Great to meet you!

I am a LCSW providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, family, friends and group work to clients as they explore life's experiences and challenges. I graduated in 2016 from Lehman College and in 2022 launched my career working with young adults and adults experiencing acute and chronic anxiety, depression and trauma. This trauma lens continues to inform and provides a sensitivity to my work today.

My approach to therapy

I bring a rich, enlightened and empathetic attunement to my work. My approach is always evolving and morphs to each client’s individual needs, and is guided by my experience in the field of social work, an extensive marketing career and colorful life experience.

What you can expect from me

Whether one-on-one work, couples, friends or group work I will support and help you reach your goals. Together we will identify and navigate unhelpful patterns, thoughts and behaviors that may be affecting your ability to move forward in life. Together we will work to improve mood and self-esteem, while validating your thoughts, emotions and life decisions.
