Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker by trade who graduated from Hunter College. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, identity, substance use, and suicidal ideation.

My approach to therapy

I use strengths-based therapy influenced by psychodynamic theory, internal family systems, EMDR, DBT, and much more. I also use EMDR as a modality. I approach therapy by meeting you where you're at through a non-judgmental and open-minded lens.

What you can expect from me

My top priority is to create a safe and secure place for you. This means allowing you to determine a lot of how we work while also having me bring awareness to what I think could be best for you after I get to know you better. This could mean you prefer worksheets or you prefer to talk more or you prefer advice...I pivot based off your preferences and priorities.
