Great to meet you!

I am Kira and I love learning new things because I’m challenged by the work that we do together. This is a safe place for us to practice, challenge one another, plant seeds and grow anew. Everyone experiences life challenges and changes that can create stress, confusion, discomfort and pain. Because life is not perfect, some or many of them cause wounding. Therapy can help you work through these life challenges and changes to create an easier journey.

After graduating NYU, I worked in outpatient behavioral health. My skills really shined at treating anxiety, depression and eating disorders. Later I worked in Medication Assisted Treatment clinics (specialty clinics for persons impacted by opioid use) and loved working with clients there too.

I understand that people may be struggling emotionally, rely on substance misuse resulting in relapse of co-occurring disorders, such as depression, anxiety and self-harming behaviors. I see you. I hear you. I am here for you.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is creating a warm space where clients feel open to sharing their dreams, fears, aspirations, depressed feelings, anxiety, challenges, relapses and goals.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to be challenged, nurtured in the warm environment I provide.
