Great to meet you!

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I provide compassionate, individualized psychotherapy to adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and challenges related to life transitions. I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from Columbia University and then subsequently obtained my License Clinical Social Work license (LCSW) in order to practice in the clinical arena. My professional background includes work in private practice and clinical outpatient settings, where I have supported individuals navigating a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns.

My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma therapy to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

My approach to therapy

I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and understood. Together, we work to develop effective coping strategies, build emotional resilience, process difficult experiences, and cultivate greater self-awareness and self-compassion.

I understand that life transitions, whether expected or unexpected, can bring uncertainty, stress, and feelings of being overwhelmed or stuck. My goal is to help clients navigate these challenges with greater confidence, gain insight into recurring patterns, and develop practical tools to support lasting change.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process tailored to each individual’s unique needs, strengths, and goals. Through a warm, empathetic, and goal-oriented approach, I help clients work toward greater emotional well-being, a stronger sense of self, and a more balanced and fulfilling life.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will take time to get to know one another and discuss what has brought you to therapy. You will have an opportunity to share your concerns, current challenges, and any experiences that may be affecting your emotional well-being. We will also explore your personal history, strengths, and goals for treatment at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Together, we will begin identifying areas you would like to address and discuss how therapy can best support your needs. I will answer any questions you may have about the therapeutic process, treatment approaches, and what to expect moving forward.
