Great to meet you!

My goal as your therapist is to see the full you, with curiosity about your dynamic uniqueness. I honor your personal values, past experiences and place in the world. Above all I will prioritize a feeling of relational safety, and I don’t subscribe to the idea that therapy needs to be uncomfortable or overwhelming; I care about your limits and boundaries and I trust your intuition. I also bring myself into the room with humor and compassion, and you’ll be able to feel my warmth and presence in a reliable and kind way.

My approach to therapy

My practice is rooted in ACT and psychodynamic theories, and I have made anti-racism and disability justice a core tenet of my practice. I have a special interest in supporting anti-Zionist or counter-Zionist Jews struggling to feel a place within their current Jewish communities. My main specialties are grief, anxiety related to death/dying, and body image.

What you can expect from me

After witnessing such substantial growth in my clients, I believe more than ever that finding peace and vitality through psychotherapy is both possible and important. You are worth this expansion, and I’d be honored to join you!
