and the emotional themes running quietly beneath the surface. Working with me tends to feel collaborative, reflective, and warm. My style is curious rather than clinical: I pay close attention not just to what you're going through, but to the larger patterns that may exist underneath it. Informed by an interest in psychoanalysis, mindfulness, and the ways language and storytelling help us make sense of our lives, I approach every person through an intersectional and culturally aware lens, recognizing how identity, family systems, culture, and larger social forces shape how we relate and move through the world. Every approach is tailored to your unique needs and goals, balancing insight-oriented exploration with practical support wherever it's helpful. My path toward becoming a therapist grew out of a deep curiosity about people, relationships, and the ways we learn to adapt to difficult experiences. Over time, I became especially interested in the inner worlds people carry beneath the surface – the parts of ourselves that often remain unspoken, misunderstood, or difficult to put into words. Having lived between different cultures myself, I am especially curious about the ways people search for belonging and make sense of what it means to feel at home, whether that home is found in a place, a language, a relationship, a community, or within themselves. These experiences deepened my belief that healing often begins when we feel genuinely understood and less alone in the parts of ourselves we may have carried quietly for a long time. I believe there is something deeply healing about being able to explore your inner world in the presence of someone who is truly listening and trying to understand. In my free time, I enjoy running, yoga, meditation, strength training, hiking, reading, and traveling. I love long walks through New York City, discovering new coffee shops and restaurants, attending lectures and theater performances, and having thoughtful conversations with friends. I’m most drawn to spaces that feel thoughtful, creative, and intellectually alive.
