Great to meet you!

I’ve been honored to be providing Creative Arts Therapy within New York State for over 16 years. Collaboratively creating a reliable and insightful therapeutic realm where you feel safe to explore, process and self reflect is a primary part of my practice. Honing into your ever complexities with purpose and analytical connectedness is key to my therapeutic approach.

My approach to therapy

I have extensive experience servicing the LGBTQ+ community although service all folk. Furthermore I have expertise in reducing symptoms related to sadness, identity, body image, sexuality, relationships, addiction, anxiety, attention, obsessions, and/or anger. We can utilize both verbal psychotherapy and non-verbal individualized creative techniques to meet your needs.

What you can expect from me

My approach is attentive, kind, curious, and as diverse as you. Please reach out for a free video consultation to see if you feel comfortable with me as this is needed more then anything for therapeutic growth. We can do either in person sessions or remote depending on your needs. I have a beautiful office right in midtown manhattan with tons of art supplies to utilize in session if wanted.
