Great to meet you!

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and earned my Master of Social Work from New York University. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand how difficult our past experiences can be. Whether you are struggling with PTSD, anxiety, depression, or chronic pain, I am determined to guide you towards the peace you deserve.

My approach to therapy

In the therapy room, I maintain a warm presence that combines skills from evidence-based treatments. This means that I use interventions that are backed by research. Some of these include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). We can identify what your needs are and work at a pace that makes sense for you.

What you can expect from me

It is essential that my clients feel heard, supported, and like they have the capacity for growth. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. As a team, we will work together to explore your challenges, assess your needs, and identify goals that are solution-focused. I look forward to beginning our mental health journey!
