Great to meet you!

Using insight-oriented and strengths-based methods, I provide compassionate psychotherapy that meets you where you are. I have been living and working with the NYC population for over 30 years with specialty in women's issues, relationship challenges, mood disorders, grief, loss and trauma. I am a graduate of Wurzweiler School of Social Work and have advanced clinical training from the Silver School of Social Work and Seleni Institute.

My approach to therapy

My approach helps you realize your own capacity to grow and impact your system in meaningful ways. We will work with emotional dysregulation, limiting beliefs and barriers to contentment. You will develop Mindful Awareness as the mechanism of change to help you to improve your own efficacy and agency in your personal/professional goals, relationships and with Self.

What you can expect from me

We will explore the history and presentation of the challenges you are experiencing. You can expect a plan of care that meets your needs and goals for therapy. We will develop a culture of working together that honors your journey and provides the safe environment you need to become the best version of yourself.
