I graduated with a Master's Degree in Social Work from Columbia University. I feel grateful to have spent the last 10 years providing therapeutic services to children, adolescents, and adults in private practice, non-profit, and educational settings. I now mainly work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, significant life transitions, prenatal/postpartum, and chronic illness.
My approach is eclectic and evidence based. I tailor my training and experience to meet your individual needs and goals. I will come to each session with empathy, openness, a grounding presence, and concrete tools to help you manage life's stressors.
We may work on better understanding your thought patterns, setting healthy boundaries, improving self-care and self-confidence, building deeper connections, exploring trauma, and decreasing symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Our first session is about me getting to know you and about you feeling comfortable in this partnership. I will learn about what brought you to therapy, and we will explore your goals. There is no pressure in the first session or any session. We will always move at your speed. I know it may feel strange imagining opening up to someone you just met, but know that I will meet you with warmth and validation.
