Great to meet you!

I work with individuals and couples who feel disconnected from themselves or others, overwhelmed by life's demands, or weighed down by shame or self-doubt. I also see those navigating difficult relationships or seeking greater fulfillment — whether that means reconnecting with creativity, rediscovering their energy, or growing personally and professionally. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Wellness from New York University and am currently a Clinical Fellow at Gestalt Associates for Psychotherapy.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative approach to therapy that centers on helping you understand your experience in the “here and now” and getting in touch with your feelings. My therapeutic style is patient, warm, supportive, and empowering, and draws from Gestalt Therapy and somatic approaches. I strive to create an environment where you feel comfortable sharing anything on your mind while processing your emotions. My aim is to work together to gain awareness, make choices, and activate those choices to help you overcome your challenges.

What you can expect from me

The first session is really an opportunity for us to get to know one another and explore what's bringing you in. We'll talk about what's been going on, what you're hoping to get out of therapy, and begin to get a sense of how we might work together moving forward.
