Great to meet you!

I started my career as a case manager helping homebound, disabled older adults. I found the work so meaningful that I decided to further my education. I enrolled at Hunter College School of Social Work and obtained my Master's degree. I started working in a community mental health clinic helping individuals struggling with anxiety and depression. This lead to my decision to create my own private practice where I continue helping people manage their anxiety and depression so they can lead happier, more peaceful lives.

My approach to therapy

I’m a warm, compassionate therapist and help people manage anxiety, self-doubt, grief, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Each person’s story is unique, so our sessions will be guided by your needs and what feels most meaningful to you. I create a safe space where you can be yourself and explore at your own pace. I welcome you to connect and begin this journey together.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll take time to talk about what’s been happening in your life and what led you to reach out. You’ll have space to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. We’ll also begin exploring what you hope to gain from therapy and how I can best support you.
