Great to meet you!

Anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles can leave you feeling lost, even when life looks fine on the outside. You do not have to navigate these challenges alone. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist trained at Columbia University, with over 50 years of clinical experience helping individuals, couples, and families work through emotional pain, family conflict, and major life transitions. I offer confidential telehealth therapy throughout New York, with sessions available in both English and French.

My approach to therapy

I believe meaningful change begins when you feel genuinely understood. My approach combines psychodynamic therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you explore relationship patterns, understand the roots of anxiety and depression, and develop practical tools for lasting change. I tailor therapy to your needs, helping you improve communication, navigate difficult emotions, strengthen relationships, and discover new possibilities when you feel stuck.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity to feel heard, share your story, and begin identifying what you want to change. I will listen carefully and ask thoughtful questions to understand your concerns, personal history, and relationships. Together, we will explore your goals and begin creating a plan that fits your needs. You can expect a warm, collaborative space where you can speak openly, feel respected, and move forward at your own pace.
