Great to meet you!

Have you noticed an increase in your stress, anxiety, or depression? Does life feel more difficult that usual? Do you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward? I would be happy to work with you to help you address what is causing your distress and get you back to the life you desire. We will carefully explore your stressors at a pace that is comfortable for you, pull from your strengths, and pinpoint how to overcome the barriers that are currently holding you back from the lifestyle you want and deserve.

My approach to therapy

I use a combination of cognitive behavioral, acceptance commitment, and dialectical behavior therapy techniques to guide our work. I like to ask challenging questions in a very supportive manner that comfortably encourage self-exploration and insight. I offer telehealth appointments and can work with clients living anywhere in the state of New York.

What you can expect from me

I initially take time to assess what you're envisioning as your ultimate goal(s). Armed with that information, we then set a plan of how to best achieve your goal(s), based on what will likely be the most comfortable and beneficial for you. I also believe in frequent check-ins of our work, to assess if we are on the right track or in need of a slight adjustment to ensure our success.
