Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with 8 years of experience specializing in anxiety, OCD, depression, and trauma. I work with adolescents and
adults who want to understand what is keeping them stuck and build real tools to change it. I am warm, direct, and I take the work seriously without taking myself too
seriously. Mostly, I try to be the kind of therapist I would have wanted to find.
I use a human-centered approach and draw from CBT, DBT, ACT, ERP, and MBCT depending on what each person needs. For OCD and anxiety, ERP means we move
toward the difficult thoughts instead of around them, which is how the cycle actually breaks. DBT gives us tools for emotional regulation and getting through intense
moments. ACT helps you stop wrestling with thoughts and start choosing how to live. I try to be the filter that many of us feel we are missing in this life.
In our first session, I want to know what brought you here, what has been hard, and what you are hoping will feel different. I will ask real questions, listen closely, and give
you a clear picture of what working together will look like. My goal is to make it feel more like a conversation than a clinical intake. Most people leave the first session
feeling a little clearer, a little less alone, and a little more hopeful. And yes, I am a human too, no performance needed.
