Great to meet you!

As a psychotherapist, I bring extensive experience working with individuals and families across all ages, cultural backgrounds, and life stages. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in helping clients feel seen and understood.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, women’s issues, relationship concerns, anger, and stress management. Many of the clients I work with come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them—emotionally, relationally, or behaviorally. Together, we explore these patterns, clarify what they want to shift, and identify practical, meaningful ways to create lasting change.

My professional background includes a Master's in Clinical Social Work from Fordham University, and licensure as an LCSW in New York. I use an integrative approach informed by cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed practices, always tailored to the unique needs of each person.

Therapy can be a powerful space to reconnect with your values, your voice, and your sense of possibility—and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients as they navigate that process.

My approach to therapy

My approach as a therapist is gentle, yet direct. I believe in creating a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I use an integrative blend of evidence-based modalities, including:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help shift unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping skills

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support mindfulness, emotional flexibility, and value-based living

Client-Centered Therapy, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and your unique strengths

I also incorporate strategies to recognize and reduce codependency, self-sabotaging behaviors, and people-pleasing patterns that can keep us stuck in cycles of emotional pain or unfulfilling relationships.

I see therapy as a collaborative process—you are the expert on your life. My role is to act as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment, validating your experience, and gently guiding you through your own process of insight, healing, and growth.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, I take the time to truly understand your goals, your strengths, your challenges, and what helps you feel safe, supported, and seen. My intention is to create a space where you feel empowered to explore, grow, and heal at your own pace.

Clients can expect to:

Gain clarity on personal patterns and behaviors

Improve emotional regulation

Develop effective, personalized coping strategies

Learn to challenge self-sabotaging or limiting beliefs

Strengthen confidence and self-trust

Ultimately, my goal is to support you in becoming your own agent of change—helping you build insight, resilience, and the tools to navigate life’s challenges with more ease and intention.

I look forward to walking alongside you on this journey.
