Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and Florida with over a decade of experience supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I specialize in helping high-achieving individuals manage burnout, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with their sense of purpose. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs, drawing from CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. Whether you're looking for short-term support or long-term healing, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and clarity.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I believe healing happens in a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen and heard. I meet you where you are, helping you explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace while gently guiding you toward clarity and meaningful change. I integrate evidence-based practices like CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, but most importantly, I tailor each session to your unique needs and goals. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone; together, we’ll work toward creating a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with who you are.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to leave sessions with me feeling more grounded, empowered, and equipped with practical tools they can use in everyday life. I focus on helping you gain insight, build emotional resilience, and develop strategies for managing stress, setting boundaries, and improving relationships. Our work together will be collaborative and goal-oriented, all within a safe, supportive space where you feel genuinely understood. Whether it's through guided exercises, personalized coping skills, or mindset shifts, you'll walk away with actionable steps to create lasting change.
