Great to meet you!

Hi there! I am so glad you are here!

Are you working incredibly hard to manage the non-stop demands of life? You are trying to create positive changes and yet you find yourself feeling stuck in familiar and unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we can work to develop practical tools and collaborate (at your pace) on some deeper rooted exploration; creating long lasting change that gives you a greater sense of ease in your day to day life.

Since completing my Masters of Social Work at Fordham University in 2012 I have had nearly 15 years of professional experience in a variety of community mental health settings. I have developed a passion for supporting young adults through life transitions, working through relationship challenges, and emotion focused work.

My approach to therapy

Whenever I am meeting with a new client I start with my deeply held belief that all humans have the ability to change. We can work together to harness your unique strengths and better equip you to navigate the inevitable highs and lows of life, while deepening your sense of self compassion around the inevitable challenges of being a human. My approach is integrative, warm, and tailored entirely to you.

What you can expect from me

The key to success in therapy is the therapeutic relationship, and I know how important it is to build warmth, genuine connection, and comfort right from the beginning. In our first session, I am eager to get to know you and understand a bit about what led you to seek therapy and what you hope to gain. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you have an abundance of therapeutic experience, I hope to provide a space where you feel safe to be exactly as you are today while also identifying opportunities for growth.
