Great to meet you!

We all deserve a dedicated space to process and navigate life's challenges. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Masters in Social Work from NYU. I have experience working with a range of diagnoses as well as complex trauma. I specialize in supporting emerging adults (18-25) through the critical process of self-discovery and identity development.

My approach to therapy

My practice is rooted in relational therapy. I meet you as a person—not just a clinician—to build a secure space that fosters growth. I provide a holistic, trauma-informed approach, integrating evidence based practice with mindfulness techniques. Additionally, I am a trained EMDR clinician.

What you can expect from me

A trusting relationship is a crucial foundation of therapy. During our first session we will spend time getting to know each other and determining if we are a good fit. Next we will establish goals that feel both achievable and empowering. Together we will help you move through life with greater ease, self-awareness, and control over your story.
